Bradley not getting hot

[swampthing]

I have one of the bottom line bradley smokers with the slide temp. dial. I used it for the 4th time the other day and it didnt get hot. The bisquits burned but the element didnt work. I tried all the connections with no luck. Any ideas. I won this unit and didnt get a bill of sale with it.

My 6rack digital's element crapped out the 2nd time I used it. Bradley had one on my doorstep within 3 days, at no charge. Give them a phone call they're out of Vancouver

Smoke Generator crapped out 4th use, like Bartel said, had a new 1 in a week.

How cold was it outside? They don't heat up well in near zero temperatures. Poorly insulated.

element is probably screwed had to replace mine

I have a Centro digital,also just crap,it is either too hot or to cold. Best one I ever owned is still the Big Chief, not to much of a problem , but manual, It actually finally fell apart after a many years that's why I bought the Centro thinking I am going to a better smoker.What a mistake, I just loved my Chief and miss it to this day, sorry didnt mean to steal your thread.

Having similar issues with mine, ended up messing up a 10 lb peperoni batch! Was tinkering with it yesterday, unpluged the wires and put them back in and it was giving off heat again. Might flash it up for a few hours and see if it will come up to temp.

I google it and I guess they had issues in the past with bad elements but I thought it would have been sorted by now.

Well what ever it was it looks like it sorted itself, put it on for an hour and it climbed up to 255F.
