Which thermometer? Help!

Hi all. I have been on the verge of hitting the buy button on Amazon for the TP20. I just read here that it doesn't have a low temp alarm. This seems problematic for me. I had a maverick before that suddenly disappeared, which gave me an alarm for a high and low temp. I struggle a little but with maintaining a constant temp, so the high and low alarms were really useful. What thermometer do you all recommend that offer that option? I can get another Maverick, but I'm wondering if there's a better option out there. Though it seemed to work well, that one just seemed cheap. I also need 2 prongs. Would love other ideas. Thank you!

For ThermoPro, I believe both the TP08 and TP12 have low alarms.

I read on here that it did not have a low temp alarm.

You read that the TP08 and TP12 do not have low alarm?  Are you sure you're not thinking of the TP20?

Yah, you might be correct. I think it was the tp20. I think I read your last post wrong. What's the difference between the 08 and 12?

Functionally, they appear to be the same. I think the only difference is the design of the case - the TP08 "appears" to be more robust.

If you go to itronicsmall.com and use the coupon code SMOKINGMEATFORUM  (no 'S' at the end) you can get 20% off your order for a TP20 or so.  Also it is likely no tax and it's free shipping :)

I prefer the TP20 over the Maverick T733 I had.
