I don't know if you have made your decision yet but here is my 2 cents. I had one of the early versions of the Stoker, and upgraded to the Stoker II for the built in WiFI. It works well, but I was hoping the Stoker II would have more horsepower under the hood or better firmware but i can't tell...

Cool !! Now i have to go find something to cook to try it out.

Good Deal!, Glad i could give you the needed hint.

@dave Maybe i am misunderstanding what you are trying to do but i have run dozens of cooks with 4 food probes and 2 air temp probes using stokerlog version 6.7. No special characters or anything. All of my probes are the older style, so maybe that is a factor. Here are a couple of lines from my...

Looks interesting, let me know when you need beta testers.

Parallel daisy chain is how i did mine also. That is why i was confused by the talk of serial wiring

Parallel </div></BLOCKQUOTE> My enclosure has surface mount jacks that I initially wired in parallel. I was getting - according to John @ Rocks - a ground fault error and we instructed to re-wire them in series. I did this and system works fine now. Here's a crappy picture of my enclosure...

I would recommended you make a separate patch cord for just the fan. I had nothing but problems trying to run a similar setup until i broke the blower cord out separate from the probes, I use the 10 cfm blower on both an 18 and 22 without any issues. I like the 10 because i know i will never be...

I've been striking out also. May have to go to Ray's Butcher Shop, they have had them before, but they won't be cheap. The Meat cutter at Kewaskum Frozen Foods says he can get me some with a 4 day lead time, but we haven't talked price yet

Would having US Cellular in the phone dropdown make any difference? Format is xxxxxxxxxx@email.uscc.net

Hi Amir Did an overnight smoke, Brisket over Butts, on my new 22" Most everything worked well with Stokerlog except for 1 minor issue with email notifications I had it set for 10 minute emails this morning and the would not go through. The test button works fine, and Temp and Food alarms go...

Have you decided on a firmware version that you feel works best?
