    Opened up a bag of easy heats to feed the stove this morning and this is what I found. It's hard to tell but that pellet on top is almost 2" long :eek:

    Reminds me of some old days of drafting eatonpcat, before C.A.D. came along.

    I learned on drafting tables and began learning C.A.D. when it was in it's infancy. I then worked using a different software for an Electrical Production/Transmission company and then ended up changing careers years later. LOFL

    Ok good, i figured it would break them up. I'm not real impressed with these easy heats. They definately arent putting off the same heat as the natures own and independence softwoods. Good thing i only grabbed two bags

    Not a fan of Easy Heats. Lowest BTU pellet I have came across and also full of plastic

    The Sets? They are normally short. Very short

    My PTL's are an inch or less with average around 3/4".

    I burned one bag of the heats and set the other bag aside They we're long, dusty, and didn't put off crap for heat. More like easy no heats.

    Burning some sets right now and they seem pretty good. But im impressed with the independence softwoods i have. Those suckers put off some heat and aren't all that ashy

    I hope not! LOL But they're better than nothing at home for making a quick drawing or sketch. We switched to CAD while I was still teaching.....but I don't feel the need to have that software on the computer at home.

    It's a shame that they don't put out a better product. They're only a stone's throw away from our shop and dirt cheap. We had a truck come in from up in the North East last week. The driver said his back haul was a load of Easy Heat destined for a dealer up in connecticut. With all of the pellets up there, who in their right mind is buying Easy heat?
