Bear, I set my smoker to 225F and hit go. When my smoker said 195F on the display, my Mav was reading 225F. The smoker temps were waaaaay off. No wonder I was getting ridiculously high temps in the beginning.
I will test it next time, but the way I see this going down is set my smoker to 195F, wait for the temps on my Mav to do a full overrun to say 245F, then wait for them to drop to 225F, and set my smoker temp to 210F, and keep nudging my smoker temps up until the Mav temp and smoker temp are the same.
I dont know why the smoker probe is so far behind the Mav probe on startup. This is what cause the ridiculous swings. Makes no sense. Not good.
