Tarr Smoker not working

Post by silversurfer1947 »

The Tarr smoker in on of my burning buildings has stopped working. The fan is fine, but it looks like the heating element, which I assume is a wire wound resistor, has burned out. I shall be grateful if anyone could point me in the direction of a suitable replacement. I assume it is just a case of unsoldering the old one and putting in the new. It has to be cheaper then replacing the whole unit.
