So i've got this dilemma and i hope anyone of you can solve it for me, or at least give me some guidance. I am new to the PID game, and i want to buy a Heatermeter. The reason for me wanting to buy a PID controller is fairly straightforward; I would like to do some L&S cooks (overnight), and to get and keep my egg at grilling temp (+/- 220 degrees celcius).
I can wait for
Peter F's version but this project is still underway, summer is already starting and he will most probably run into some issues (and no case is designed for his baby). My soldering skills are worse then my BBQ skills and i need some advice on the parts i need, since not everything is in stock so it seems at Mouser (the button). Given the fact that i am from the Netherlands, but nobody here sells HM 4.2.4 i am pretty mouch bound to this board.
Besides the TC for pit probe (since i heard they last longer) and the black case i am kinda lost what to buy:
- Should i go for the Auberins version or is there someone who can solder (and test) one for me on this board (or should i go for the plunge and DIY one myself?)
- Does Tom ship
the 3D printed cases to the Netherlands or can i print one myself and is that cheaper (or faster?)
- What are the benefits of the servo damper vs "just" a 5$ fan? How difficult are these to make, can someone help me on this one?
- Is
this the food probe i need?
P.s. i have 2 pi's and i have programming skills, so it might not be so bad to solder one myself..
