Ambient??? Crazy, you are killing me. I had to get the webster out for that word. As we all know these smokers are 850* insulated so that should help on ambient air temp.
I'm hoping that if I tell the wife that a gentleman called Crazy Smokin Larry assured me that it would be cheaper to run a FEC than my CS020. She will let me trade-in.
Pags, you sure that cs150 has a 750 watt element?
slk, Is there a reason that you are concerned about the cost or just curious?????
