I'm in the market for a new wifi meat probe set-up. I've narrowed it down to Fireboard 2, Thermoworks Signals, and one I haven't seen discussed before. The GrillEye Max from the BBQ Guys. They are all similar in price. Does anyone have any thoughts that might help me decide? I'm leaning towards the Signals but the GrillEye had me curious at a minimum.

I've used Inkbird and have not had the best luck with them. Gone through two of them in the past year. One may have been my fault as I may have gotten the probe connections wet but the 2nd died about 2 hours into the first cook.

Have tried a few other inexpensive wifi and not had good results with them either.

Any thoughts would be appreciated.
 
Anything you get from Thermoworks is pretty much bullet proof. However the only WiFi therm I have is a FireBoard. It’s a great therm. I don’t have an opinion on the GrillEye because I am not familiar with it. I’m sure someone will be along soon who can give you a better answer.

I went ahead and ordered the GrillEye Max. Thought I'd give it a try. If I don't like it I can send it back. I'll let you know how it works. Plan to do a brisket flat this weekend.
