Not being able to set a high and low alarm for the ambient temperature is also an issue for me.
A simple solution would be to update the app to allow the maximum temperature under the “Hot Smoke” and/or “Cold Smoke” custom setting from 203" to 300F. We could then use one of the four probes as an ambient temperature monitor to notifiy us if our smoker gets too hot or too cold in the middle of the night.
Is that an idea you will relay to the Inkbird app engineers?
just noticed this as well. i have to use another probe from a diff brand to get warnings on ambient temps. fix the app please
Please kindly understand that the detection range of the stainless steel meat probe is -10~100℃/14~212℉. Exceeding these limits may cause irreparable damage to the probe.
Therefore, even if the upper limit of the alarm range is adjusted to 300F, it will still only be effective for the meat probe, but the meat probe cannot be placed in an environment above 212F.
Currently, implementing this functionality in the INT-14-BW model presents technical constraints. The engineering team is actively evaluating solutions for this requirement.
However, the good news is that this feature has been successfully integrated into the upcoming INT-11S-B model. Perhaps they will make more progress in the future.
I purchased this product when it was first released now we must wait for their upgraded version and spend more more. This is not good customer service and a waste of my hard earned money.
They may just have one software engineer work 15 minutes per month on a fix and still no solution.
Would appreciate a timeline for when we can expect this to be implemented in the int-14 BW and also input from your engineers why this is proving so difficult. The fact that you are still selling this with the descirption of a feature of “high and low temperature alarm” is greatly misleading. Customers will expect it to have an ambient temperature alarm from this description not a warning if the safe operating temperature has been exceeded. This basic feature will also be expected from the price point as has been mentioned several times.
We need to get clarification whether this feature will be implemented and if so when?
INT-14BW
Still no progress or updates on the implementation of the ambient temperature alarm needed for this product that should have been in place from day one.
