I'm good for a bit. Here's my Heatermeter "Kit".

I was selling the Adapt-a-Damper at one point. I gave that design to anyone who wanted to sell it. Cap'n Bry was selling them at his shop. Believe me, I never made a profit on selling dampers. I just wanted to give everyone the opportunity to build in an open source community. Sorry I hurt your...

I found this on Thingiverse. It doesn't seem to have the "RD3 FREE" plastered all over the parts. https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:6895639

These work great, and are cheap. Thermocouples - set of 3

I agree with ralph. I've been making my own K Type Thermocouples for a while now, and have 1 on my smoker for the past 2 years without any issues. Thermistor based probes are much more prone to damage at higher heat, and can't really be repaired if damaged. Stick with the Thermocouple.

There's a couple of posts every now and then, but I believe the support is mostly done unless Capn Bry shows up again.

I don't think I'd start a sentence with "My buddy has been jealous of my unit ..."

Hey, I did not finish the integrated version, but a more than happy to share the design files. I put the Fusion 360 files in the Damper V3 Thingiverse link here ... Damper V3

Probably because you're using the RotoDamper 3 (RD3). LOL!

Just go with a Roto-damper or Adapt-a-Damper setup. It's been proven here, and re-invented a million times. If you want to control the damper directly, there are settings that can do that.

Not sure. Just go with the Pi Zero W. It's so easy. Don't need all that computing power of the Pi 3.

Just a heads up. Unless there is a very large demand in the next few months, I will not be supporting the Adapt-a-Damper any further. It seams that most of the builders have faded away here on the site. It's been a great run, and thank you all for your support. A special thanks goes out to Capn...

Designed to be a tight slip fit.

I built the mini, and use a 15 CFM. Should be big enough for the double pan. My fan never runs at full soeed.

So, I have the parts and files for machining the Aluma-Damper. I will not make parts to sell, but if anyone is interested in the CAD files, I would be more than happy to share. What would be the best posting venue?
