Thermoworks 4 Probe Device - Signals - Bluetooth and Wifi
« on: October 27, 2018, 08:09:16 AM »

I received an email today from Thermoworks promoting using probes in your food while cooking.  In the picture, I noticed what looked like a 4 probe Smoke unit.  I don't see it on their website yet.  I suspect maybe they are holding it out to introduce it for a Black Friday sale or something special like that.  I just found it interesting that they would have a picture of it in use but not mention anything about it in the story.  It also had colored grommets on the probe and opposite end of the cable where you plug it into the unit so you can more easily tell which probe was which temperature on the units screen.

I may have to buy one and start selling some of my other stuff when it is ready for sale.

Thanks for that close up picture.  It looks like the unit is wifi and bluetooth based on the symbols in the top left corner.

Yep, me, too.  My birthday's coming up and I'm hard to buy for.  I'll drop some suggestions hints.

 Thermoworks never ceases to amaze me..They just keep  on developing new products, a lot based on proven existing technology.

 I like the different coloured silicone, I D, o-rings. Good to have when using multiple probes, or to I D the ones in storage.

I noticed the same today as well. I did a "reply" or "comment" on the blog site asking what it was. (Can't see my comment though, not sure if I will get a response or not :))
Anyway, looks like it is called "Signals" when I enlarged the pic.
Hmmm, Smoke, Signals, maybe it will pair with the Gateway as well.
ETA: also like the look of the solid back instead of the 'kickstand'. Maybe a magnetic back as well for different mounting options?

I bet it doesn't need a gateway.  WiFi and bluetooth could possibly be built in.  It seems to be thicker than the smoke.

yes, looks thicker and looks like wifi and bluetooth built in with no need for a gateway like the Smoke.

Doh! Makes total sense! Was not registering the Bluetooth and WiFi in my head...
So, my comment/inquiry pointing out the 4 probes has not been posted with other comments.  Guess we'll just have to wait 'til TW announces it.

More probes, try this. I bought one a couple of months ago for $39.99. Not as robust as my Smoke but works great with the app.

The Official eBay store for Tenergy has them for $50 (banner across the top).  Your price is better.

How’s the Bluetooth range?  It’s usually not great.
