It will definitely get you at the temperature you wish to be at +/15 to 20 degrees according to my maverick probes.
it allows me to cook a brisket overnite without worrying about setting the alarm every two hours to check my fire, i know this can hold the temp where i want more or less until it burns out of wood, which can be 20 hours at 250+ with the firebox full.
very simple to set up, just need an electrical cord to power it. I used my Maverick 72 probes to verify the temps at both the grill surface and the daisy wheel, the grill temp is very close to the setting on the surface of the control box.
My Egg must be quite efficient, i have to shut the baffle to a lower level to restrict airflow or she'll get over temp'd and there is no way to cool with this, just to get the temp. This is a lower cost alternative to what is out there and doesn't have near the bells and whistles as the higher priced alternatives, but that is why i never owned those others! this does what I need it to do and if you own an BGE or any kamodo-style cooker this will fit the bill!
I unhesitatingly recommend this at this early stage of ownership, if this keeps up and gives me a few years or better I will be very happy.
One word of advicePATIENCE! this doesn't respond instantly, it takes a few minutes at times to speed up the fan so don't sweat it, it will get there for you and keep you there if you have it adjusted properly and that is easy s soon as you "learn" your cooker's efficiency. This and a good quality temp probe and you will have great success with your cooksTemp Control is what it is all about as you smoker's know!

I bought this for use with my Broil King Keg and it works great! One tip for the BKK is to set it 50F below your target temp when starting out. The BKK is so efficient that the IQ110 tends to overshoot a bit at first, but once it's warmed up the IQ110 nails the temp. It held 225F perfectly for a 20 hr pork butt cook, and the butt turned out great!
