    Thermoworks RFX First Impressions

    Got to try my RFX last night. 14hr smoke on a pork butt in my RecTeq Bull. Didn't have any battery issues and everything lasted with plenty to spare. I did proactively change the update intervals to the max (i.e. least number of updates), just to make sure on the first cook. Seems like it...

    Thermoworks RFX First Impressions

    Thank you to all the early adopters for hammering out a lot of issues (normally something I'd be doing, I could see a lot of spreadsheet tabs tracking data). One thing that immediately bugged me is the inability to charge with a USB C to C cable (or USB PD). Why? I did confirm that plugging...

    Thermapen Mk4 Grey Overstock $74.25

    I couldn't resist this price, seems to be the lowest they've ever done for the Mk4 (was 79.20 over the holidays). https://www.thermoworks.com/Thermapen-Mk4 Keep in mind, it is the grey one only and only until they "run out of stock". This is NiB, not refurb, returns, open box, etc.

    Thermoworks Smoke Wifi Gateway Now Available (kinda)

    Did my first smoke with the wifi gateway. Just a quick 2 hours on a 2lb tri-tip. Definitely still had some problems.  Several times when I went to open the graph on my phone (Android), it seemed to terminate the existing graph and start a new one.  So the smoke is spread across like 4 different...

    Just Ordered a New Thermometer - 6 channel

    Looks interesting, but boy do I worry about the plastic looking back end of each probe (not the cord wrap, but the connection point to the stainless cable).  I know it says the probes can withstand 482 degrees, but I feel like that is the metal part of the probe.  Be interested to hear how that...

    Thermoworks Smoke Wifi Gateway Now Available (kinda)

    Got my Wifi Gateway  today and I'm really disappointed with the Android app.  The iDevice app seems to work just fine on my iPad though Problems encountered so far: 1) You have to manually type in your Wifi SSID instead of being presented with a list like you get with Chromecast setup.  My...

    Thermoworks Smoke Wifi Gateway Now Available (kinda)

    The Smoke itself is still 99.  The Wifi gateway is 89.  So the two together are 188.  But there's no requirement to get the Wifi gateway to use the Smoke.  Yes two probe inputs.  I gotta say that after my first smoke with the Smoke, I'm really liking it over my Maverick 733 Smoke open box sale...

    Mine arrives tomorrow.  I'll have to figure out what my next smoke is (I just did two briskets last weekend)

    Thermoworks Smoke Wifi Gateway Now Available (kinda)

    Ordered mine.  Can't wait to try it out.  Wish I had some referrals though as that would have dropped 10% off.  I can't get their danged referral thing to work at all.  I tried sending to my wife so she could buy this, it said it went thru but she never got an email. Clicking on the referral...

    Thermoworks Smoke Wifi Gateway Now Available (kinda)

    I got an email from Thermoworks this morning informing me the Wifi gateway would finally become available next week.  But they're offering current Smoke owners (I just got mine in the open box sale) the chance to buy it first.  Same price (i.e. no discount), but maybe early access before it...
