CS 50 Temps too low?

First thing we normally ask is do you have this on an extension cord and if so, what gauge. It is susceptible to powerloss on some extension cords.

Smokin'

Nope direct to the outlet. I reported a fire in the cs a couple weeks ago wonder if this had anything to do with it? Got any tests I can perform?

RaiderBill,

Try running the unit empty. Sent it at 250 and moniter the temperature for 1 hour. It should hit temperature in 15 to 20 minutes and then should fluctuate between 270 and 230.

It sounds to me like you may have a bad thermostat. I would suggest calling Tony here at Cookshack (800) 423-0698, he can help you with the problem.

Thanks,

I'll run it dry tonight and see what's up.

I fired up my baby last night,
Set on 250. It pretty much ran right up to 286 then came back down to 277 and stayed there for 1.5 hours. I then let out the heat by opening the door and set it on 225. it keep at right around 192.
