I just got a MBGE. I am waiting on a nest so i havent used it yet. I am going to use it on my balcony. I live on the 10th floor of an eleven story building so there is always plant of air circ. However my neighbors balcony is 100 inches from up from mine. Its concrete painted with a non slip pain. I have dropped hot coals on my balcony before and nothing happened. So i think its pretty heat resistant. Has anyone ever had any issues with melting vinyl or anything during a high heat sear or clean? How tall does the heat plume rise? Ive seen a few pics of the blue jet flame at nigh and looks like its gets about 2 feet. Any advice is appreciate. Im hopefully firing it up tomorrow. I have laser temperature reader that I will use to check the heat during the cook.
Thanks from a newbie!

I cook three times a week under vinyl covered porch, less than 100 inches away. After two years no warping no discoloration. Been up there a few times on the ladder during cooks to see how hot and feel nothing frankly. My experience. Large egg 80% high temp cooks,.Visit my blog, dedicated to my Big Green Egg Recipies at http://www.bigtsbge.blogspot.com You can also follow my posts on FaceBook under the name Keep On Eggin' or the link http://www.facebook.com/#!/pages/Keep-On-Eggin/198049930216241

Thanks! I should have been more clear. The balconys are 100 inches apart. So the top of my MBGE will be around 60 Inches from the bottom of my neighbors. Am i just being paranoid?
