I use mine a lot. I also use it to cold smoke just started recently. You use a pellet tube and never turn the actual smoker on just use the cabinet . I use just salt and brown sugar on salmon let it soak over night . Then take it out and rinse . Set on the trays and let it sit in the fridge on the tray over night . Then in the smoker . Lights pellets until I get good smoke and let it go for like 8 hours . Need to keep it around 70-80 degrees .
If your on Facebook there is a masterbuilt group with a million recipes they smoke everything lol very good info on there .
I have a 16' Lund Explorer with 50 on it . Have a 80 terrova up front and 2 group29 deep cycles . Needed to modify the front compartment to get the batteries to fit and not lose any storage . I'll snap a pic tomorrow
There's a reason all helix units are being sold off at less than half. Even the new onyx units are junk. Same rule applies you get what you pay for. It's on clearance for a reason
I have a Lowrance Elite 7 chirp on the front of my boat. Also junk. Processor is so slow loses position at low speeds while navigating and take time to lock back in
They all work depends on your expectations. Down imaging for me is key.
