Simple Waterproof Remote Container

Simple Waterproof Remote Container

I like to use the K.I.S.S. method

Use a Rubbermaid or similar container with the large opening flap.

Drill a hole for the probes high up where the lid flap will cover it.

Place a weight in the bottom for stability and wind resistance.

When done with the smoking session remove the remote batteries and pack all in the container for safe storage.

Smokin is 1% fact, 22% manipulation of the fact and 77% speculation of the manipulation.

Strictly stability,  the weight keeps it from getting moved. Wind gust 30 to 40 mph during a summer storm is common here. It just depends if you are in the path.  :-[
