So, I am initiating the new iGrill2 Thermometer and iDevice App. I set up the ambient and to meat probes like this.
I've got the ambient (probe 1) up front center with the red sleeve
Probe 2 is in the butt in back on the right (also a red sleeve)
Probe 3 is in the butt front and left (yellow sleeve)
I set up my old Redi Check to track differences.
four hours in the ambients have leveled off, but note the difference between iGrill probe 3 and the meat temp on the Redi Chek. These are in the same butt, about 2 inches apart at the same angle, yet they are 20 degrees apart. not sure which is more accurate, but I've gone by the redo chek for a couple years with no issues.
Next thing to note, the iGrill has a power save feature they call a Proximity Sensor. If your smart device (iPhone, iPad) leaves the apx 30' area, the device goes to "Sleep" when you come back in the area with your smart device, it wakes up and send a signal again. I'm kinda confused by this, since the Range of the Bluetooth is 150' line of site. Whats the point of having that range if it turns off when you go past 30'? I sent a trouble request to try to clarify this. We will see what they say. So far though, I like the interface and the app is full of features.
Note that I am still trying to get figure out all the features, there may be a way to "Turn off " the proximity sensor to extend your apps range.
