I had a similar experience with a thermapen that was faulty. After 3 months, they finally refunded my money. I bought a Lavatools Javelin and never looked back. In my experience equal quality to the thermapen and half the price.

Grilla Grills has been pushing back against adding Wi-Fi to their smokers because of these types of reasons. Reality is that a lot of people have no idea what they are doing and it's not their fault as it can be extremely complicated. Imagine trying to troubleshoot this stuff over the phone when people can't even tell you if they're using Android or iOS. haha I am not saying that's the problem in this instance with SmokeDawg, but instead just mentioning that maybe all this extended stuff isn't worth it. Themoworks worked perfectly when it was just the Smoke and had its own receiver.

Fastest has always been USPS. And often after FedEx has bumbled and fumbled a package along, they give it to the USPS and it arrives quickly. But in the world of the Internet, these dings have to be avoided at all costs. Because they become the death knell for a business.

I avoided WiFi in my MES. I could find incidence after incidence of trouble with built ins.
I opted for separate temperature monitoring, and don't let my butt slow me down about paying attention. When I'm cookin, I'm cookin.

another 7 day trip !! through UPS have no idea why takes 7 days.
Having worked at UPS years ago it appears they are shipping it Ground the entire way (the cheapest way). Sounds to me like they should be paying for UPS Express overnight for all your hassle.

I love the Thermapen and ThemaPop. They do seem to have a problem with remote control like Wi-Fi and Bluetooth.
Just FYI, Here are a couple of reviews I did for Ink Bird. I'm not affiliated with them in any way. https://www.bbq-brethren.com/forum/s...d.php?t=275400 https://www.bbq-brethren.com/forum/s...d.php?t=271147

It’s unfortunate what has occurred to say the least. Love my MK4 and my smoke works well.
I agree with Happy Hapgood, my inkbrid’s work excellent, especially for the cost, and use them 99% now with the smoke sitting in a case. |
