    HeaterMeter Controller, with Wifi, and Electric Smoker (MES40) Mod in Detail

    I definitely used your PID settings and they held the temp really well. The iphone interface is pretty nice the heatermeter controller is the bomb and  works really well. I had a probe in each of the briskets and everything just worked. Maybe next time I'll use a port forwarding service so I can...

    Cooked a couple of small briskets on Sunday. Ran the whole thing through heatermeter on my phone and ipad. They came out really well.

    HeaterMeter Controller, with Wifi, and Electric Smoker (MES40) Mod in Detail

    So I'll try toggle some information about how I added heater meter control to my MES 40. I ordered some five pin connectors from amazon. happily these turned out to exactly match the connectors used to connect the bluetooth controller to the MES. I also ordered an adjustable voltage divider...

    HeaterMeter Controller, with Wifi, and Electric Smoker (MES40) Mod in Detail

    My setup seems to work. It plugs between the on board control panel and the smoker inputs. I tested it this morning and I could control the temperature. I will put up photos and some links to the connectors and the other parts I used. In all I think I spent around $20 on the connectors and the...

    HeaterMeter Controller, with Wifi, and Electric Smoker (MES40) Mod in Detail

    I think I have identified the ground and signal wire for the relay. It seems it's a 3.3V signal. I have ordered some parts from Amazon, which I hope will allow me to do a completely removable install (I will have to cut some holes in the plastic front plate. But that part can be purchased from...

    HeaterMeter Controller, with Wifi, and Electric Smoker (MES40) Mod in Detail

    I just saw a video showing replacement of the control panel. My guess is that on e could feed the heatermeter fan control into the relay control line right there, might have to adjust the voltage output of the heatermeter down from 12, but that remains to be seen. Add a single pole switch to...

    HeaterMeter Controller, with Wifi, and Electric Smoker (MES40) Mod in Detail

    I just got my heatermeter up and running. I will probably use it in monitor mode for a bit. However I want to figure out how to control the MES through the existing SSR. There has to be one in the box somewhere. I can probably add a switch that will select the builtin controls v the heatermeter...

    MES Mod Madness Teaser Pics!!!

    I just got a heater meter kit for fathers' day. I am wondering if anyone has tried to control the MES 40 bluetooth through the control panel connections? I would think there has to be a wire to an exiting relay. I'd be really interested to see how you've configured heater meter to get good temp...

    New MES Bluetooth Digital smoker

    I did some ribs this weekend and a couple of small pork roasts. The third party probe was near the built in probe and they were off by less than 5 degrees most of the time. The food came out great. I was quite frustrated by the cold smoke attachment, when it  works it's great, but it clogged up...

    New MES Bluetooth Digital smoker

    I just bought an mes 40 at sams club I seasoned it . It heated up fine I tried cooking a tritip at 225. The issue was that my third party thermometer smoke by thermopro read at least 20 degrees lower than the set temp even as the smoker had reached it set temp. Is there a preferred place to put...
