    Sorry to see this apparently fade away.

    The HeaterMeter I have is doing the best job possible with my Kamado Joe and has been doing it for a long time now. It sure deserves more attention than it gets. In fact. it works better than my FireBoard Drive system (which I don't even bother to use). Anyway, just my thoughts and I wanted...

    New Case Option for HM v4.3.6/RPi ZeroW

    John, I have been 3D printing a LONG time and can assure you one problem is that your printer is WAY, WAY out of correct calibration. Tom

    Pit Reading 400°F + when plugged in. K-Thermocouple

    No worries. Just tired of fiddling with it. By the way, my new Fireboard 2 Drive arrived yesterday. And guess what? I rigged one of my HM blowers to it no problem. I printed and used both the Adapt-a-damper and the Micro damper units with my HeaterMeter while it worked. They both still...

    Pit Reading 400°F + when plugged in. K-Thermocouple

    . Here's the info I saw. No TC or probes plugged in, HM read 4°F. Plugged in TC and it read 400°F to 415°F bouncing around in that range. Appling heat to TC end did nothing. Plugged in meat probes, one at a time, and all read 117°F just sitting on the table. ALL probe sockets read the...

    Pit Reading 400°F + when plugged in. K-Thermocouple

    Well, 108 views, no responses. So I guess this has never happened before. It was fun while it lasted but I am tired of chasing down errors, re-installing firmware, and messing with something that I just want to work. So, I ordered a Fireboard Drive 2 a few minutes ago, and a Pit Viper blower...

    Pit Reading 400°F + when plugged in. K-Thermocouple

    Title says it all. Started a cook this morning and when I plugged in the thermocouple to put it in the Kamado it had readings of 400°F to 415°F oscillating in that approximate range and would never change. Before it was ever heated in the Kamado... just sitting on the table. So... I thought...

    Thermocouple not Matching the temps on ThermoWorks

    I had a problem with a TC being inaccurate too. Just sent it back to Amazon, got another, problem solved. It wasn't the HeaterMeter, it was a defective TC. Tom

    Thermal Couple Vs Thermal Probes (thermistors)

    "Am I just crazy in looking for this much accuracy?..." I am not a clinical phycologist nor do I play one on TV nor did I sleep at a Holiday Inn Express last night, but I would have to say yes... you are crazy. The BBQ doesn't care. Hope that helped. Tom

    The Adapt-a-Damper - Open Source Project

    Searches on Thingiverse have always been broken. Use the Google search tool function to search. For example, I was there yesterday looking for some shop light mount brackets. And the search for "shop light" turned up ZERO hits, which I thought was odd. So I used the Google Site search...

    it was going so well..... any tips on de-soldering?

    OK, maybe not the popular choice but because I am a lazy slug... and HATE to de-solder way more than I should. I would, given the ridiculously low prices of the components involved, chalk the mistake up to fate then merely buy a replacement. Then I would go sit in the shade by my pool, having...

    MG90 servo source for adapt a damper

    They are all the same form factor. The MG versions have metal gears, which I have found to be unnecessary. Tom

    MG90 servo source for adapt a damper

    Here's four of'em for 9 bucks. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07MLR1498/?tag=tvwb-20 As I said, I have been running these servos for a LONG time. There is no need to waste money getting "premium" SG-90 servos, there's no such thing. They are ALL generic. Tower Pro is just one of the vendors and...

    Did you test the probes? Do the boiling water test and see if they match. Tom
