Right now, while folks are working hard on the 4.1 board; it is not ready for prime time. Also, since the 4.1 board is not finalized, there is no 3D printed box for it. More importantly, what type of smoker are you using and what are you cooking. Most folks who use BGEs (Big Green Eggs) or WSMs (Weber Smokey Mountain cookers) can do very well with just 4.0 board, the existing 3D printed box, Maverick ET72/73 thermistor probes, a home built blower adapter (stainless dog food bowl and wall anchor bolt), and a 12VDC computer fan. Its a question of waiting for cutting edge (at least a month or two and probably longer because this is not people's full time job) or getting something that works fine now for your needs. I have a working 4.0 rig on my WSM and just smoked a turkey for Thanksgiving. It kept the temperature to within 1 degree of 300 degrees F for the entire cook. I have also done numerous briskets and rib racks through the summer at 225 degrees F. I am very happy and do not have a need for the damper. That is just my opinion, you may have different needs.
That said, the issue of probe longevity and heat range has come up. The Maverick ET72/73 probes have a rubber gasket at the probe end and have been known to die, They are not rated for high heat. If you plan to use your smoker for high heat (like a pizza / tandoori oven) then I would wait for the thermocouple support in 4.1.
Hope this helps,
