Review on 🌡️ ThermoPro TP08S: Ultimate Wireless Digital Meat Thermometer for Grilling, Smoking, BBQ, and Oven - Dual Probe Kitchen Cooking Food Thermometer by Kelly Hunt

Revainrating 3 out of 5

A glaring weakness...

It certainly works well. In any case, the two devices remain connected over long distances as advertised. The only glaring weakness of this device? And this is important to me - the default mode for this thermometer after turning it on is to disable alarms. This allows you to customize all of your chef's parameters - temperature ranges, ideal cooking temperature, etc., but if you don't press the button to turn on the sound, it's all for naught. Trust me, it's easy to lose sight of everything related to smoking meat. I've had this thermometer for over a year now and although I don't grill every day I use it quite a bit. Many times I've looked back at this thing after I've started cooking and found that my temperature was about 10-15 degrees too high and not once did the alarm go off. Experienced smokers (ha!) know that bringing the temperature down once you get past it is quite difficult. Is something that has happened to me more than once related to this issue? Changing batteries while cooking. The device has memory to remember your temperature settings, but not your alarm settings for some weird reason. If you change the batteries during use, turn it back on and it will turn off the alarm by default. I will say that this is a pretty good thermometer once you get over this major drawback.
