Saw this today and thought that it might work. It is a lot smaller than the Raspberry Pi

I have a Traeger, I have seen those before and it would not be hard to adapt the controller I don't think. I wasn't sure how hard it would be to make the servo pin to an on/off control selectable from ON/OFF and servo.
The grills do have temp controllers but the steps are quite large in settings. It is a good idea about a servo damper for the fan. I am planning on using a ssr for the augur and would with the fan if it could be an on off control
I don't know if it is possible but I would like it to be an on off control. I know the heatermeter isn't design for what I am trying to do but I am wanting to experiment with it controller a pellet grill because of all the monitoring capabilities
Brian, i downloaded the code and looking at how to modify it, I found where it is set to 50hz. I am not a programmer, but wondering if the refresh rate being set in the UI is something that you have considered. I am not sure how difficult that is or if there would be a benefit for anyone but...
Pellet Grills to have temp controllers, but most are not wifi, and don't give you the logging that the heatermeter does.
How difficult would it be to make a selection box in the UI for servo or on/off, I am going to look into it tonight, but I like the idea of using this pin because it is...
I am getting ready to get a pellet grill and was thinking that if the there was a way to make the servo pin on/off control, the heater meter would work well for a pellet grill.
I am not good at software, but the heatermeter could be used to drive SSRs for the fan and auger.
Basically the...
I had this idea also, I came across this post and have tried to contact him to get the design files. My hope was to somehow integrate what he did to my HM
I love the idea also. I also think that if it had a store that you could buy cases and the roto-dampers and some of the other 3d printed items in would be great. It would help newcomers to find where to get all the items.
