Awesome and Reliable Meat Thermometer (Finally!)
This is the first meat thermometer that actually worked correctly for me. I've trusted others only to be burned because they weren't accurate. I got to the point where I just couldn't trust the readings. This one was spot on and very accurate. The monitor was also handy as I could keep track of the temp wherever I was in the house and the turkey came our perfect. I will definitely be keeping this one and highly recommend it!

Highly recommended remote-reading thermometer
We grill a lot of fish in the summer, and lamb and beef during the winter. When grilling an expensive cut of meat, a Prime tenderloin for example, preserving the meat quality is imperative. A remote reading thermometer makes possible temperature monitoring while continuing to entertain guests. Here in Alaska, it's also often more comfortable to be inside rather than outside.All of these devices measure the temperature at the tip of metal probes, and transmit that temperature information to a receiver via a radio-frequency link. This allows the user to remotely monitor the temperature at the probe tip.I researched these radio-frequency-based remote reading thermometers to replace a long-time device and chose the ThermoPro TP-20. After thoroughly reading directions, I inserted the enclosed batteries (very convenient), inserted the two temperature probes, and the sender and receiver established a radio-frequency link, with no need for my assistance. The two probes showed the same temperature probes provided the same temperature value, a quick check that the device was calibrated.I've not owned a dual probe remote thermometer before, but I used them both as I monitored the two ends of a 6-pound tenderloin. My family has rare-meat lovers and well-done lovers, and being able to monitor the thin and thick ends of the tenderloin allowed me to adjust the various heat sources on a gas grill. I usually use a charcoal grill and don't have the ability to control the heating to this degree, but it's still a useful piece of information. Of course I log the data, so the temperature differential will also be interesting to log. When planning a meal, it's useful to know that a 6-pound tenderloin, cooked on gas, with the meat at this temperature and outside temperature at that value, will require 1:30 to cook.The manufacturer claims that the sender and receiver will communicate over a 300-ft maximum distance, a distance that I did not measure, but it certainly worked well through a 120-foot distance and through heavy plaster walls. I am very impressed with that performance.The receiver, the controller of the system, has pre-sets for FDA-approved cooking temperatures for a wide range of likely-to-be-grilled foods. Although I didn't use the feature, the device also allows one to set other temperatures, instead. One can change from Fahrenheit to Celsius degrees, as well as access a timer and other features. Read the directions!Directions are easy to follow. The device was well-packaged, and included everything as advertised. It's easy to use and provides accurate temperature information.My first use was for an almost-two-hour grilling of a tenderloin cooked over gas. I enthusiastically recommend this device.

Good Sensor, Works Great.
So, I had gotten a smoker, and the included probe just wasn't cutting it. I needed more than one sensor, and also an alert. Sometimes I get busy, even though I have three briskets and two racks of ribs on the smoker.I didn't need NASA precision, nor did I need one that hooked up to my phone to alert me to temperature changes while I am in the grocery store. Just wanted something to measure the temperature of the meats while I am not staring at the smoker.I have to say I am happy with my purchase. I like that it has two probes, that the control unit displays both temps at once, and that I can set alerts on it.Don't like that the probes give different readings by a few degrees in the exact same spot or immediately adjacent to each other out of the meat. Also the low battery warning is lacking. So there I was, smoking an 18 lb brisket for a family get together. Stay up till 4:00 AM before I give up on hitting 185 degrees before passing out (was at 170.) I wrap my meat and let it finish cooking while I get a few hours of sleep. Mind you, I still use the probe on my smoker as well. I wake up at 8:00 AM, and roll over to look at my receiver display, and there is nothing. No display whatsoever. Dadgumit!!!!!!!!! Roll out of bed, dodge dogs and kids piled in the living room and manage to make it to my smoker to see that it is at 198 degrees and 205 degrees on the sensors. (Smoker sensor said 199.) (Cue music from Frozen) For the first time in a long time, my brisket is not as good and my wife actually says something not positive about my skills. Did not, have not seen anything for a low battery indicator, even when I took batteries that show they are low in other things and put them in.Other than that, I am quite happy with it.
