I could not get the yahoo mail to work but I got the gmail to work. email and a Tmobile text message. Effective 30May22 you may need to generate a special 16 character password to use since 2 step verification is not possible. I found the SMTP info on the Alarm Scripts Recipes Wiki, I had...

I have a couple of questions and have been researching alot and have been getting confused. A definitive answer would help alot. I have three 4.2 heatermeters. Mine, my son's, and one I bought from Auber. I have a Raspberry Pi model b. I just uploaded the latest firmware.. I have 2 SD...

I just went through the same issue. On ebay I bought the kit of orifaces and regulator. The flame was always too high. Weber will not sell you the propane manifold because you have a NG grill registered. There are at least two types of valves. The best thing I did was buy a genuine Weber...

Thanks. Before I changed the manifold, I just changed they orafices. The flame was too big. I could not get a low setting. They have continuously variable valve and fixed setting valves. I had the fixed valves. They easiest fix was to buy a new manifold with the valves. With all the...

There seems to be diffence in some. They have different part numbers. Also there seems to be a difference in Geneis II and the Genesis II LX. I got the ignition working great. The two input "control" connections can be conected to test. The ignition will fire evey 2 seconds. The switch on...

Hello, I am trying to find out the difference in the 19 1/2 inch burner tubes. I converted a natural gas to propane. I had to replace the gas manifold because the valves were diffenent. Apparently this is not always need but it was on mine. Weber has not been much help, but very helpful for...

I think you would be happier with the thermocouple. It is more durable. The thermistors are protected by the meat. Eventually you will get a flame up and it will burn out the pit probe if it is a thermistor. The thermocouple has a better chance of survival. The down side is you have to...

Ralph, I travel so I was looking for quick and easy. Not wanting to bother anyone. Everyone is very helpful here, just didn't want to impose. Since I was only looking for a few parts, cost was OK. Bryan, Your right. That's a lot of plastic. It sure is strong. I just didn't know for sure...

I just got the parts in the mail. I used blue ABS and other setting are in the order below. I order 2 Microdamper since there was a discount for 2. I also ordered parts for 1 offset rotary damper (Tom Kole). They came out really nice and strong. Description Specifications Details Qty Price...

I can not get logged into 3D Hubs at the moment. As I remember, it was about $25ish for a set. I ordered 2 since it was cheaper. I used blue ABS. Not sure about the other settings but they did change the price. I was impressed with the low price. All mail order, no local pick up. But it...

Brian, I ordered the 3 D printer parts from 3 D Hubs. They should come in a few days. I was not sure if the printer setting. I will let you know how it comes out if you would like. I ordered the other parts from Amazon and Ebay.

Bryan, Your right. Those jumper packs are good for surge but maybe not continuous as we need. I bought a bunch of different connectors for them. The main one that comes with it to jump the car is ill suited as it has safeguards in it that will probably interfere with low power, continuous...

Just a thought for battery power. Car jumper packs are now made out of LiPo batteries. They output 12V. Most folks could use one anyway. Some even come with the proper cord. Joe Widmayer

Bryan, Thanks for the info. The 3 D hubs seems pretty reasonable. I think I can get 3 done for about $45. I was going to buy a printer but I probably should put that off for a little while. So many blower/dampers to choose from! Thanks for all you do, Joe Widmayer

Hello, I am trying to acquire 2 or 3 more MicroDampers. I bought one from SteveCK a while ago and it is great. I emailed him but he has nor responded. I hope he is OK and just busy. I am hoping to get some printed by 3 D Hubs but I know little about 3 D printing. Could someone tell me what...
