I picked one up but have yet to try it. I've been too lazy to shovel a path to the shed.
Was it easy to light and keep going? Any detectable taste difference?
I guess the Macgyvered Coffee can/soldering gun has been laid to rest.
Are you using pellets or dust?
I have the Amazen Tube Smoker. I've only used it once with the included pellets but I had great results using a large charcoal grill. I just put it onto one of the charcoal pans and used the cooking surface along with the warming rack for my items. I smoked a ton of peppers and some cheese. Peppers got dehydrated and ground for seasoning. Cheese got waxed and saved for later.

I bought a bag of apple wood pellets at BassPro that I'll be using next time I cold smoke. I had no issues with heat or it going out the first time. I lit with a torch as recommended. I think if you follow their specific instructions you'll be fine.
