Alternative to ET-733?

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.

Pricey, but very nice!  I bet that's a great unit - looking forward to your review!  Be sure to give it a full review in the "Gadgets & Gizmos" section!
 
Will do. It's definitely a pricier option, at $200 for the unit, which includes no probes. The armored "smokehouse" pro es are $50 each. So, out the door it was a little over $300.

In several other hobbies, motorcycling and photography, I've learned "buy once, cry once". Basically, buy the best you can afford the first time, instead of waiting money on multiple cheap options. I should have bought the Thermoworks unit in the first place, instead of the Maverick.
 
Hey Aaron, since you mentioned it Motorcycles. You know HD stands for High Dollar not Harley Davidson. lol Good luck with your new Blue Therm...

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.
