I haven't any idea. Please explain.

I popped on here with a WiFi problem and noticed this thread. Maybe throwing cold water but ... There are frequent discussions of temperature control on the BBQ Brethren Forum (http://www.bbq-brethren.com/forum/) Typically people who feel that the temp swings on their cookers are too wide...

I built my HM a year ago/May and after sorting some software issues (https://tvwbb.com/showthread.php?74219-RP-3b-HeaterMeter-boot-woes) it has been a joy. I last used it a few months ago and it was fine. For T-day yesterday, however, it would not connect to my WiFi from my deck, where it used...

I prefer to avoid having power cords to trip on, so last June I bought a good sized battery to power my HeaterMeter (https://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B00MF70BPU/tvwb-20) I have used it several times with success. One advantage is that it uses the same power supply as the HeaterMeter, so...

Yes. Very nice. My DPH dropped from something like 11 to just above 5 in the stall, then recovered to above 10 when the stall ended. Using instantaneous DPH is conservative, too. After the stall, the actual time to the done point will be slightly underestimated. This might help keep the...

Yeah. Makes sense. Actually my brisket has hit the stall and the time-to-done has skyrocketed. So apparently he is using the current rate of temp change to make the prediction. I have a commercial ham in there too just to get some more smoke and the time-to-done with that one looks to be...

I'm doing my first cook with the Heatermeter and of course am very happy with it. But a question: The display says that my brisket will reach 205deg in 1hr 25 minutes. Neat! But how is this being calculated? Heat transfer is proportional to the temperature difference, so as the brisket temp...

Yes. I just reduced the height there because it didn't seem like the LCD was seating properly. It's probably impertinent to make suggestions on such a carefully thought-out design but what this seems to me to be is what I call a "tight" design, where lots of things have to work almost exactly...

Those jacks are quite nicely centered. After all my fiddling, mine are still not centered but the case does screw closed with about the same amount of gap between top and bottom as you have in your photo. One last thing I did, which did help to a small degree, is to flatten the bottom of the...

Thanks for the post, Bryan. I think it adds to the collective wisdom here. I have also corrected the thread title to give you credit for the case. IMO your comments just underline the need for great care in combining these two boards. I did read and heed your instructions regarding the white...

Difficulties with Bryan's 4.3 Case/How to Fix This post is intended to be informative for someone building an HM and planning to use the Kole 4.3 case with the four button holes. It is not intended to be critical. FWIW I worked my way through HS and college as an electronic tech before I got...

Just to be clear, I did not intend any judgment of Bryan. As far as I can tell he is a great guy doing quality work. Certainly the two-board kit was a bargain considering the quality and the price. I am optimistic that the software will be of similar quality. My avoidance of betas is just a...

Really? And the manual that explains this is where? Or did you just have an irresistible urge to post a cheap shot?

Actually, my experience is that the difference is almost never visible though the windshield. It only shows up in the rear-view mirror. Only certifiably paranoid technology project managers survive, and then only some of them.

Thank you all. Using the snapshot build solved the problem completely. To my great joy, everything appears to be working. My case from Bryan is due to arrive on Monday, so then I can set the LED heights and solder those last six pads. Truthfully, I don't know if I would have ever tried that...

No on the snapshot. I generally stay away from betas. The guys out front are the ones with arrows in their chests. I like the fact that the production version is months old. I was/am working with the 3B+ and have been using that version but I did try the other one just for grins. No joy...

I have just finished my HeaterMeter from Bryan's nicely prepared and priced kit. I am an experienced electronics tech, MSEE, sometimes programmer and had no serious problems with it. No parts left over. No parts short. :) When I first tried to boot using the heatermeter software, I got the...
