Cookshack has the smoke enhancer that goes over the firepot. http://www.cookshack.com/store...PA026-Smoke-Enhancer I use the Amaze-N Tube smoker in mine every now and then with good results. https://www.amazenproducts.com...sp?ProductCode=AMNTS
Smoke on 180 for a longer period. I'll do 8 hours for briske.
I bought the smoke enhancer. Tried it yesterday, I put pellets in it, they did nothing, after 2 hours they were just like I put them in.
Temp was set at 240 deg.s

Several suggestions for you:
You'll need to ignite the pellets in your smoke enhancer, using a propane torch. I founf wood chunks (sold by Cookshack) to be more effective.
Did you try SmokinOkie's 2 stage smoking suggestion? I'm not familiar with the Traeger controller but basically you want to run the FEC on low for 8 hrs. for maximum smoke output; followed by setting to a higher temp to finish the meat.
You may want to follow Andy's suggestion on the tube smoker. They work very well.
