    Newby : Looking @ possible smoker options ?

    Forgot to mention I also have an MES40 with an auber PID controller and the "mailbox mod" for a smoke tube. I use it almost exclusively for sausages, snack sticks, and jerky. Great set up for really low temp stuff

    Auber PID not working

    So I bought an Auber WS 1211H PID to use with a basic Cuisinart analog smoker. Aubers customer service said all I have to do is set the dial on my smoker to high, plug smoker into back of PID then plug controller into wall outlet. Did that and nothing. I changed the PID to single step mode to...

    Is this a good deal??

    I'd grab the Joe for that price for sure. Maybe find a used 40 on FB? The decision to go Auber is mostly determined but what you're running. If sausage/cured stuff like hams, Auber FOR SURE. If not, PID not so critical. In fact, if no sausage/cured stuff I'd tell you get a used Smokefire on...

    Is this a good deal??

    C'mon over the the PID side!!! The $50 you save and spend on a PID controller and doing the MES rewire would be a great investment, plus you add a "D" to the end of your name here and you become the pid guy!!! :D As you can tell I am biased but there is plenty of evidence as to why I I'm on big...

    ...https://www.smokingmeatforums.com/forums/roll-call.133/ Not enough experience with electric units past my Big Chief. Can you convert to an Auber PID ? Not sure if they have a Wi-Fi connect unit. You're in the neighborhood. My winter home is 4 corners or the end of west bound US-192...

    Masterbuilt doesn't get hot

    ...idiot, so there isn't a voltmeter to be found at my house. Is there anything I should look at or do, or do I just take it to the curb? I don't think installing an Auber pid would change anything since I don't have a fluctuation problem - I have a heat problem. Thanks for your thoughts...

    That's one thing I absolutely love with the Auber PID. We were below 0° all last week and was still able to cold smoke bacon. Set the Auber at 37° and let it purr for 5 hrs each day. No worry of freezing.

    Rewiring MES40 help?

    It wasn't too bad. Have the app installed? I would play around with it. You will have some "fun". Wifi only works on 2.4Ghz band so you might have to disable 5G. Also make sure you have decent wifi strength at smoker location. Old router was weak and needed a repeater. Current one (came...

    Hello from RI. Auber PID controllers are plug n play with the Bradley,this will help you in keeping your set temps within +/- 1℉ of your set temp.

    MES Rewire Simple Guide - No Back Removal Needed!!!

    I have an AW-1520H so it is 15A. I'll give those settings a shot and adjust where I'm putting my Auber probe and see how that effects things after my other tests just to make sure the smoker itself is functioning properly. I did make a new exhaust dead center in the top and my top probe always...

    MES130P Bluetooth UK rewire

    Hi All, Hoping to get a bit of help. I have the Auber AW-1520H V2 and I want to do the MES rewire to replace the controller for better temp control/smoking. I have been following the guide and failed at the first hurdle which is identifying the correct wires to bypass. Mainly because my...

    MES Rewire Simple Guide - No Back Removal Needed!!!

    What are your variables set to? Does your light on the auber flash or stay on constantly? The out of the box setting I believe P=7, I=600 and D=150 was no good for my Mes 40 as well as autotune no good. The auber would flash 20 degrees below set temp and will never get to set temp with 3 ribs...

    MES Randomly Shuts Off

    Have you considered switching to an external PID controller? I bought an Auber years ago that keeps on working. There a lot more options now. The consideration is amperage. My MES-40 can pull up to 10 Amps. Auber handles this. Other controllers may not.

    MES30 and auber, inaccurate temps?

    Have a new MES30 with an auber PID controller installed, rewire done properly, PID set from the auber thread here, everything works...but I'm getting different temps between the auber sensor and my Thermoworks x4. The x4 seems to be lagging behind the auber by about 20f but has settled around...

    I need a new rig!

    Plus 1 on a pid addition! Unless you lived close to me... I'd love to get a 40 at a decent price, currently have a 30 with auber pid and love it. Ryan
