Ok sounds good, I thought it had something to do with moisture getting into the insulation of the double wall pipe or something but I can't remember. Not sure what I will do about mounting though. I don't want to weld a nut to that stainless pipe. I'll have to see how long the probe is too once the gauge gets here, I think the double wall pipe is about 1 inch in thickness.

Save your money, I'm ordering stoves today and I'll have them stick a couple of extra temp gauges on the truck, they are nice because they have a second pointer that shows the highest temp reached since last reset.

Nice, I could think of a few places to stick one of those in the grain drying setup.

Alrighty, I will hold off on drilling the hole. The one I bought from ebay was only 6 bucks so no big loss. I will stop by early October to get it from you when I head up to close camp.

Never seen above 320 degrees! That's at this last show in Lancaster where the ambient temp was close to 80 degrees and we were running it hard!
