Just wondering how many cook with the DIGIQ all of the time and if so do you leave the mount attached?

    I only use mine for an over night low and slow. Otherwise it's in a zip top bag in my utility room. Except for the adapter, it stays in my smoke shack on a shelf.

    I only use mine usually for an overnight slo cook or when I will not be around. Just used it today to cook some jerky for 8 hrs. while I was away. I really love the newer Digi-Q as compared to my older competitor.
    Everyday is Saturday and tomorrow is always Sunday.

    I use mine almost all the time. I especially like it when starting a fire, it really speeds things up. The only time I take it off is when I am doing a high temperature sear. Maybe I use it too much but that's what I bought it for. It is my favorite eggsessory.

    I leave mine attached all the time. If doing low and slow or anything under 400 then I use it to regulate the temps. If doing a nuclear burn to 650 or more then I remove the pit temp sensor but still leave the fan attached and let it run full tilt. The fan helps to light the egg faster and keep it burning hot. No reason to take it off. Even if you don't want to use the fan you can still turn it off and use the sliding damper on the fan to adjust the airflow.
