You have a cold solder joint. Take an old toothbrush and scrub the solder connections wit rubbing alcohol until everything shines. Look through a magnifying glass at all the connections; one or more may be dull. Remove the solder (some wicking material is easiest) and re-solder. The bad...

Take rubbing alcohol and an old toothbrush to all the solder joints. Any solder joint not shiny is a cold solder joint. This will also clean up the rosin from the solder core. Take your time. Once the board is clean clean clean, you will find it easier to see any solder bridges.

But wouldn't watching the Bucs cause you to stay much, much longer, regardless? ;)

RJ45. That would allow you to use the green pair for the motor, keeping the noise level off the temp probes (green has a tighter twist, great for noise reduction). If you happen to plug in stuff backwards, I don't think any damage will be done. We use POE systems everywhere, and customers...

2 funny issues, when I set an alarm, the home pages comes back blank, and pit droid doesn't work anymore. A bug. or is it me?

3 pi's and 3 of the older ones, trying to find a home for them

I had to head for the city for the weekend. I'll print them off as soon as I get home

I printed the bottom, and it fits very nicely; quite snug.

Have you the stl files for the new case. I have built a couple of cases, and don't think they will stand up to too much. I haven't quite figured out the hows and whats on changing existing cad files to change the thickness, etc.

I bought turkey roaster a cheap at costco. Kinda nice, as it has a removable rack. Make doing creme brule a snap.

I would grab an old toothbrush and a bottle of rubbing alcohol. Power down the system, pour the alcohol on the board, and scrub with the toothbrush. Do it a couple of times, then allow the board to dry. Take a magnifying glass and look at the solder joints. This will help you find any solder...

I have used that blower on both my 22 in weber, and on a stoker clone,, when the outside temps were just above 0F. Temps were fine at 225F.

Where does one find the nuts for those connections? Mine did not have any, and my parts bin didn't have the right size.

From the outside. I have an instance where we are doing a demonstration cook in Edmonton, but I also have to coach a playoff football game 2 towns over. I want to keep an eye on things to help the cook team with temps and times. I'll be using my cell router, but as it;s a netgear, it doesn't...

How does one change the port number the pi listens to? I have 2 systems for different smokers, and would like to get to them through a router. I used grep to find the phrase 80, as well as port. My netgear does not allow forwarding port 82 to port a 80 and a different IP (linksys and d-link do).

If one required a larger fan to run, say 2A, would I only have to change out the 1n4001's for 1n4007? I ran the system last weekend on the weber 22, and found the small fan only took 10 minutes to get the coals up to 225F. Now I wonder about my stoker. My feeling is it will be okay with the...

And me, especially if it can bounce, scroll, change colours :)

All finished!! I'll test the system tomorrow on some ribs, which will give me an idea on it's performance, and it's ability to withstand some temperature extremes (it's 16F right now). I have it aet upn my 3G wireless system so I can see the smoker from wherever I happen to be. I cannot find...

So, if one was to try to use a dlink dir-601 that has openwrt installed already, what would the steps be?
