Yep,we have learned to live with the smoke timer,althought Cookshack is working to perfect their own version.

don't know where your info comes from but when I ordered mine last week John Shiflet said they are not working on any new controlers. I specifically asked this question

Quigley,
Are you really a Quigley? That is my grandmother's name. Nice to meet you.

Sorry, Quigley is just a screen name. I got it from the name of an obstacle course at USMC Quantico. My son is a Marine LT.

Last year I ordered some controllers from Ortech. They had some left over from traeger. I don't know if they have any more but you could call them.

After all of the problems last weekend with controllers in Dillon there was some serious discussion about replacing the controller with an Allen Bradley PLC. It might be even worth it to get someone to design a new controller that is a little more robust. There was talk that Cookshack was working on one but if they are not then I think we need to start working on one. Just my 2 cents.

In Traeger Talk, smoke is a temperture setting (120-140). The controler position could have been marked 130 instead. Everything I have read and observed says the controller works exactly the same in the smoke position as in any of the other positions. The auger runs continuously until the set temp is met. The run delay timer kicks in to keep the fire burning until the temp drops and the controller continuously runs the auger until the temp returns to the set temp.

Whithin the last two weeks, I was told that Cookshack was working on a new controller. I hope that is true.
