Much like you I have a Chargriller smokin pro, and in the cold winter months in Northern Michigan, it ate logs like crazy and the constant vent tending in the winter stunk...
I bought a Chargriller Akorn specifically for that reason.. I smoked on it all winter last year and on Christmas did a turkey and it was 8 degrees when I started. It used no noticeable difference in fuel from summer and chugged a steady temp all day..
The Akorn paired with the Maverick ET 732 allows me to BBQ all winter while sitting on my couch and only once in a blue moon having to go out and make a vent adjustment..
