I’ll answer that question as well as explore the features, usability, accuracy, durability, and price of the ThermoPro TempSpike. There is also no WiFi connectivity possible with the TempSpike. This is a helpful feature should the Bluetooth signal cut out for some reason. Rechargeable & Waterproof: The Signal Booster for this wireless meat thermometer for grilling and smoking can last up to 3 months on a full charge; Wireless meat probe features IP67-rated stainless steel that is easy to clean, allowing you to always keep your space tidy, dishwasher-safe In this digital era, who doesn’t love a string-free cooking session? So, if you need a wireless meat monitor to observe the internal meat temperature or the ambient pit temperature, both Meater and ThermoPro are reliable choices. The only downside is its 33 ft limited range. Then again you cannot expect more from such an affordable meat probe.

We would share our findings, tips, and recipes with anyone who had a passion for grilling and smoking. Our dedication and passion for BBQ started to attract a following, and we soon realized that we had created something special. Over the years, the Topcellent has evolved into a one-stop-shop for anyone looking to master the art of grilling and smoking. Nevertheless, you can go with ThermoPro TempSpike if you need a probe that withstands high heat better. What blew me away about this versatile grilling tool is the waterproof stainless steel construction. Not only is it easy to clean but also easy to maintain. I was able to achieve a Bluetooth signal range of around 200 feet from inside my house to down the sidewalk. I have an ancient iPhone 7. The app can also turn features on and off, and customize the alarm sounds. Setting the disconnect sound to “creepy laugh” and the probe temperature to “howl” made them easy to distinguish from all the common beeps and boops in the kitchen. There are also a wide range of other sounds to choose from, or the alarm can be set to vibrate instead.The ambient temperature sensor that is located in the ceramic handle is responsible for measuring the cooking chamber temperature.

Zero connection issues–I was impressed that I did not lose connectivity at all throughout the cooking process. They come in digital and analog versions. Some people prefer digital because they feel it is more accurate, while others prefer analog because it is easier to read. In fact, the Original Meater 33 ft wireless meat probe could be your best companion for outdoor grilling. Whether you are cooking in an oven, grill, or smoker, it’s compatible with all of them. The 100% wire-free construction lets you cut the cord while outdoor grilling. You can see what’s exactly going on in your cook by pairing the probe to your smartphone through the Meater app.So whether you’re a grill master or just getting started, a BBQ and smoker thermometer is handy in your arsenal. Microwave Being the first ever truly wireless meat probe, Meater Original is an affordable option even for beginners.

Meater Original is a basic wireless probe that runs through the Meater app, the signature app from Meater for all their wireless tools. Both these smart meat thermometers are engineered with 100% wireless technology. There’s no cord to cut your way. No wire, no hassle. As for TempSpike, you get a booster in the form of a charger followed by a USB charging cable. The battery life for the booster is up to 3 months. What Are The SimilaritiesWhichever type you choose, make sure that it is oven-proof before placing it in your meat. This will ensure that you get an accurate reading and that your thermometer does not break. BBQ and Smoker None of the wireless meat probes I’ve tested over the last 3 years have been capable of reading ambient cooking temperatures accurately. The ThermoPro TempSpike is no exception. It is when you are cooking something smaller like a pork chop for a shorter period of time that you will definitely see a significant temperature difference even over a span of 0.5 inches. The Ambient Temperature Sensor of the TempSpike If we run a head-to-head comparison between the Original Meater and ThermoPro TempSpike smart thermometers, we see some basic differences. However, when you do low-and-slow cooking, this issue won’t bother you as the ambient sensor will give an accurate reading when the cooking time gets longer.

Having trouble pairing your TempSpike or experiencing other issues with the device? This article will provide you with everything you need to know! (for android users, scroll down for more helpful tips) This also doesn’t make them less accurate necessarily, there is just less room for error when attempting to find the middle of your meat. These cook time estimates are all based on faulty ambient cooking chamber temperatures, rendering these estimates useless. Durability The TempSpike has two thermometers integrated into its design. There is the tip of the probe (the side inserted into meat) that will measure the internal temperature of your food. There is also a thermometer on the end of the probe that will measure ambient temperature during your cook. With this dual-sensor smart meat probe, you can measure ambient temperature from 14°-572° F. And the internal temperature range is 14°-212° F.Some BBQ and smoker thermometers even come with multiple probes so you can measure the ambient temperature of more than one piece of meat at a time. This can be helpful if you’re cooking a large meal and want to ensure all the meat is perfectly cooked. This is ideal for large cuts of meat like roasts. To prevent heat from escaping while examining the meat, the external heat-reading unit is placed apart from the inside measuring unit. Overall design– The booster/charger is lightweight and easy to use, the probe is sleek and effective, and the overall design is top notch.
