Does anyone have a dual probe meat thermometer that works with an IPhone? I did a search on Google and came up with only 1. If you have one or know of a site that I can read about it please let me know. Thanks and Happy Smoking!!!
Both Guru and Stoker have a wifi version of their device that can be accessed on the iPhone with an internet connection. Coupled with a fan you can control the cooker via the 'net. Without the fan it's a thermometer.
iDevices' iGrill is a Bluetooth thermometer. They are a sponsor of this site so I guess its OK to link to it: http://store.igrillinc.com/igrill-black/ I heard you can get a cheaper price by going to the ATT store.
There's also a new Thermapen, Model #292-601, that works with iPhone and Android.
I have an iGrill and though I've only used in a few times, I really like it.
I have an Igrill with dual probes and it is major sucky as far as I'm concerned. Suppose to have a range of around 200+ feet. At 75 feet I lose connection. Too many times it never makes connection to my phone when I fire it up.

That's a shame. I sit in the house and monitor the grill in my easy chair. I did find that when it gets warm is looses connectivity so I try to keep the receiver transmitter shaded during the day. Have you upgraded to Version 2.7.0? If not give that a try. They say they fixed Bluetooth connectivity issues in that version.
It does go thru batteries - I solved that with rechargeables though alkaline batteries are 1.5 v each and the NiMH are 1.2 v each therefore the battery detector never gets 4 bars because it measures battery voltage as battery life. NiMH batteries may not have the full voltage as alkaline batteries but they stay at that voltage a lot longer.
