I have the Maverick and the wireless is limited by range. The pit temperature alarm is nice to let you know when you need to get out of bed to adjust the control in the freezing rain.
I'm tempted to get a wifi version that is completely automated. This gives me a lot of flexibility to run errands, full night sleep, cook while at work, better range, and more. The more convenient, the more I cook. I want a simple device for the home cooker, weatherproof, durable, great quality, and at a reasonable cost. There's still a lot of room for improvement in the market, and I haven't found one that really fits into my criteria. But the WiFi Stoker catches my attention. Jake |

My pit temps have all been controlled by simple tweaks of the vents.
I use my Maverick ET-732 to monitor. I set the alarms for overnight cooks and also set my cellphone alarm to wake up every so often and glance at the readout. Most overnight cooks, though, find me enjoying a cold beer and catching up on my favorite shows via DVR or AppleTV: Justified, Son's, etc.

I use my Heatermeter that I built to control my claypot Imperial Kamado for long overnight cooks. Don't really need it as the claypot holds temps very well, but it is nice so that I can get some sleep and not worry about it. Also, if things get out of control, my Heatermeter will send me a text message when a certain alert temperature is reached.

Mexican ATC (The "Solamenteme").
Two pipe nipples and a ball valve. Building my own now that I have my UDS pretty much dialed in. It's based on the Arduino, and the code is written. I just need to hook it up to the UDS with some chicken thighs and do the damn thing.
