    MES 30 and AMPS Wont stay lit

    Yeah I tried all of that. Funny thing, I just fired up a bunch of oak pellets and threw them in there. They burned just fine... I think it was the pellets... I was using cherry that came with the AMPS..... Has anybody else encountered that?

    MES 30 and AMPS Wont stay lit

    I have been trying to use my AMPS in my MES30 and I cant keep it lit. It burns great outside the box but wont inside. I have tried different placements of it even removing the pellet tray. Has anyone had this problem? Thanks
