are you able to hook up a pyrometer?

Yes, edge sells a pyrometer that works with the insight. You will need the edge EAS cable also to hook it up. I spent aprox $130 for the pyrometer with and EAS cable. I hope this helps.

I used the edge expandable pyrometer set up because you can add to it if you ever want to add any other sensors. It allows you to piggy back the sensors and have one plug in to the monitor.

Yes, it has the capability of reading egt's, newer trucks like a Ford 2008 or newer have sensors built in and the edge allows you to read it

Yes. The metal insulation protects the wires, letting you check the temp. without opening the grill/smoker.

yes you can. keep in mind that for this device to work effectively and accurately you need to be as close as possible to the object. the Ratio is 40:1 which means that is you have two objects next to one another (with different temperatures) and you are not close enough you will not see the difference on temp. The way the algorithm works is averaging the reading of the surface versus the distance to the raytek meter. I hope this helps. please also check the specs of the unit where this concept is fully explained.

Sure you can. Works like a charm. Set it and alarm will beep on temp. Nice machine. The wire can over heat in the BBQ tho. Learning exp. just get new probe. And also be careful not to pull by the wire. It possibly might pull out and not work after. Pull by the solid probe! �

Mine does not have a thermometer. It's a bit hit or miss, I guess. I just use a temp lying somewhere on the dial between the High setting (for ignition) and the lowest. I guess I don't BBQ scientifically. Sorry.

yes, if there is some kind of electrical component to the furnace for ignition and temp control.

you would be able to manually light the burners with a match/lighter, but the oven would not work, nor would the electric ignitor

Yes you can. You can google the manual at BBE website. There are different ways to hook it up.

Matt, yes this can be, but read the directions on the thermometer. For outside grills (I realize this isn't a grill and gets nowhere near the temperature of one), wrap the coil to the probe in aluminum foil. I have several friends that smoke their meat using this thermometer. Hope this helps

I don't believe the Pyrex Digital probe oven thermometer is mfg any more. Google "tech support Thermoworks", they make great units that are better than the Pyrex was and their probes might be compatible with your base unit, or for about $9 you can buy one and try it yourself. Thermoworks sells both probes and complete unit in a variety of configurations.

I would not try to use the meat probe. The wire from the Monitor to the probe would get tangled while the rotisserie is spinning. You could use the temp probe to monitor the BBQ temp as long as it was fixed to grate.

Yes, the unit came with a clip on temp gauge with a fairly short probe that work fine.

As others have said, you can probably use the metal-corded probe to measure oven temp if it's not touching metal. It doesn't do it concurrently as my old Polder did, however.

I don't see why you couldn't- the probes come out of the base and that transmits to the handheld thermometer.. You will need a shelf or a stand or something near the smoker that you can put that base on - obviously outside the smoker where it's not hot... Since the temps are usually low when smoking I don't think you'll need to worry too much about the internal heat affecting the probe or wire - it will be the placement of the base will be your issue..hope that makes sense?

Yes, it can measure the temp continuously, however it cannot be left in the oven or a grill/smoker. To use in a oven, etc. you would need a temp probe ona heat resistant cable and the control unit away from the heat.

Yes, this would be able to check the temp of a BBQ or smoker. I have had one for a few months now and it has worked great so far. No problems or issues.

The display unit works fine and easily has the range to cover your needs. The method you need to take the measurement may require you to buy a different type of Type K thermocouple that is supplied. The thermocouple probes they supply are very small gauge and tip that is welded so they break easy and since it is small it will react to small changes in temperature. Also take care not to revers the probes in the connectors because the meter body is not keyed to prevent revers connections.
