Sync Wireless Meat Thermometer Quad | 4 Probes | 6 Sensors | LCD Display | WiFi and Bluetooth 5.3 | Improved Stability and Range | IPX8 Waterproof | for BBQ, Grill, Smoker, Oven, Kitchen

I have a few sets of wireless thermometers. A couple of them are called wireless, but actually have wires on the probes that must be connected to a base unit. The base unit connects to a phone app by Bluetooth that is wireless. The problem with this type of "wireless" thermometer is that, when using more than one probe, it can be difficult to keep the wires to the probes from tangling. In addition, when using them for smoking, the wires need to extend outside the door of the smoker which prevents sealing of the door or cover of the smoker.I do have a couple of other wireless thermometers that are Bluetooth. These thermometers are truly wireless, meaning no wires to the probes, but the distance to monitor them is limited to the distance of the Bluetooth connection which is not always optimal. In addition, in my experience, a Bluetooth connection can sometimes be interrupted if you are monitoring food and need to use a microwave to cook part of your meal. I returned one set of wireless thermometers that disconnected when I used the microwave. By the time I got it to reconnect the food was overcooked.I decided to find a WIFI connected wireless set of thermometers and chose this one because of the many positive reviews. I chose this set for the added convenience of the longer range supplied by WIFI vs. Bluetooth. My personal requirements for a wireless food thermometer are:1) Accurate and prompt reporting of the internal temperature of the food I am monitoring.2) An estimation of done time so that I can have sides prepared by the time the food being monitored is done.3) Connection of the probe to the phone app whether the microwave is being used or not.4) Consistent connection of the probe to the phone app so that I can monitor cooking from my phone most places in my house or outside.5) Intuitive use of the app or base to set up a cook.6) This set of thermometers satisfies most of my requirements.Although you can set up a cook using only the base unit, the choices are manual and basic.1) You can choose Manual to get an alert when the target temperature is reached or Smart to get an alert at an estimated temperature which is a temperature range. For both you can choose the preferred done temperature by using left and right buttons to scroll through the temperatures.2) You can edit or stop the cook.When you use the app,1) It opens with recipes that include recipe groups for the Typhur Dome, Typhur Dome 2, a Sous Vide Station, Typhur Sync (this wireless thermometer), and articles to explore. If you select a recipe, you are given a list of ingredients, oven temperature, and instructions for preparation. When you are ready, it sets up the cook using the selected probe.2) If you don't use a recipe, you can set up a smart cook by choosing a meat or fish type and then have a choice of various cuts. For example, beef has choices for steaks, roasts, and other. Each of these is broken down by beef cut, i.e., for steaks, there is sirloin, rib-eye, flank, etc. For each of these, you can choose a temperature range for doneness and then select a specific temperature. Once you make the selections, press start to set up the cook on the base unit.3) If you know what done temperature you prefer, you can skip smart cook and choose manual to enter the temperature you prefer.The reported internal temperature of foods is accurate as I have checked temperatures with an external manual probe, and the estimated done time is also spot on. The report of ambient temperature can be enlightening as you may find your cooking device does not reach the temperature set or that it runs hotter than the temperature you set. The app also offers graphs to report cooking, but I find these to be superfluous. I really don't care about these reports. I just want the food I am cooking cooked to the temperature I want and want to know when the food will be done.I have used this thermometer in a couple of my ovens and it works well. In my experience, this set of thermometers works well and is accurate for the temperatures set. Setup with my WIFI network and the app was very easy and works well. The only trivial improvement I can think of would be for the base unit to be magnetic so I can store it on my frig or the side of an oven to keep it handy. I may add a magnet strip to the back of the base unit to accomplish this. Overall, I am happy with this set of thermometers and will get used to setting up cooks on it as I use it.UPDATE 03/11/25:Since the probes connect to the base unit, the base unit must be placed within the Bluetooth range. For me, this is perfect as my back deck that has all of my outdoor cooking appliances is just outside of my kitchen that has a bay window facing the deck. I place the base unit in the bay window and the probes connect when used for anything on the deck. WIFI is used to connect the base unit to the phone app. So, I can monitor my cooking for as far as my WIFI connection works which is anywhere in my house and on the patio at the back of my house.Most recently, I used two of the probes in this set to smoke a beef sirloin tip roast. I used a popular brand pellet smoker and also used the two probes that connect to this grill/smoker. Although I set this smoker to 225 degrees, using the ambient temperature feature of these probes, I found out that this smoker runs hot. When set to 225 degrees, this smoker was actually at 250 degrees or more. With some foods, such as sirloin tip roast, that should be cooked slow for tenderness and better smoke infusion, this can be a problem. I turned down the temperature of the smoker to 200 degrees, and it maintained an ambient temperature closer to 225 degrees. I checked the temperature of the roast with a manual thermometer when it was done, and it was spot on for the temperature set. Although this roast was done much sooner than expected, I did appreciate that the app predicted how much time it would take to be done. I also learned that the suggested done temperatures for the various meats on the app are accurate. We had this roast for dinner, and my husband commented on how tender and moist it was. We both thoroughly enjoyed the smoke flavor. I very happy with this set of WIFI thermometers and would definitely recommend them for perfectly cooked meats.I hope this review was helpful for you.

