Had my first smoke using the Auber WSD-1500H-W Wi-Fi PID, with my MES30.
It wasn't a big deal smoke, only about an hour for the Tri-Tip, but OMG the way the PID manages the smoker is amazing. Straight climb to set temp and held it there for the entire smoke. No overshoots, no undershoots, no odd swings, etc. My MES, even w/new control panel and element, was about as inconsistent as it could have been, was unable to accurately measure it's own IT (seemed to range to up to 10 degrees off), and required constant attention. With the Auber PID it just worked, such a pleasure.
I am really looking forward to my next longer smoke, not having to babysit and check/adjust temps continuously. Thank you to everyone who kept pushing the PID. You were right, and I owe you a beer.
My son starting to put a sear on it after it left the smoker at 131.
Sliced up nicely (now that I know how to slice it). :)
