    Help! Feedback requested. DIY system.

    I was wondering if you have any updates to this? I have run a heatermeter for years with great success, but have been implementing several ESP32 based devices for other things around the house (pool controller, weather monitor, etc). The esp32 platform is smaller, lightweight, low power, and...

    Off Topic - Build Mod for HM

    What are you all using as insulation for these? It appears maybe a rock wool product? I have considering adding insulation to my vertical smoker for better efficiency. Thanks.

    Onion Omega for Heater Meter?

    Bryan, I have seen mention that you might go with C.H.I.P. as a replacement for the raspberry pi with future development of the HM. I know there is a old thread on here mentioning the Onion Omega that you had responded too. Back then it was a kickstarter and still vapor ware. Today it is real...

    About 2/3 of the way through a 14 lb brisket on my UDS. Currently (9 am CST) I am getting some inconsistent burn in my fuel basket, nothing to worry too much about though. blackbarrelbbq.com

    Running HM off of a battery (a review)

    Bryan, Thanks for the data, that makes me feel pretty good about having enough power to not run out right at the end of a cook. It sounds like an 8 to 10 Ah 12 volt battery is good to go for a nice and slow brisket cook at 18 to 20 hrs. Do you think how often the wifi is accessed will increase...

    Running HM off of a battery (a review)

    The advantage I saw was fitting it all in a fairly small case and the weather resistance. The idea of possibly having a 12 volt car lead acid battery in the rain chilling next to my smoker wasn't that appealing. I could buy a cheap plastic tub at walmart or something, but that just didn't seem...

    Running HM off of a battery (a review)

    Portable weather resistant build I was wondering if you have any more feedback on your experience with this? Do you run a damper servo? Where did you tap/connect your multi-meter to measure current draw? I was just looking into doing something very similar, there is a friendly low key...

    General 3D Printing Thread

    Andy, I did see that, and some of the threads on that forum are where I have figured out how to do a lot of my tweaking to the printer. I haven't printed enough that things would be worn out, at least I don't think so. I haven't even gone half through one of my cartridges. Overall I am happy...

    General 3D Printing Thread

    I have one, you are correct the cartridges aren't as big a deal as everyone makes them out to be. For the most part they are cost effective with a cartridge being only $28 shipped from amazon prime. I too am running a hacked management software that doesn't even use the counters in them. There...

    Looking Forward: HeaterMeter LIVE

    I think this is a great idea. As I stated in another thread I am often curious who is watching one of my cooks when I post up a link. I think being able to see who else is cooking across the country/world would be pretty neat as well. I started my smoking habit recently and with 4 other guys I...

    List of Users Viewing Heatermeter Page?

    I often share a link to view my smokes with my buddies and my brother, there is something quite communal and fun about all of us watching the graph live. I just posted one of my live smokes for the first time on here as well. Is there a way to see or list the number of users or unique ip's...

    Calculating Humidity / insert new graph on HM homepage

    I am actually quite interested in measuring the humidity in the smoker as well. I built a UDS that has a lower rack on which I have been placing a deflector pan filled with beer or water for each smoke. It greatly changes the "feel" of the smoke coming out of my smoker to be quite damp. I am...
