Yep - I saw that. I'm only planning to use the old MES for low-temp smoking. (ie-venison sausages, cheese, etc) I have a pellet grill for the rest. When i get a chance to test it out I'll post an update

Well, at the risk of opening myself up to some mockery here - i didn't go with a PID. I'm going to give the Willhi WH1803A a shot. IF the reviewers were honest, they say it can hold temp within a degree or two. For $50, if it doesn't do the trick I'll find another use for it and buy the Auber.

Thanks much Tallbm! I just about threw away my MES after the controller bit the dust. Glad I didn't as the Rec Tec i got to replace it doesn't allow me do a low temp smoke. Followed your directions and it all worked just as advertised. Looking forward to smoking some sausages and cheese in...
