what are all the upgrades?

You joined 3 years ago and only 3 posts. Where have you been?

It's pretty basic. The FE's have been the same since the last mod (change to the ramp to get UL approval).

New change is the IQ3 controller, replaces the Traeger controller. There's an announcement in the forum and you can also go to the CS website for full details. It's a significant change in the controllers from what Traeger did. It's an fully electronic controller (basically same as other line of smokers that CS has) with fully adjustable temp (you set a specific temp) AND a probe that allows you to cook and hold. Cook it to a specific temp and when it senses that temp, it will drop to 140 automatically. So you can get even MORE sleep.

No more announced changes coming. Think the IQ3 took long enough.

"Where have you been?"
I've been missing all the action, apparently.

honestly, at one time I frequented many forums and just got overloaded. Plus once I had my main pit I sat back and just read about Q in one or two spots. ...Thought it was about time to get out of my comfort zone.

looking forward to more pictures of your rig...
