I guess the question is, without spending days reading about it, is this a "project" or a "hobby"?
Is this something a guy of decent technical skills can get going pretty quick or is this an ongoing hobby that will never be "finished".
I was shopping for a bluetooth thermometer. I bought an iGrill mini. Well I might as well sit next to the smoker for as far as the bluetooth will reach! So I went shopping again. Looked at some device from ebay that the guy seems to be spamming every smoker site with. Looked at the CyberQ and that seemed like the one I needed, pricey but it seems to be the ticket. I even thought about building one with a PLC because that is closer to my area of knowledge.
Then I came across the HeaterMeter. If it is as it looks it should do everything that the CyberQ will do and it might just be cheaper.
BUT, I really don't want another hobby, If this can be done with minimal investigation and education, then I am all in.
And words of wisdom?
Good contact info? Some of the threads I saw were getting pretty old.
