    This is my first full year with the stove. I'm glad to say I haven't really needed it much warmer than the 450ish mark but like the idea I can go higher! I do recall close to 500 at one time now that I think of it. It will hold the mid 400s for quite a few hours and that helps greatly over the quick peak and glide of the tube stove we used to have. Also if I'm home I can keep bumping the air up to maintain the temps for even longer. I guess I will have to kick it into the next gear this weekend with the temps that are coming. Highs in the single digits below zero, lows close to -20.

    Now I feel challenged to head for the upper 500s! Thanks for the peace of mind Backwoods Savage :thumbs:

    Stoke it up my friend! I just reloaded my itty bitty insert at 450*. Upper 500 is nothing to worry about!
