I'll take a couple of pics when I get my camera out.
It's not installed yet just sitting in the living room.
Not sure if I want to replace my St Croix pepin with it or install the new one somewhere else.
Still have to decide.

I was impressed by the heat the little mini can produce. Seemed to be a decent stove and you stole that one. Nice deal IMO!

Check out this thread:

Nice upgrade to have for them.

Thanks for the link. That was great info on improvements to the mini.
Once I get a feel for how it burns this fall maybe I'll look into the larger burn pot and liner.

I see in your sig you also have a pepin, Are you going to run both stoves?

IMO the upgrades to the mini is pricey but well worth it due to better over all burn quality. I upgraded a friends after reading that post. And the upgraded stove will burn just about any pellet after the improvements. Prior to the improvements it was pretty picky on what went into the hopper. If you plan on burning it on the lower settings this is where the improvements shined! The enlarged burnpot also improved pellet deflection out of the burnpot. My friend heats over 1K sqft and the mini does quit well doing it. All he wished for was a larger hopper to hold more fuel.

I'm going to see how the mini burns this fall.

I may install both in different rooms but haven't decided on that yet.

The new stove came with 4" stove pipe and thimble.

I clicked both links and they didn't work but I can find C-12146 on the Enviro web site. I can't find C-12145 is it C-12135?

oh i see, hearth.com doesn't like links with % marks...
enviro sould stop leaving spaces in thier file names so automated links are cleaner

Seems to be when % and 20 are in the link with no space between them. You can't even post % 20(with no space between) in a sentence. Something about the site software has a small bug in it. Try posting something with % 20(with no space between). It just deletes them.

I will try it right here:-----( )-----: see it doesn't show up! But when I go and edit it the % 20 is there!
