So you've got the 800 watt vs 1200 watt elements. You've got more wood chips required in the 40". You've got a larger area to heat overall which = more power drawn/longer element burn times.
So it's obvious that a 40" smoker costs more to run, but by how much? Has anyone run a test using something like the Kill A Watt P3?
