So, if it maintains a temp by burning more pellets, doesn’t that mean the amount of smoke varies too?

Yes, Traegers aren’t known for their overly Smokey flavor.

Man the smokers get horrible ratings.  My kids bought me a Masterbuilt a couple years ago and it never finished the first smoke.  Took back to Cabelas and the second one didn't either.  Finally just took the cash back and I've been using my old cylinder ever since.  The problem with the cylinder is it runs hot.

Might try a Komodo, all that ceramic should hold temperature.

Get one set right and they will hold for 10 hours (small size and longer for larger). It only takes one or two times to learn the trick.

I've never heard that.  I always thought they wrapped the meat after a while so it doesn't get TOO smoky.

A foil or paper wrap, known as a crutch, is used to help the meat past "the stall" without drying out. If you do not add to the wood or charcoal, the smoke is pretty much done after three hours. If you are using a two chamber and real wood logs, and not their coals, the smoke keeps coming.
