Meater 2 Plus vs ThermoPro TempSpike vs Typhur Sync: *ONE CLEAR WINNER*

Which wireless thermometer probe is the best overall pick? While all 3 of these units did the job, the Typhur Sync had the most features and functionality I look for in a quality wireless thermometer. What did you decide? Please share your thoughts on the comments below!

Typhur by far is the most state of the art with bluetooth 5.4 which is why you got that range compared to the older 5.2 from the others. Nice review.

[@pdubowner]

Thanks for the review. I just got mine, looking forward to using it.

[@Texmade3]

Awesome depth of testing and made my decision easy. Was leaning towards the tupher but you got me over the edge.! Thank you!!!

[@MadPick]

Great video, thank you. I agree with your conclusion!

[@HuSmokin]

Thanks for watching!

[@UncleTimsFarm]

Great video. Keep it up.

[@HuSmokin]

Thanks!

[@michaelcollier5164]

Congrats on your escape from Oakland.... great comparison. Thank you

[@HuSmokin]

Haha. Thank you.

[@waymor2460]

Have you done any testing of the accuracy of the ambient temp sensors? To me that’s just as important as the internal temp accuracy. The built in sensor on my pellet smoker is not close to accurate so I rely on a secondary temp probe which is currently wired. Thanks for the review.

[@NuarStanger]

But how many of them could survive searing over direct fire?

[@rfischer1984]

I ordered the typhur sync on amazon for 183. I checked and seems like i got it on sale and it is now back up. But still only 199.

[@issombeituni]

What’s the battery life on probes and unit got the typhus

[@jerryxiong5159]

Great tests! I wished you wouldve tested the battery life of the probes.

[@HuSmokin]

Ah! You’re right. I can do that and pin the results in the comments. If it helps, and assuming the new MEATER does what the previous one could, all 3 have lasted over 20 hours before. This was tested over a 10 hour cook with brisket followed by the cool down and oven hold for another 10 hours.

[@UkuleleJayBBQ]

@@HuSmokin 50 hrs on Typbur and when you register you also extend your warranty to 3 years way beyond anyone else’s warranty.

[@hojobbq]

I picked up the Typhur Sync a month or so ago - have to save it works great - on the App - are you able to put a range of temps for the ambient temp (like you can do with the MEATER) so that it will notify you if your temp goes below or above that range ? Thank you

[@HuSmokin]

Congrats! Glad you’re still enjoying yours. To answer your question, absolutely. From the app you’ll want to set up “alerts” by selecting the probe then press the bell icon toward the bottom right. Press the “+” icon and you’ll see options to set up ambient, internal, and general time alarms. If you’re using both probes, you’ll need to do this for each. Hope that helps!

[@hojobbq]

@@HuSmokin thank you!

[@s0do]

Thanks for the video, how are you guys enjoying life in Colorado?

[@HuSmokin]

👍🏼 Colorado has been very good to us. Smoking meat at this altitude has been a learning process and the ocean is definitely missed.

[@midegola5623]

I have a meater 2,and that thing disconnects and reconnects so much I want to toss it in the trash

[@adansaenz8752]

Awesome video... Do you take the the unit you picked everywhere? You do take your phone. So with the one you picked I'm assuming you carry both phone and standalone unit together? Meater on the app in your phone. I don't see your reasoning. Hands down Meater ...... Good info thou. Thanks.

[@HuSmokin]

Hey Adan thanks for the feedback. I'm not sure I follow what you're saying about taking my phone everywhere though. Yes I do take my phone everywhere. With either the Meater, TempSpike or Typhur units, you'll want to keep the base close to your cooker/probes. Then the base unit will transmit the probe readings via bluetooth to your phone. The problem here is that bluetooth can only transmit so far, so depending on your home or competing signals, you'll have limited range to keep getting those readings on your phone. Personally, I can't get the Meater to stay connected via Bluetooth when I have my phone upstairs. Of the 3, only the Typhur Sync has WiFi built into the base. This means the probe sends data to the base unit, then the base unit connects to your home Wi-Fi into the Typhur servers... and this gives you the ability to monitor the cook from anywhere as long as you have data access from your phone. So when I'm roaming around the house, doing some yard work out front, and running to the store for a quick errand... I can continue monitoring my progress from the Typhur app. In regards to the standalone feature, again you're right in that I usually have my phone with me. But I can also be a little old school in that I don't want to be tethered to it all the time. I like how the Typhur and the TempSpike give me immediate readings from the display so when I'm multitasking in the kitchen and preparing a Christmas meal, I don't have to pull my phone out with my dirty hands, open the app, and wait for the data to refresh to see my temps. Instead, I can just look down at the base unit and that's it... done. Hopefully that clarifies why I continue to choose Typhur unit over the Meater.

⁠@@HuSmokincouldn’t have explained it better myself….I think they are both good but I definitely think your right, the typhur is the clear winner …..but the price I think scares people , but remember your getting two probes AND Wi-Fi capabilities with quick read Display…..that’s definitely something to take in consideration

[@HuSmokin]

The sticker shock is very real, especially when you consider how many alternatives there are on the market. The Typhur definitely falls under the category of buy once cry once 👍🏼

[@mikehouser7587]

Would have been nice to have done a cook with all 3 in that big piece of meat..

[@stevec9231]

Just got Typhur for $159 with $40 off coupon.

[@Waterproof56]

got the tyfur for 150 now

[@HuSmokin]

That is awesome!

[@mannyr8795]

I thought you weren’t allowed to smoke in the new place??? Could you have kept the 1975? Tough on the channel with out her 😂

[@HuSmokin]

Haha! I am. But gas and pellets only. Even the charcoal smokers I wanted to use are technically a no no. Plus we don’t have the space for such a majestic beast anymore. Yah as you can tell after the 1975 left… the channel has been crickets.

[@HedlessHorsman]

I own all 3, and I'll never buy Meater again. I've had 7 of their products, and they're consistently junk. I despise Tappeque, Fireboard, and Chef IQ fir the same reasons. I love my ThermoPro and Typhur. Thermoworks is king of wired setups, and I can't wait for Thermoworks and ThermoPro to release wifi wireless probes.

[@kaos94591]

I agree I’ve had two mentees and the both broke. Also customer service was terrible.

[@rickwischer1318]

The only advantage I can see of the Meater over Typhur is the ambient temperature limit. That said, the Typhur upper limit 572℉. I can't think of anything I'd cook that's going that high.

[@midegola5623]

Searing a steak on the grill can exceed that
