Was thinking maybe the end of next week, if the weather wanted me to because I need to do a little repiping first and add a pump for the shop.. But I'm starting to think it's going to happen in the next day or two if I can find that darn NRF-25 I've been tripping over for 3 years. Now that I wanna use it, it's nowhere to be found

Yep, I had an old fuel oil burner around that came out of our basement, saved it for something else i the future, now that the future is here and I need it can’t be found anywhere. Looked in all the barns, sheds, etc. Had to buy one of Ebay to convert into a waste oil burner, of course that one came with a L1 or V1 retention head, had to throw that away and start over. I expect to trip over the one I was saving about tomorrow morning.

Ahhhh not really shure, been working too much to pay attention. Warm in the shop though, or was the last time I was in there.

Temps have been crazy warm for this time of year.

But your wood consumption I assume isn't out of control like it was.

Been through just over half a cord since October 12th just heating shop, the house for a few mornings and NO domestic hot water( need too clean the tubes)

Boiler has been down for about a week of that time also.

So no I don't think my issue is fixed, guess I better stack some wood this weekend.

Hmm. Well looks like you need to put a data logging system on like rsi has or controlbyweb to graph where all your btus are going.

Thusrday was beuatiful, so i went home a little early to move some wood around. Smelled kreosote and saw smok coming out of my neighbor OWB, fisrt fire-up for the year.

I am heading out this morning to get mine going. Just had a heater installed in the arravhed garage, to create an insulating affect for the bonus room above and that interior walls adjacent to the garage.

I don't think logstor has anything wrong with it but who knows I guess, there is always a first time. I good temp reading leaving the boiler and leaving the logstor run should handle that. Control by web just came out with this. I think it would work for you, it is wireless. https://www.controlbyweb.com/webrelay-wireless/

Looks cool,   Only problem is buying all the accessories and hooking it all up.

Computer crap is not my thing, maybe the kids could do it for me?

I haven't dealt with them but they look simple. In sure as long as your kids are somewhat computer literate then it would be no problem. I think it is as simple as getting a thermocouple to place where ever you want to put it and plugging it in. It acts like a wifi printer per say I think, it is it's own standalone wifi point which you can address off of your web browser using it's IP address.
