Used regular coals I had. Only last about 2 hours with temp above 200. Thinking lump charcoal is an obvious must for times longer than that.

How often to you add to the fire with wood or more charcoal? Doing a pork butt first and trying to figure out how to keep the temp up for that 6-8 hours that is need minimum

Have a double handful of unburned lump coal and wood on the bottom of the smoker

Add hot coals/wood to the top of that
Airflow is important, and keep your wood wet for actual smoke.
I add coals and wood every so often to keep it at 250 if I'm smoking
