I made mine only 12" long, stopping right by the firepot... it still gets clogged but only after a few uses, not every cook.Glad to help!
I'll also add that - creosote build-up is a reoccurring thing that must be addressed after every single use of the Smoke Daddy. After about 3-4 hours of use, so much creosote formed inside of my 25" extension pipe that smoke would no longer flow into my Traeger, even with the air pump on high. So, I'm re-evaluating whether I'll continue to use the 25" extension and just stick with the factory length, or buy an extra-long pipe cleaner to clean out my extension pipe after every cook. This of course adds a little more time and cleanup after every use (about 5-10 minutes), so again - something to keep in mind.
For my own personal use, I think it's 100% worth it. For everyone else, YMMV...
