Well, I'm done messing with the Maverick garbage. Ordered this puppy tonight:http://www.thermoworks.com/products/logger/bluetherm_duo.html

I already have the Thermoworks ChefAlarm,and I've been extremely happy with it. It's pricey stuff, but the accuracy/quality can't be beat.

Aaron,

I have been looking at this unit also, but it is on the pricy side. Can't wait to hear how you like it.

Thanks Greg

It is crazy expensive. Especially since you have to buy the probes separately. But, I already have the ChefAlarm, and its build quality is unmatched I've been very happy with it. I'll post up my review on this one as soon as I do the first smoke with it.

I use an igrill2 and love it. It has good range, is accurate and uses AA batteries instead of the expensive wafer in the igrill mini. The thing I like most is the temperature graph that displays in the app. You can watch 4 probes at once and it will show the temp of one probe on the unit itself. The app is easy to use and I have had no problems syncing with my iphone6.