I Love the Typhur Sync wireless meat thermometer. I bought it on sale and it is worth the money. It is exactly what I wanted and hoped for in a remote temperature sensor.It also had a little paper that came with it with the factory tested calibrations listed for this unit.I had a chance to do some initial testing with the Typhur Sync yesterday Feb 23rd 2024. I did a little runthough to get acquainted with it using a store bought already cooked Baby Back rack of ribs. Not the best choice as it was already cooked but at $10 from Costco it was ok to sacrifice. And it still turned out good.I Cooked on a Weber Genesis E-330 propane grill and used a smoke tube. In the past I have used this propane gas grill to smoke Ribs, Port Shoulders and Brisket with a Smoke tube. It is possible using one side burner and a Smoke Tube.I had also previously tried smoking with a custom smoker tray from Weber for my grill, which used wood chips, but that was mostly a failure. And I tried a Hot and Cold smoker unit on the back but it had limited success with the heat on.But using a smoke tube and one burner on low you can do an ok smoke on the grill if you can verify your temperatures.What I always struggled with was having faith in the grill hood's thermometer. It turns out the thermometer reads hotter than what the grill temps actually are around the meat! That resulted in an even slower low and slow cook and would not develope bark on pork shoulder.Using the Typher Sync you can see the internal meat temps on 5 spots in the thermometer Probe plus it has one external ambient temperature sensor. So 6 total temps per Probe and you get two Probes!When using the wifi mode it never looses signal. The base unit just should be kept close to the smoker, like 3 to 60 feet or so and it will relay the bluetooth data from the Probes immediately to the wifi so you can use the APP to see your status of the cook. Alternatively you can just use the base with wifi or bluetooth in a manual or smart mode.When I did my test it did a firmware update prior to the start of the cook as it told me one was available to install. That took like 2 minutes since it was already in wifi mode. The firmware version I used was: 100016.From the APP you can configure 1 or 2 Probes for individual use on the same hunk or meat or two separate items on the same or different grills with the same or different cooking parameters. It depends on how you set it up.You choose the meat type and cut and the final temp to reach for that cut with some temperature recomendations that you can adjust.It senses the internal temps from 5 internal sensors and displays an temps of all 5 and an average depending on if you are in Basic mode (white background with less details) or Professional Mode (black background and more details)The Professional mode seems best for me. Seeing all the temps helps to verify that the Probe is placed in a good location. If it is improperly placed some readings may read too hot meaning it is too close to the surface or exposed. So in those cases, reposition the Probe. On a thick peice of meat the cent most sensor will read cooler than the others depending on their distance to the surface.You can use the external sensors to help determin how to position the meet for your cooker or grill. All grills swwm to have hot and cooler areas. If it is cooler on one side or the other, reposition the meat to get it more equal. Or use the cooler side for the thinner end of the meat. This can also be verified by the checking internal temperatures or you can use both probes on the same piece of meat like I did for this rack of ribs which naturally has a thicher end and a thinner end.I have included some of the pictures from the cook with some photos of the base unit and others in the App at various times on the cooking process.The app displays a graph with the target internal ending temperature,The current and past temperatures of each of the 5 interal sensors and the 1 external sensor.Each Probe has its own graph line on the screen. You can slide back and forth between the Probes. You can also go back to the main status screen that shows basic stats of both Probes on one screen at the same time but no graphs or individual sensor readings. It main status screen shows the averaged current reading for internal tempurature, ambiant external temp, target temp and the estimated remaining time before reaching the target tempurature. This is the same as the base unit will display.The Pro version of the app can be selected by toggling the icon in the upper righthand corner. It displays all the same information as the Basic mode and much more.The Pro version displays separate graph lines for each of the 6 temperature sensors. It also displays an outline of the Prope near the top of the display along with the positions of all the sensors in the Probe!You can press one of the temperature sensors locations and it will highlight its graph line. You can further slide your finger around that graph line and it displays the temperature at that position on the line!But the App also warns you that your cook is within 5 minutes of completing with an autible sound if you have your notification sound volume turned up. It also displays a message on top of the current APP screen display. And when you start the cook it will warn that your notification sound is not turned on or up enough.It has messages for each Probe for 5 minute before the cook ends, when the Cook completes, Please remove your food from heat, and Cooking complete after it is done with the 5 minute resting period. It also will remind you that your Probe was not returned to the base unit after a while of sitting in normal room temperatures!Along the way those warnings alert you with a chime sound via your notification sound. It also warns you if your notification sound is turned off when you go to complete the setup of your cook. The base unit will also alert and sound for most of these steps as well. The sound on the base unit will stop when you acknowledge the warning/alert on the App or the unit.The app and base unit also tracks the battery levels of the base unit and both Probes. During the 3 hours I played with it they were at Full the whole time.The App also has a pretty extensive meat setting menu for selecting your type of meat: Beef Pork, Poultry, Lamb, Fish and Other and Manual setting. Other has Venison, Mutton, Kangaroo, Goat and Other! It also lets you select the type of cut for that meat with suggest temps for all cuts.If appropriate it gives you temperature selections for Rare, Medium Rare, Medium, Medium Well, and Well done for most meats. And you can overide any of those to chose your own setting if you like it a bit more or less done.The App also has recipes but there are not currently any taylored for use with a Typhur Sync.But there is also an "Explore" section in the App that had some good articles. Make sure you press the arrow > link to see them all. It has topics like Reverse Sear Steak Temperature and Time,Carryover Cooking: Remove Your Meat at a Lower Temperature than Target,Best Tri Tip Temp: How to Know If Tri Tip is Done,How Long to Grill Chicken Breast Perfectly Juicyand various other guides.The Typhur Sync is a very nice quality unit. It works well and it will be great for keeping track of a longer 10+ hour brisket or shoulder. Or even for shorter cooks in a air fryer or oven or grill where you want a particular internal temperature and do not want to over shoot it by waiting to long on a recheck with a hand held unit.Please see all the photos for better detail. The place where the ambient temperature drops was from opening the grill hood to put some sauce on the ribs and check things.Great Product!
