That is true, but most guys on the pellet forums just wants something to monitor temps wirelessly. As discussed before here on this forum it would be great to figure out how to control a pellet grill using the Heatermeter. There is a manufacture that just rolled out a wireless controller for their pellet grills but you will have to use their free (for now) server. I am planning on going that route and just use the HM to monitor the 4 meat probes.
