Maybe I will try this at some point on a really cold day here.

With only the coil burner but in turn has a smaller bottom damper hole compared to the 100SS. The 100SS has the big oven burner and coil for the smoke. PK100 would still hold better than other smaller model brands

I had the bottom damper facing toward the garage door to limit the wind from going in. I did have some condensation dripping out the bottom of the smoker. Hit my times and smoke schedule perfectly. From what i have read with others struggling and suggesting to use weld blankets to help just makes me even happier with my purchase.
