Reviews
I'm reluctant to give this
"I'm reluctant to give this 5 stars because so much of what I want to review is longevity, and I do not have that perspective yet. It works fantastically. 10/10 with respect to functionality, but for the price I want minimum 5 years out of it. If Thermoworks would like to follow up with me in 5 years I'd be happy to adjust this review if the unit is still working and has been supported during that period."
I have only used it
"I have only used it once so far, but it is so easy to use! The app and the interface are great, easy to set up and very accurate. I did buy the extra large case and 5 probe spools to keep it all organized, and that made it much easier to store. So far, I love it!"
I have a gravity fed
"I have a gravity fed smoker. Everything works got except when I open the door to my stumps stretch the temp will drop 25 degrees. The signals and billows fan does not allow you to adjust when the pulsating fan starts. It is programmed to start pulsating around 25 degrees below target tenp. And because of this it takes too long to get my stumps back up to set temp. I can’t believe that there is no adjustment for this as every smoker is different and one size does not fit all"
Best Tool!
"Best tool for boiling Peanuts ever!"
Works great and accurate. Combined
"Works great and accurate. Combined with her Billows blower, I can keep my temps at at steady level all the way thru the cook."
Amazing
"No words, just the best most consistent temp control I've ever had. Literally within . 5 of target temp for 90% of the cook"
wonderful
"It makes smoking easy."
Absolutely incredible
"Absolutely incredible"
Very short usage life
"I love this product, but. . . I don't think it's made very well. I've had it for several years but I'm only a home user that maybe smokes pork shoulders 1-4 times per year. That means, at most, I've used this product 20 times. Today, it lost wifi connectivity and the screen was showing garbage so I rebooted it. It reconnected to wifi but one of the temp probes began malfunctioning. About an hour later, wifi dropped again so I rebooted again. This time, wifi never came back and two sensors were providing inaccurate data. About an hour later, the unit completely failed and will not turn on and will not reset. For $250, it should be a robust and reliable product which it is not."
A step forward for me
"A step forward for me - was using the Smoke remote thermometer, but this is far better in that it hooks to my WiFi and reliably alerts me on the app. Having 2 additional probes is also very nice. Good upgrade."
Q&A
- does this come with the probes and if so how many?
- Yes, the ThermoWorks Signals comes complete with 4 probes right out of the box: 3 Pro-Series® High Temp Penetration Probes (for tracking meat/food temperatures) 1 Pro-Series® High Temp Air Probe with an included grate clip (for tracking pit/ambient oven temperature)
- What dose HHH mean
- HHH could mean a couple of different things. Either the temperature you're reading is above 572°F, or the probe or cable is damaged. You can give our Tech Support a call if you have any questions. 801-756-7705
