Thanks. I will see if I can exchange the units.

That is an 18.5 WSM. Now the can I used was from a large can of yams. I threw away the labels, so I dont have the size. I am *thinking* about putting some sort of gasket on the lip of the can so it is air tight. Not sure if this is over kill or not.

I want! I wish someone would make this for purchase.

I live in Central Texas and I get TONS of high winds. It can also get quite cold. I had bought some SolarBoard (radiant barrier it is also called here in Texas) and was going to hinge it together to make a wind block and to help reflect the heat back towards the smoker. I then saw someone build...

Ahhh yes. Melting. Duh. I should have though about that. Maybe just use thermal tape? I think I am going to paint the can black so it matches better and I do not look soo redneck :)

While I was out buying parts for the WSM cart I am building, I was looking around for some sort of metal bowl/cup to attached to the wsm. Using this image as a reference idea, http://ep.yimg.com/ca/I/yhst-128588856314212_2235_515369, I looked for camping coffee mugs, cat/dog bowls, metal...

http://www.okwenclosures.com/products/okw/datec-mobil.htm. I actually got it free as a sample. There are a lot of companies out there that have similar products.

Yes I know. Well, I need the USB for a wireless adapter. I guess that could rest safely in the case. I doubt I will use the Ethernet or hdmi. I guess when I need to I can just open the battery lid and plug into the Rpi there.

I got my enclosure today. I think it will work quite well, even if it is a little bigger than the 3D case developed here. I will be able to layout the ports a little better I think. It has a cut out for a 2x16 LCD already with an acrylic window to cover and protect it. It also comes with a stand...

I was looking at the wiki and went through this forum, but does the HeaterMeter return data somehow? An API call or URL? I see the LinkMeter will "Get last HeaterMeter status update in JSON format". I want to build an Android App that can connect to the HeaterMeter, read probes, and where I can...

Im not absolutely sure, but the next thing you have to do is login to your router and forward a port to the outside world. Hopefully someone can come in here and give your more directions. I dont have this setup just yet so I am not much help- sorry.

Ordered all my parts including a case I am going to try for the project... One thing I forgot to ask, is there a software alarm that can be triggered on a phone via the browser if temps reach a certain point? Or is the only alarm at this point the physical on on the board?

Thanks! I ordered the other header just in case I can't direct solder the breadboard jumper wires. Thanks!

Oh I never though of Frys- just Radio shack. Awesome! I found this http://www.frys.com/product/452749?site=sr:SEARCH:MAIN_RSLT_PG which according to http://www.linrose.com/leds.html is a supr bright green 3mm. Do I need to worry about the voltage or no?

First, thanks so much for your patience and help. I am learning a lot and I am very excited for this project. I know n00bs like me can be overwhelming. So thank you! Thanks for the links to the panel mounted options. Is there an option for a panel mounted DC jack? The guy who will be doing my...

Another quick question... If I dont want to have the Rpi and HeatMeter stacked ontop of each, but say side by side. Can I use these wires to connect the two instead? http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=370720213032. Similar to this thread...

Do you have a picture of it connected via a floppy cable? Do you have to cut the connector off, strip each wire, and solder individually? For panel mounting, I am looking at buying: Probe Jacks: AUDIO JACK 2.5MM MONO x 4 -...

What did you enclose the 4.0 in?

Thanks for the pic! I think I would like to keep it as simple as possible. I will probably stick with the Digikey one. I talked to two people at church who said they would help me so yay! I am going to do this :)

Awesome! I actually live in Pflugerville but since most non Austin area have no idea where that is, I just put Austin. Do you have a built HeatMeter? I would love to see one in person. Maybe I can buy you some Rudy's and you can give me a look?
