Steve_M is correct. Also, Does your ISP block port 80? Mine does. So any service I need to access outside of my home network needs to be ran on something other than 80.

Started looking at my smoker again and it looks like I found a perfect place to mount the SSR. There's a panel that comes off the back to access the heating element. I think I should be able to mount the SSR directly to the inside of that cover and have the heatsink sticking through the outside...

I've been thinking about how I'm going to power these devices and my heating element. I was thinking about somehow mounting the SSR in the smoker (not inside the heated chamber of course) but there just isn't room. That said, I'm going to be building a big enough box to house the SSR and...

Very cool! I'm going to make the order from Ali for the components. Hopefully, in a month or so I'll learn how to use them. Looking forward to seeing your v2 project.

I was just about to order a kit but I really don't want to spend that much and don't mind a little more hands on DIY approach. I'm mainly looking for something to let me be able to control temps and set alarms from PitDroid or web interface. I think I can utilize the mini ATmega328 and Max6675...

That is awesome. Very impressive! That's pretty much exactly what I'm looking. Subscribing to your thread.

Wanting to make an order but I'm not sure exactly what I need. I don't see myself needing the LCD or buttons. Can I just order the Mouser base parts and the Circuit Board set and just not wire up the LCD and button? Do I need the Thermocouple board if I'm using the thermistors from my...

Perfect. Thanks for the reply.

I recently purchased an electric smoker. While the built in electronics work fine its simply to basic and no where geeky enough for me. I currently use a diy Arduino and Rasberrypi controller to maintain temperature in a refrigerator I use as a fermentation chamber to ferment home brewed beer...
