Does the probe fit in/work in a thermowell?

I haven't tried this unit in a thermowell, but the sensing element is a small cylindrical end that could certainly fit into a well. I would suggest you might want to stuff something into the well to get the sensor into intimate contact with the wall of the well for faster and more accurate response. The sensor is pretty small. Not good for high temperatures that could melt the cable from the sensor to the display. Unit worked well for a freezer application.

yes absolutely. in fact I ordered this one which is metal-sheather and far better quality than the original that comes with the unit. Polder 359 Replacement Probe for the Preprogrammed Cook's Thermometer (307)

No. I glued the probe to the inside of an aluminum cigar tube and tried to waterproof that. You can also look for a stainless steel temperature probe that is linear and use the built in temperature offset

For what you're doing, thermometer placement would be critical. You'll have a much higher temperature gradient in soil than in compost. You might try inserting at a shallow angle to get more of the probe at a given depth.

The probe is probably around 6 inches. From what I could tell it is the first 1/2 inch to 1 inch that registered the temp.

I don't know; however, Amazon's review for the "Replacement Probe for ThermoWorks TW362B Oven Thermometer" says THAT probe will fit the Pampered Chef. Check those reviews.

Yes, the probe (thermocouple) is sealed in rubber and should be waterproof.

The "connectors" are pretty-much universal in nature. If you look at a close-up of the plug for the probe you're considering buying, you can easily compare it to "what you presently own". That's what I did and everything worked out just fine. And, at the very least, you can always return an item if it's not the right kind. (I mean, check with the seller first to make sure this is okay) Oh, and a Polder replacement probe should surely fit a Polder thermometer.

The instant read probe will not. The high heat probe will fit through a 1/4 inch hole.

Don,t see why not, temp is temp. Inside the probe is a thermpcouple, that sendstiny amounts of electricity to the meter which is read in degs. But keep it feom gettingwet where the wire comes out of the probe.

I was looking at your thermometer on the QVC website and it appears it had the same size plug as the replacement probe in question. So it should work. Hope this helps.

Not sure, my probe is mounted on the underside of my truck and it gets soaked when it rain so far working good. Good luck.

I'm sorry, I can't help you on this one. I bought the replacement for a 20 yr old WOK(can't remember the model #: wait one: model 343) and the probe was a touch(several mm) too long to give a snug fit, but it does work...it just doesn't feel safe to use....but i'm careful. So I'd say if your model is more recent give it a try.

Yes. Just make sure the probe cable doesn't touch any hotspots and isn't jammed in anything.

Yes. The seller DBROTH has replacement probes (here on Amazon IIRC) and is very responsive. But do read all the reviews.

I'm not sure what their official stance would be, but I would say "yes." The probe they package with the ChefAlarm is rated to 572F, and short-term exposure all the way up to 700F. I've certainly never had any issues with probe failures that seemed to be secondary to heat (at least, not with ThermoWorks probes). Having said that, I usually recommend purchasing a second replacement probe just in case; repeated kinking at high temps *can* cause issues even with the best probes, and it can be really annoying to be stuck without a usable probe at the wrong moment.

the only way that would work is if you drilled a hole in the oven. The probe needs to be inside and the dial or face needs to be outside of the heat source.
