Thanks for the responses guys.

Hayman, I did open up the back panel and there is no diagram inside or outside. These heating coils are not run in series. One element is run off the red wire and the other element is run off the black wire. Both share the same wire that is connected to the neutral. That is why I was wondering is it would be OK to put a jumper between the red and the black and then wire it up for 120v. I have a 120v 20 amp breaker plug near where the smoker is going to go.

Bill, I got a pdf of the manual from Stuart this morning. If you can send me a wiring diagram, I would really appreciate it. Would anything in the unit be damaged if I wire it up for 120v? Or would the only thing that happens is the breaker would trip?

Maybe I can find 2 plugs that are out of phase and run two power cords. Then I can test the unit and see if it even still works before I run a new line from the service panel.
