I am using the RecTeq 3rpm auger in my 590. I called and complained about low heat last winter and recteq shipped me the 3rpm one for free. Also, I was told that my original was a 1.1rpm, not a 2. I have zero problem with temp fluctuation. I can hold 180 or 225 without an issue. Opening causes some mildly higher swings than what is talked about here. I am wondering if the motor you put in isn't really compatible with the controller. Maybe the one you installed is actually higher than 3RPM. Might be worth looking at.
