DOH! Sorry about that but I have now updated the partslist.

Haven't noticed an issue. Also, there is a gap between the inside and the outside copper pipes so I think that should help out. Two cooks so far and no melting of the ABS printed rotary damper. --Ron

New Heatermeter user here and I am attaching my HM to an 18” WSM. I have browsed all the posts on attaching to a WSM and found them all lacking to me in some way. There is the standard dog/cat dish connection but my concern is that the vent is above the coals and only on one side so you don’t...

Took my brand new HM out for a spin today and have been trying to monitor it with the Pit Meter app for iPhone. Unfortunately, I continually get the message "Error Unprocessed streaming event peaks." Looking at the http stream information, I see many hmstatus events and the occasional peaks...

I was just browsing the wiki and found the todo list. Heatermeter Live is essentially what I had been suggesting and is already at least bubbling around the brain of Bryan... --Ron

Agree that there should be a way to disable automatic publishing and this should be the default.

Thought about this too but the user needs to actively do something at the end of a cook rather than just have it happen automatically. This may be an itch that only I need scratching but I want it to happen automatically. The user should not have to do anything after it has been configured and...

I realize I am giving that up but am looking at this as a two step process. First, get the server done where it pulls the data. Then I can look to writing a client that lives on the PI and pushes the data. For someone who can/will punch a hole in the firewall, the first method can be used...

First time I pulled up your post it only had the first line. Curious. Anyway, I think I have the initial idea of a solution. This describes ways of querying the HM data including one that streams the data. So, I thought about writing a program that has a list of 'users' and their HM urls...

Certainly in the direction I was going. I was thinking about something where one would archive specific cooks. So I could have https://myserver.something.other/vaniwaar/7962 which was a cook of a brisket on 8/17/2015 https://myserver.something.other/vaniwaar/8452 which was a cook of turkey on...

Ok, I know I am new here and, in fact, my first heatermeter won't be here until next week but I have a feature request for heatermeter already. About two weeks ago, my buddy posted a link on facebook to his smoker temperature control, a flameboss. I thought this was the coolest thing in the...

You are right Steve, I had never logged into my router to really examine it much. Anyway, I would still be exceedingly concerned about fs corruption because, as you say, ext3/4 on an SD card is flaky. I have had nowhere near the time to think about this like Bryan and likely yourself but here...

I don't think the package size is as much of an issue as the ability to withstand a sudden unplug. Most linux distributions expect a clean shutdown and Openwrt is one that can easily handle being unplugged. It is certainly not acceptable to have to ask a user to 'shutdown' the linkmeter before...

How would one get involved in any such work? I find myself in need of a project and I (currently) have some time to spare... --Ron
