Just back from vacation! Still haven't cooked with the HM yet. Got a new servo and it seems to be working fine. All that is left is to attach the rotodamper to the wsm. Thinking about the dog bowl method or something custom out of 1/2 copper in the three holes of the daisy wheel. Want it done by...
No need to foil if you don't want. I don't foil anymore until the resting stage. 225 for 10-12 hours until approximately 205* and probe tender but its done at probe tender no matter what temp. Take it off and let it rest for 10-15 min then foil and wrap in towel and then leave it in oven or...
Yes, wonky outside the damper. I'll order a new one and see what happens. Everything else seems to be fine. Would it be fine to try a cook without the damper and just the fan? Just until I get a new servo?
I did not as I do not have a multimeter or continuity tester on hand. Could the wiring still be bad if it is functioning but slower. I did double check all the instructions and believe I made the connections properly. Where would be the best place to buy a new servo of this one is bad? Thanks...
Thank you JKalchik. Don't know how to put it in manual mode but I have been changing the pit temp from 225 to 0 on the config page. The servo will move if its helped but otherwise just sits there, hums and gets real hot. Bad servo? Could it be wired wrong? I double checked everything.
Ok thanks John, I'll try that. Not sure why it cant be accessed through the web somehow if its connected to wifi but that's why computers aren't my thing. My rotodamper arrived today! I have it all hooked up and the fan is working but cant tell if the servo is working or not. Is there a way to...
Is there a way to connect to the HM and monitor the cook from a smartphone without being on the same wifi network as the HM? I cannot connect from regular service but if I join the wifi then I can locate the HM.
Ok it seems as if the TP-20 probes work perfectly! Just put the thermocouple and my two probes and one maverick replacement that I bought in some water at a rolling boil. The thermocouple read about 212 the whole time and my two were at 210 and 209 and the Maverick replacement was at 205. (Its...
Deleted the # and working!! Thank you so much for all the help Bryan and everyone else. What a great product! I am now looking forward to mastering the program! I will test it out on a 12 pound brisket overnight tonight!! Should have the rotodamper for next weekend so will have a busy August...
Thanks Steve, I didn't download the image as I was having trouble with it. I opened up the config file and followed the instructions as best I could. Changed the ssid and the password. Not sure what to try next
Got the header pins and soldered them successfully! Now cant find the device. Heatermeter shows up on my phone when searching for wifi but cant find device through the site
Thanks John, I'll have to get a header and solder it I guess. I'll go to microcenter tomorrow and see what they have. I bought the premade unit and case and power supply, fan and micro sd card off the heatermeter website. Getting the rotodamper from Ralph. Picked up the servo and thermocouple...
