I am wondering what kind of regular temps you guys are getting 280-290? I am wondering if the design of the head is what's giving me higher readings?

Any info would be great.
I have the same issue. It doesn't run right unless it's 280+ and it's still blowing a lot of smoke. I stopped trying to get it below 280 and have been running it where it feels good.
