As I understand things, they would be equal as long as the feed dial and blowera are set the same for each.

In my opinion,depends on when you check it.In stove mode,wide open,is max.In room temp mode,I think the newer the control board,it "may" taper back the heat,the closer it gets to the board setting.Just some experiments i have done with 2 boards in my stove.
Good point. If the room temp approached 85 +*F in room temp mode the stove would begin throttling back.

Stove temp cranked will just keep cranking till you run out of pellets or melt.
room temp has its benefits but can be finicky if the probe is in a bad location

I believe you're correct that in room it throttles back as the target temperature is approached. Large house, room with high ceilings. I'm enjoying the extra heat!
