    LinkMeter v2 Homebrew BBQ Controller - Part 2

    Last minute fajitas!

    Everything looks great. I love fajitas. I just bought a cast iron griddle for my charcoal grill and made some fajitas on it last week. forgot to take pictures :-( One suggestion though. I recently bought a Tortilla press and started making my own shells. Out of this world compared to the store...

    Does the ATmega328p chip attach to the uno directly? Going to pick up the Uno tomorrow to give it a shot.

    I'll probably give that a try. I don't want to give up on this project.

    Jason I had bought three of the boards. I can sell one of them. Paid 28 dollars for the three of them shipped so just figure 10.00 shipped. Email me at nydennis@yahoo.com if interested (this is not a primary email address for me so I don't care that it is public)

    DigiQ DX2 and Rain

    if you have a separate charcoal grill you can put it near the Smoker and put the stoker on the grate of the unlit charcoal grill. I do that with my Maverick now. Might lose some distance on the wireless but at least it is dry.

    LinkMeter v2 Homebrew BBQ Controller - Part 2

    I probably have to assume it is the tinyusb that is not working correctly? Back on my Mac OS I did a ls -l /dev/cu.* and usbserial didn't even show up or anything as a device connected. I can get the green light to light up and the red blinks when it errors but nothing else happens

    Still getting the RC=-1 error. Not sure what to do next at this point. I checked all my solder points and everything looks good.

    LinkMeter v2 Homebrew BBQ Controller - Part 2

    I noticed I am missing the /dev/tty.usbmodem621 or any USB type choices in my serial port choices. On the windows machine the Serial port options are greyed out? Yeah my USBtinyISP also uses the wires. I use the Arduino IDE to burn the bootloader rather than avrdude because I can never figure...

    LinkMeter v2 Homebrew BBQ Controller - Part 2

    I do have the jumper on both pins. This isn't a spokePOV kit is it? I used wires on the Tinyusb board instead of the 1.5k <<If you are using the UsbtinyISP with a SpokePOV kit, install R4 and R7 (1.5K) as well. If not you may want to switch these resistors for jumpers (see the second photo for...

    LinkMeter v2 Homebrew BBQ Controller - Part 2

    Another noob question ok I got my board all soldered. I built the Tinyusb device from adafruit. Do I have to connect the soldered board to the linksys before I flash the bootloader onto ATmega328P? I wasn't sure if the programmer powered the board enough to program the chip? I tried...

    LinkMeter v2 Homebrew BBQ Controller - Part 2

    Thanks for the fast response. I figured that I would have to do some modification inside. I even thought of making a large box for the router instead of using it's own casing. Thanks for the tip with the tape. Taking my time with the project as I'm in no rush

    LinkMeter v2 Homebrew BBQ Controller - Part 2

    In the process of doing my first link meter and first circuit board ever. A friend gave me a WT54GV22 linksys router. Does anyone have any ideas if this will work? Also on the Circuit board the RFM12b what is the best way to put that on the circuit board? I'm using the Dorkbox one...

    I'll try to get some pictures of my build on it this weekend. Things have been hectic. I lost my Wallet on Tuesday and ended up canceling all my credit cards, Ordered new license, debit cards, etc. So about 2 hours after canceling all the stuff completely I get a call that It fell out of my...

    Weber Homemade Pizza Oven

    BTW I did 12 inches tall. You want it to form a tight fit on the lid if you can. With a 22.5 I'd estimate 71 inches of metal and maybe go 2-3 inches over that

    I put a bunch of wing nuts inside. Tomorrow I'll take some pictures of what I did and show the dimensions better.

    Weber Homemade Pizza Oven

    Got it at a locally at a roofing skylight installer business but you can get it pretty much cut to size anywhere for a reasonable price. It was a fun project. I'd like to try making some bread on it next.
