For a newbie that lives in an apt and has to store the Electric Temperature Controller indoors (as per Weber advice), looking for am idea for a bag or case to store the Controiller. It has thick wire and 2 large parts that make collapsing it difficult and space in closets is limited (It knocks things off shelves when moved) so I want to keep it contained in a bag or some container. Ideas, please? Thanks!!

Hi Joel. There is an “Automatic Temperature Control Systems” section to the forum, so you might want to post this there to get more responses.

Do you also store the heat element indoors? If so, could something like this work? I use a variety of these sizes to store grill grates:

If you don't store the element indoors and prefer a hard shell case you might consider searching "Pelican Case" on Amazon.

Thanks, as we have an apt with limted storage space, I need a bag that can be put onto a shelf of a closet so that the heavy wire and two big ends does not knock everything else from the shelf near it when taken out. Found a small packing cube that seems to be the perfect size.Wires stuffed in, zipped up, and into the closet. Thanks for the input. btw, written direction and intial emails form Weber do say the unit should ne be left in the grill. As a newbie, I follow directions, even though I have the Weber grill cover.

I use some foam I cut up to wrap my probes around to keep the cables from kinking (and hold the pointy end) and found a tupperware container I could cut them all down to fit alongside my signals/billow. Works well. I leave it in the garage (summer) and inside the house (winter) as we hit -30 and below which does NOTHING any good.
Bonus use...I used a heat gun and softened up one edge and curved it down a bit so I can run the cables/probes inside with the lid on. I use the container to hold the signals controller when it is raining outside too for water protection.

Can't start the grill without itJust remember to remove it the next time you start the grill.

Not to speak for Joel but I was under the assumption he was referring to the stock components.

Thanks. Seems like the controller would fit in a canvas grocery bag, hung from a hook or hanger in the closet
