Understood, but if it topped out at 800, sure, it's hot, but it should be manageable and not a cause for fear.
I don't fear it i just would like it to be more controllable a 800 stove is really not needed to heat my house. I would be happy if i get longer burns and have it top out at like 650. But maybe split size comes in to play here my birch is a little on the small size.
