Picked it up on Saturday and with the help of four other guys pulled out the old Jotul #1 and put the Firelight into place. Finished the piping Sunday afternoon and fired up the first break in fire to 200 degrees. Did the second break in to 300 and then the third up to 400. Set off the damn smoke detectors around midnight when she reached 400 degrees (they didnt go off during the first two burns).

Really cool watching the secondary burn.

She is a beautiful stove and one big hunk of metal. Have to take some pictures and try to post them.
 
Yes, thank you. Now I just need to put in the extra effort and get ahead on cutting/spilting wood for next winter. One thing that will help is the ability to cut 20-22 inch pieces instead of 15-16 for the old Jotul #1.
 
Congratulations. You are in for a world of heat. Hope you know we won't believe ya until we see it. :)
