    HeaterMeter 4.3 - Blower issues

    First off, I want to thank Bryan for all this. I've built 3 HeaterMeters over the last several years but last week ended up buying a pre-soldered version (which is working awesome!!!). So, for my last 4.3 build, I noticed last week that the fan was not working as it should all the time...

    PID Help - Overshooting beginning temp

    Did an overnight smoke of a butt...working out awesome. Once the temp settled in, everything has been working out great. With that said, when I first fire up, I overshoot the temperature by 50-60 degrees. I'm running a Vision Classic B with a new gasket and bottom vent sealed off. Below is my...

    Raspberry PI 3 - Overheating

    After some further thought on this, I do remember at one point when putting the new one in the case (while it was running), I did accidentally push down on the PI too much to where the USB housing touched the lcd and caused the lcd backlight to turn off (and then back on when I lifted it back...

    Raspberry PI 3 - Overheating

    A little backdrop. I built a 4.3 about a month ago and paired with a PI 3. Worked great on my first try (I have a failed 4.2 build in my past). Used it for a 3 or 4 cooks and worked fine with the exception that every now and again it would drop wifi. This weekend an build another 4.3 but with a...

    PitDroid: An Android app for your HeaterMeter

    Tried it with the beta and still no joy. Running Samsung S7 Edge. Tried uninstalling then reinstall, no dice. Cleared cache and data, nope. I didn't have this problem in my 4.2 version, so I think it must have something to do with the snapshot firmware. Just a guess.

    Built 3 new 4.3 units this weekend

    But with the glue stick, how to you make sure there are no glue/brush marks on the finish (or remove them)?

    PitDroid: An Android app for your HeaterMeter

    I am running the release version of PitDroid (from the google play store). I am also running the snapshot firmware on the HM. Tried again last night and same issue.

    Built 3 new 4.3 units this weekend

    I'd be curious if Tony has any tips as to technique as well. I have the same problem. Sticks well but you can see the glue marks on the finished product.

    First Build = Fail (but this is how we learn, right?)

    So a quick update. For the D3 that was backwards, I ordered a new one two years ago but ended up going to radio shack and buying a replacement part. Still didn't work and when the new one came in the mail I just shoved it in a corner. This weekend, I took out he radio shack piece and put in the...
