    I just reloaded it. 62° mostly sunny and windy out. Looks like this might last until the sun goes down. Chunky monkeys

    Do you have an IR thermometer?
    Every one of those Rutland thermometers I've had are about a hundred degrees off

    I imagine your house must smell as good as mine does right now! I'm sitting.out on my porch with the windows and doors open. It's kinda like after eating bad Mexican. 20171016_182953.jpg

    It's not a problem monitoring your stove as long as you know how far off it is.
    My digital thermometer is about 60 degrees off

    Lol! Its actually smelling like clothes that aren't smelling good from the dryer. Like they haven't been soaped. The paint isn't thick at all. Just a simple powdercoat.

    HDRock I took the IR around the glass, stove top and then the pipe. So since it wasn't consistent I'll mention that on the door it was around 630F, maybe 550F in spots where no fire was around. Stove top was registering close to 500F in the middle by the Rutland just as you said its registering at 400F. 95-100 degrees off depending on a 5 inch square. Back of the stove area was just shy of 400. Pipe registered about 177F in the middle.
