It appears to be something with v69. I rolled back to 62 and now i've got a reading :-)

Well darn it. Got the new POT and had stable +5v on all rails. +5v coming out of arduino and +4.4v coming from my pit probe. Tried powering up with the buttons grounded (ie a0 to GND) but I get the same thing. Hmmm.... I've got wireless commented out. The INSTANT I plug it in I get the -...

Thx. I will re-check tonight after I procure the correct POT. I believe my faulty POT is having an effect on the entire system though - it appears its dragging Vcc slowly down from +5v. I isolated the 4 different circuits and I had a consistent Vcc with buttons, probes, and blower but not...

I was too anxious and found time to give it a go yesterday. I'm working with all maverick probes and even though I have the ambient temp thermister I've grounded the input. I've also grounded the input for food2 probe. I assume I need to change the stein hart numbers so they match correct...

One thing I did to help keep things clean was I went to my local Fry's and got some snap off pin headers and soldered a 16x wide straight to my sparkfun sourced LCD. because I was soldering the entire block to the LCD it was much easier than trying to solder 12 individual wires (IMO) and if the...

Hi guys I've got another silly question (thanks for the thoughts on the last one!) I picked up an LCD from sparkfun - is there a way to attach the wires to this thing without soldering for the purpose of testing it out? I wanted to avoid re-soldering when I actually came up with the placement...

I have a silly question - does anyone know if there is a difference between the smoker probes and the food probes? I accidentally ordered two food probes... it doesn't appear that there is a difference in the temperature output, but I wasn't sure if there was some reason I shouldn't just go...

I'm going to introduce myself here too! I will be attempting a barebones version. If I can get this thing to keep a +/- 5* range from where I set it (provided enough fuel) I'll be a happy camper. I got in on Free Day and I've got an Arduino Uno, LCD, and buttons coming. Also plugged in the...
