    Looking for TP-08 probe custom settings

    I sent an email to the company. I'll hit you up when they have the info! Thanks I gave a shot with the iGrill preset and it was the closest I could get to the thermapen I have. I'll try a bowl of ice water for precision!

    Looking for TP-08 probe custom settings

    I'm using the probes from my TP-08 thermometer and they are a bit off. Is someone using them with custom settings? I have no idea how to figure out the settings myself. Might have to contact the company I guess

    PitDroid: An Android app for your HeaterMeter

    I had my first run with my HM and pit droid today. It worked for 5 minutes and now nothing shows up. Is there anything I should look for to fix this?

    Elbow in conduit going to the smoker

    Hi, I was looking at the setup of the people in here and I was wondering if I should add a curve to the attachment of my HM? Would it prevent embers (log burner here) to reach the fan? Ps. Looking for a good way to attach my damper to a firebox! Will give the dog bowl a try, but if someone...

    Servo troubleshoot

    The servo I was using was a MG90d (ordered from digikey, it said it was a mg90s, but they shipped the d) I bought a MG90S at the shop near my place and it was moving randomly. I installed the capacitor and now it's working great! Only problem is I think it's a counterfeit because it doesn't...

    Servo troubleshoot

    470uf 35V did not make any difference! I'll go to the regular shop when it opens tomorrow and get 47uf and 100uf 10V and 25V. If it doesn't work I'll try Ralph booster!

    Thanks for all the help Bryan and Ralph! Very happy that everything is sorting out. The servo is shaky a bit, moving 1 degree and making a ticking sound like it wants to move (the screw is not too tight)... Is this what could fix it?

    Servo troubleshoot

    Success Update! Everything is working right now! I jumped wired from SVO to Q5. The weird thing is that the left pin on Q5 is 0.70V @100% middle is at 3.28V and right pin at 0.50V. The 1k resistor goes from 5V to 0.70V to Q5... is that normal? Also, the servo is making clicking noises when...

    I'll try to clean things up today. Thanks for the advices! I guess I could use a jump wire from SVO to Q5 bs170 right hole?

    Servo troubleshoot

    Hope this will work! What should I use to clean the board? The way you say it sounds really easy, but I actually have no idea what I'm doing. I don't want to mess things up even more! Is there a little tutorial or guide I could refer to? Thanks!
