Stampede Cold weather cover

[99xracer]

Looking to see what other 590'ers are using for a cold weather cover since rec-tec doesn't make one for that model?

Thanks

I use a veranda cover from Amazon. 35 bucks. Works great. Get the large size. Hopefully the link works...

I have a 680 and bought the Rec-Tec cold weather cover. I wonder why they don't make one for the 590.

My original plan was to use a welder blanket - I've read about people using those with pretty good success. You can pick a cheap one up at harbor freight and see if it works.

I will echo the suggestion by @wildblue. You can get a welders blanket for cheap compared to one that is "made for a grill" and it works just fine.

I've used one twice just this year already.

Is there tie downs or straps built into the Veranda ?

Bought a 4' x 6' welder blanket at Harbor Freight. Made the cut outs for the smoke vents and handles. I secure it in place with strong magnets I have laying around. Not pretty but I think it will be functional when cold weather arrives cuz I gotta cook year around.

like your front shelf!

I just noticed that you also have modded your wifi antenna... adding a larger one to the exterior of the hopper box...

Could you please share how you did that? Story behind it? Were you having issues with the connection?

Wifi would have trouble synching with the router. Got tired of fighting it, then I stumbled onto the thread below. Now it locks onto the router like an alligator.

I know this is old but I'll second. The antenna made a huge difference.
