    Hello
    This Massive 12 VDC Auger Motor is 22 years old and runs like brand new! In fact all the DC motors are original! The stove just needed new snap discs! Guess what pellet stove?

    Excellent guess, very very close! The Advent looks similar and has DC motors like this stove.
    However the old Reliant Advent stove has a different style auger motor and a very different control panel.
    Advent is out of biz now.
    Pic 1 - Advent Control panel
    Pic 2 - Newer 12 VDC auger motor
    Pic 3 - control panel for this stove
    Pic 4 - Date tag on this stove - yes 1998 and it has an igniter!!

    The answer is Essex which is also a very old stove.
    The Essex came in a DC model or an AC model.
    The newer stove that has a similar design is the Magnun Baby Countryside DC model which has just recently been discontinued.
    The current stove now is the AC version of the Magnum Baby CountrySide with all AC motors

    Checkout the convection blower. 22 years old and working well.
    Also the DC control panel and main board that runs an igniter too back in 1999 still working is simple and a good deal?
