Very nice job ! I think you'll enjoy sleeping through the night quite well! The Young Lady in the Pic's looks warm and comfortable! She looks like she's looking forward to spending more time with you too!

Normal if the FR is high when lighting. Try temporally lowering the set point temp about 10* below room temp and let the FR get to around 30 or less before lighting; Once things are leveled out it will be good. It just does not know how much coal is on the grate and sees that the temp is behind for a long time so it will feed at max rate.

Ok will try the temperature set back next time it's all levied out and running fine now the feed rate was at 99 after I lit the stove. When I get back home I'll take some more pics but the coal tool is mounted on a board inside wall

You can also just leave it on min in the setup menu. Thats what the feeder will run.

Just when you are lighting it.

Maybe just for the first 40 min or so.

I would trust the accuracy of the coal trol . But we can match it if you want.
