Dumb question. I purchased the stack thermometer from the Leader catalog. Does the triangle looking clip go inside the stack? Otherwise, I dont see the need for it. If it goes inside, I guess I will have to wait until next year to permanantly install it.

I think the clip is for an oven or something. I didn't use it. Just make sure you drill a small enough hole so you have to force the probe through it and it should stay in place just fine. Mine is done that way and hasn't moved yet.

I put my clip on the inside of the stack with the leader thermometer it work well so far I'm just bummed I can't get my stack above 650.

Jason, this is my first year for a stack thermometer, too. We drilled a small hole, just smaller than the thermo stem. In fact, there should be a small machined collar, or band, on the stem. That is where it holds the stem in place. About 4" stick out of the stack. That clip is not needed.
