You're welcome

I don't use a louver on the stack but I have spoken to Jotul directly and they told me they don't recommend them. They did say it's possible that the draft is too strong but I kind of think the holes on the bottom of the ash pan make it worse. I thought about plugging them but haven't tried.

I read somewhere that a couple of people use flat magnets to plug those two holes, sounded like a good idea.

Mixed hardwoods. Maple, oak, cherry, walnut. Do you have an Oslo?

Terrible. I would have gotten standard black but my wife wanted this. She would have gone with non enameled if she knew it flaked off. It started flaking after one season.

I had this same experience. First, make sure you have a stove top thermometer and situate it in a back corner (recommended location by Jotul). Next, you can be rest assured that you're not overfiring as long as it doesn't read higher than 650°. Third, the ash door is tricky because you can turn to lock the handle but it's possible that it's not seated properly. Open it back up and keep pressure forward while closing and turning to lock. I accidentally overfired a bit by having this door not completely seated. Fourth, keep the air control open until the top reaches about 450°, then slide it all the way closed. The only way it will keep climbing up above 650 from there is if you're burning a full load of dry kindling.

@@crhpjeff thank you for your input. I just looked at the Ash door and it wasn't locked! As soon as I closed it I started to get long lazy flames and the damper is definitely working now. Thanks again.

@@crhpjeff 😅😅

@@crhpjeffhello i am about 5 days from buying a new wood stove to heat my 3000 sq home from my basement and the F500 V3 is at the top of my list how has your F500 V3 been treating you i have read good and bad things about the new V3 cat version has it been reliable does it produce a generous amount of heat and have you had any issues at all with it with the cat or anything else and does it get good burn times for being marketed as an efficient stove

@@kodybecker89 the stove is great. Much different than my last without a cat. A couple notes on it: stick with the black. My wife wanted the painted one but it's chipping away on it's own. I think my cat will need to be replaced in a year or so. Not sure if that's because I had a couple hot fires or something else. I had one when the bottom door was slightly unseated in my first few burns. I had another when I had to walk away once. There's a gap that needs to be sealed on the front right corner and now smoke comes out when the door is open. It's not a super hot stove in general and only is very hot in front of the door. The stove doesn't do well with some hard wood that's been seasoned only one year. With dry wood, it stays at full temp for 1.5 hrs after loading a hot stove and shutting the air intake all the way down so I usually load about every two hours in cold months. You can tell when it's too cold for the cat when you stop seeing that reburn flame. I was surprised how short it stays hot. There's still coals after 8 hrs but it's not putting out a ton of heat.

Depends on what you consider burn time. I was pretty shocked with this stove. For optimal heat output keeping the catalytic element going, I would say 1.5-2 hours on a full load of seasoned hardwood. Keeping a flame lit, I would say 6 hours. I can put a full load in before bed and it will always be out by morning no matter what time I go to bed. In my log cabin, I end up having to add logs every 2 hours.

@@crhpjeff Jotul states a 12 hour burn time so I’m thinking burn time as enough coals left to relight without kindling.

@@wobdeehomestead most of the time, I have to relight it every morning unless I get up in the middle of the night to load. If I don't empty the ash, I might get lucky and start it with a bellows.

From what you said, it’s really does not have a long burn time. Would you still pick this stove?

Some people with taller chimneys have found this stove overdrafts. To compensate this a stove pipe damper may help. I’ve also heard there are two unrestricted holes in the ash pan housing that can let too much air up under the fire decreasing burn times. Try blocking these holes with a magnet or run the stove with the ash pan full of ash. This stove should get easy overnight burns.

No, only on the door hinge where the enamel grinds against the enamel.

I would say it's directly behind it.

I made him put his shells where his mouth is and I've got it on video that he agreed

Did he make any for this convention or is this a Fargo competition thing? She will be in all of the large ball competitions next year including Lvl 4.

For Fargo. Ben wanted to do a 10" canister but Hailee said she'd let him use their wasp. I think they'll do 8s

Ok, that's who Hailee was talking about. I told her she better not be betting on cans since she's never made one before. Ball shells are her game though and we are happy to share our SPYDER (WASP Clone) with anyone who needs to use it.

It should be fun to watch her kick his butt.
