PG500 Insulation

Since I can't travel back in time and purchase a PG1000, I've been daydreaming about ways to insulate my PG500.  For smoke mode only, of course...  Was wondering if anyone else has toyed with this at all?  Maybe even on a treager or some other thin walled poorly insulated beast?

Last weekend, I fashioned up a bit of a stocking cap for my PG500.  Basically wrapped the top half in some of that insulation that is basically bubble wrap sandwiched between foil.  The wind was blowing like crazy and it was relatively cool and I definitely noticed an improvement in the smoker being able to maintain temp.  I made it so that it can be easily removed when I want to run higher temps for grilling.

Anybody played with any other materials or have any other ideas?
