    Well, I ran most of the wiring in my garage...I know for a fact that the "camper" plug in has a 30amp, 125v circuit breaker in the basement..and appropriate wiring run to the garage recepticle.  Also, garage plug ins are all 20 amp, 120vac breakers, with appropriate wiring as well.

    NEED some "electrical" heating element help!

    sorry...guess I could have stated more info.  MOST of my circuits are 20 amp....in this case, I have a 20 amp circuit available, I also have a dedicated 30 amp, 120vac circuit as well.  I'd love to utilize the 30 amp plug in..I assume since it's still 120v, I could run any 120v controller just...

    Should I get a pellet grill/smoker?

    you'll be very happy with the GMG DB.  Its the same one I have had now for a little over 4 years.

    How Many Mes Owners Here?

    SO all you MES owners..I still have my OLD MES sitting here in my shop, gathering dust.  Have any of you put a NEW heating element in it, and controlled it with a PID...so basically you are just using the MES box and adding your own internals.  My old heating element, and controller died years...
