Great video! I moved and can’t get my Signals to link to WiFi. Any suggestions?
Thank you for the detailed review and video on the signals. I just bought one for myself. I don't do much BBQ (since I live in Canada where it's too cold most of the time) but I do long braises ALL the time. And that is something I do want to mention. What probe would I use for Braising?
The product, in general, seems to be marketed towards smoking and BBQing (dry) rather than braising or Sous Vide (wet). Between talking to a thermoworks rep and what they have on their website, it seems like the probe itself is ok to be submerged but given the inside of a pot during braising is usually a very damp environment it'd be tricky to not get the whole thing wet. Their website suggests using the longer straight probe for submerging so you can keep the rest of it out of the water, which would work. They also have a waterproof high temp probe, which isn't rated for all liquids but should be OK? All in all, i found this very confusing. So far I've settled in on the high temp waterproof probe for the meat itself and the regular probe that comes with the signals with just the probe going into the pot to measure the liquid? would that work?
Wow what a great super helpful video. David – I can’t wait to watch more of your work.
Great video, just ordered this product, got $72 off the price because they were blowing out the pink color model. Could care less about the color. Just keep me informed on my cook is all I need!! Great job. Subscribing and liking, ultimate cook would be Brisket and Lobster or king crap on my BGE.
Rite now I am trying to learn how my new Yoder YS640S heats so l need 4-6 temp probes as it has zones like an offset. Once l do that l just want a reliable temp monitor for the meat I'm smoking. Thanks.
Can you use this in an oven?
Would you recommend this over the flameboss?
Would you Still recommend the Signals and Billows?
Great video, very informative. Thanks!
Great video. Have y’all ever tested the Apple Watch app? It’s never worked for me after 2 years. Have tried reinstalling and other obvious fixes. Otherwise, it’s a great product.
My dream cook would be a Large 3”, 2 lbs. tomahawk steak, 2 lb. Lobster with drawn butter, a bucket of fresh clams, fresh garlic bread, Parmesan Roasted Asparagus, a side of abalone. Take me to the hospital! I guess I can dream. I’m just starting Barbecuing. I really haven’t done any research, but I ordered a Weber 22 in. Performer Charcoal Grill should be here Thursday June 8. I would love to have a Thermoworks Signals 4 Channel Wifi Thermometer. I'm ready to learn/try. Love you video. Thanks
The Smoke X is not legal to own in the UK which is so disappointing and so I have to choose between regular Smoke and Signals
Smoke is fine except only IP65 (not IP66) and its range might be iffy as it is not the Smoke X.
Signals does everything except it is expensive and has terrible battery life
good video
Great Video!! I just bought a Signals and your video is far better than anything if seen by Thermoworks on how to set up the Signals.
This is one of the best videos I have EVER watched on YouTube. Straight to the point, Answered every question I had, Very clear, No music in the background, Mentioned every accessory, and I can tell you thought of the viewer vs. yourself when making an outline to create this video. I liked, subscribed, and clicked the bell within the first 7 minutes of the video. I may like and subscribe, but I rarely hit the bell. However, in this case I want to know what you are putting out right away. Thanks for all the time, effort, and research you put into helping us make a buying decision. You truly rock!!!!
Maybe you could have walked us through on how to set up the app!!!
Another great review video, thx for sharing After having it for a while now what are your thoughts around the recharging of the unit?
Hello. Newbie here. I am looking for a thermometer that can be used on the grill and indoors in the oven. Will this work or should I get something else? Thank you.
So, I notice that you have a Memphis grill (which I have as well). Why don't you use the Memphis probes that attach to the grill computer ? I ask because I don't use them as I feel they periodically crash the Memphis computer – which has ruined cooks. I just gave up on them. I am wondering if others have the same issue – or there is another reason (accuracy ?) Great video – and thank you !
Can I keep it plugged in and it work for days or weeks at a time? I’m looking to put it in a boiler thanks
Does this work well for long and slow cooks, like a 16 hour cook? Will the battery last? Also will the alarm sound when the app is not open? Like in the middle of the night, not the base, but an alert on the phone?
I use a SmokinTex commercial smoker. I smoke several briskets at one time and since each cut is slightly different the Signals multi-probe thermometer would be an outstanding way to maintain a premium cook.
I just wanted to give you a update in case you didn’t already know. Thermal works has extensions you can use to lengthening your temp probe for your Signals product. For me it’s a big deal because I don’t like my Signals next to my cooker. I try to get it as far away from the heat as possible.
Thanks for the video! It's exactly what I was looking for before making a purchase 🙂
This may be a silly question, but should I be concerned about the durability of the cables at all? I'm mostly thinking of whether flare-ups could take the cables over the max temp they are rated for withstanding!
Will the alarm ring on your phone through the app, or just at the base unit? Thx
Whats the battery life?
I do a lot of cooks that I am not around the house and I want to see what the temp of the meat and the grill are. Is this the best thing to buy for me ?
Great review! I was looking for a multi-probe temperature monitor and the Signal looks great. I just hope my wifi signal reaches far enough to reach my smoker. I always wanted a controlled fan too. When I saw that Billow fan, I was sold. I have the ThermoPen and ThermoPops, and they are must haves, great quality. Hoping the Signal proves to be a winner.
