Here are the mods I have done to my Bradley Smoker.
The cabinet it is located in. Just a cheap garden cabinet from Wal-Mart I believe...
Doors open to reveal what is inside...
The bottom compartment where the smoke generator is located...
The spent pucks drop down the y-pipe into a tray...
Inside the pipe where the smoke generator heating element is gets very hot in that enclosed space so copper heat sinks were attached(pipe clamps) and a pipe above feeds air from a thermostatically controlled blower down onto the heatsinks to remove the heat...
Here is the fan mounted(bathroom exhaust fan)...
And here is the thermostat that is attached to the smoke pipe. When the pipe gets warm it will trigger the fan to come on...
Now to the second floor. This is where the smoke pipe(dryer vent hose) comes into the Bradley cabinet...
And here is a view of it coming into the cabinet...
And here is the 900W finned heating element upgrade. The stock one is 500W and underpowered IMHO...
And here is the dual probe PID that controls the smoker...
Factory front panel was removed due to it cracking. I made a new metal front panel and removed the sliding temp control(not needed due to having a PID) and added a on/off switch for the heating element. This switch allows me to leave the PID on to monitor the temps and not worry about the heating element coming on while cold smoking...
And a metal reinforcement of the bottom of the door due to the plastic cracking and the door almost falling off. The bottom hinge is now attached to the metal panel and is rock solid...
And here is the convection fan installed in the upper left hand corner of the cabinet. This fan circulates plenty of air inside the cabinet for convection smoking and dehydration...
View of the outside of the fan. It has fins that cool the motor when it is on...
And lastly a vent pipe to carry the smoke up and away from the patio deck...
