I have never used a guru, but I have a new Humphrey's battle box on order and wanted some opinions on the best Guru to buy for it? I'm looking for ease of operation.
Debatable, but probably the DigiQ2. One probe for the pit and one for meat. Simple up and down arrows to control either.
I have the Down East Beast and thought I wanted a Cyber-Q. I went with a Digi-Q II because I planned on getting the Cyber-Q at a later date.
I am happy with the ease of the Digi-Q as well as the operation of it, that I really have no need for the Cyber-Q anymore.
Yes, the Digi-Q only has 2 probes, 1 meat probe and one pit probe. It is so accurate and reliable I can set it at 9:00 PM and it controls the pit perfectly until late the next morning. It's like having a pit sitter while I soundly sleep.
Wiuld it be nice to view it from my computer? Yea it would, but the current Digi-Q works so perfectly I couldn't be any happier.

Thanks for the feedback. I'm pretty tech savvy, but I think I'm still leaning toward the Digi-Q. Plus, I already have a few extra thermoworks probes I can use for additional meats. Do you use the Pit Viper or Pit Boss fan on your Down East Beast?
I use the 25 cfm fan. I was told by the brethren that the 10 cfm would be adequate, but i like the idea of having that extra air if I need it. I run the fan wide-open with no restrictions except on the exhaust (50%) as recommended by Humphrey's. Great positive pressure and no condensation inside the pit, always perfectly dry...
