Hey Tony, I have a really silly question. But, since we have the #3 with the Aubers. Don't we have the same thing as a digital controlled #3? Sorry have to leave the part and introduce the neighbors dog to Mr Beretta. Is dog good smoked, you all know my wife is Chinese. lol Got to run and get stuff for the injection for my brisket as it goes in the #3 in the am.
Not a silly question, Bill! Remember: There are no "stupid questions," but I have found the world is full of curious idiots. LOL!! Love that one! Seriously, though, yes - what we have achieves the same end results. The reason to make a digital model is for convenience and to be competitive in the market. Many folks don't want to have to attach a separate box to their smoker, and do the bypasses and things we pioneers have done (they're lazy, I guess - go figure). Just kidding, of course!
A smoker, competing with the main SI competitors, that already has an integrated digital controller will be big! Convenience, and accuracy all in one package!
Stay tuned...it's no secret we've been working on it for the last year and a half+! Big undertaking, though - more than most can imagine.
