Apologies if this has been covered. I did a quick search and didn't come up with anything. I have a Google Home display in my kitchen and every time I'm doing a cook I think it would be great if I could see the Heatermeter status on the display. I have no idea how difficult it would be but is...

I'm building a gravity fed smoker and I'm thinking about trying a fan instead of a blower to create a custom attachment. My impression is that blowers typically create more pressure than a similar sized fan. What are the important specs when choosing a fan or blower? Is this doable? If it...

Can someone tell me what the command to set from the web admin is to show the pid values debug display please? I typically use my phone to interface with the HM so I can't just hit P on the keyboard. It would be ideal if there was just a checkbox to show it.

Is it possible to set a command to change the actual current pid values? I'm experimenting with the pid settings and if I set one of them back to zero the live value stays where it is instead of going to zero

Is there a port forwarding tutorial somewhere? I was able to navigate the wiki and have the Link Meter set up and working on my LAN but I'm a total noob and just don't know where to start with accessing it outside of my LAN.

My first cook with the HM didn't go so well. I figured out the 10cfm Auber blower setup I chose was basically just blowing cool air into my WSM instead of stoking the fire. This is because the blower attached to the vent above the fire and angles upward. After seeing how the BBQ Guru WSM...

I'm not sure what to try on my next cook to improve things. It seemed, no matter what PID settings I tried on the HM, the pit temp would just drop any time the blower came on. After a while I just started trying the blower on manual mode to see if I could manually get the pit temp to rise...

So I've been poking and tweaking the settings in my HM web interface. I was thinking it might be nice to just reset everything to the default settings. Maybe this is a dumb question but how do I do this?

I was able to assemble my HeaterMeter kit yesterday with all the info provided here and the wiki so I want to say thanks to Bryan and everyone else that's share info and experience. My case and blower from Auber should be here later this week so I hope to be able to take it for a maiden voyage...

The majority of the parts for my HM kit arrived today. Thanks, Bryan. After looking things over I decided I'd like to pick up one of the Auber snap on blowers since it seems like a pretty simple and effective way to attach the blower to my 22" WSM. Based on what I've read so far I assume the...

I'm interested in putting together a HeaterMeter but I have a lot of questions so here goes. 1. I assume the kit on the HM store comes with one thermocoupler port and 3 thermistor. Can I get it with 2 thermocoupler and 1 thermistor like Auber sells it? 2. Are the thermistor probes good enough...

My 22in WSM should be delivered tomorrow. It's the smoker I originally wanted, and came back to, after considering a pellet machine and reverse cabinet. Hopefully I can break it in this weekend but to do so I was hoping to get some feedback on any must-have or nice-to-have accessories...
