Your grill is so freaking clean!! Thanks for the vid.

[telco_dino]

Thank you for doing this video. After watching your video numerous times, I am following your instructions to upgrade my 1050. I am also doing Klotesmod rear vent and front shelf extension, as well as LSS hopper lid liner.
I found a way to mount the Fireboard 2 Pro ambient probe without taking it apart and keeping it movable. You have to destroy the MB oem ambient probe to salvage the small rectangular mounting plate. Once you have it, cut a small slit on the side next to the hole where the probe used to be. The slit only has to be large enough to slide the wire of the Fireboard through. After that you can pull the probe as you demonstrated to mount on the small plate
and mount the small pate to the bracket.

I must say I'm am not happy I found this video. See, I'm poor. I can't be spending an extra $300 on a brain for an already $799 grill. But I'm going to. Lol. You're the one that's going to have to live with it. 😊

Thanks buddy, I just ordered my firebird and will be doing the conversion over the weekend. I hope it goes as smooth as yours seemed. Thx again for the video!

Awesome video I just got one today and it’s so sweet that you can set bbq temp vs meat temp and alerts for each channel or bbq temp and meat temp.

Great Video Thank You. When needed I will be getting and installing the Fireboard Pro 2

[SpazzzzzTV]

ty for this video, def the set up i'm going for. I think i've about covered all my mods.

Love my FireBoard. Finally looked at the predictive analysis the other night. Nice feature.

You installed the FireBoard into the unit, why would you not install that power pack into as well.

That is one thing I am not a big fan off using my Weber Summit Charcoal Grilling Center/ Kamado with table is having all the probe wires feeding through the top vents, and then sometimes you open the lid, it’s just too messy, or the wires aren’t long enough with my setup. That being said, if I go to a family cook elsewhere, I bring my FireBoard and probes with me, and just take over.

The blower fir my non-pellet grill is absolutely essential for your long cooks. You are no more a hero hanging outside overnight with the cooker, than you are inside the house looking at all that is going on with your phone.

What is the temperature gauge on the front of the grill lid? I noticed its no longer stock.

Good vid. Helped me select a master built. Thanks!

[tonytighttucker]

Where did you get that grill light on the handle???

[lukecashmore]

I want to use mains power. Are there any controllers that allow for mains function to replace broken original controller ?

[tank]

Where did you get that ambient probe with the alligator clip

[YouDownWithJPD]

Great video! Do you have a link for the new ambient probe? Thanks!

[spike]

Why didn't you run channel 3 as ambient? Wouldn't you want the closest socket close to the grill?

[jeremythompson]

Nice video. Are you able to get the meat probes through the hole in the side of the body ok?

[tonytighttucker]

How is the ambient probe holding up in the stock location on Masterbuilt Grill??

[davidalford]

So why brand light on handle did you use it looks like a Webber??

[mikeatlincoln]

I would like your thoughts on temp control with the Fireboard 2 mod. I tested the setup before mounting the controller and ambient probe. Using the alligator clip I attached the ambient probe the the bracket where the MB probe was installed. Temps looks very good, including the lid thermometer. After the permanent install was done I ran a spatchcked chicken on the middle rack. It was a very windy and cold day. Temp set to 275 and I expected the lid temp to be in that ballpark. It was running 50 deg high. Today I am smoking some vegs for salsa at 225. I placed probe 2 on the ambient bracket and probe 3 in the middle of the chamber. Here is what I am seeing. Ambient = 225, Probe 1 = 215, Probe 3 = 239. I am thinking the ambient bracket is too cold due the close contact with the side of the chamber. Probe 2 is in direct contact with the bracket while the ambient Probe 1 has an air gap. I am thinking of adding some insulation between the bracket and the side of the chamber to reduce the effect of outside temps. Any thoughts on all of this?

What is on your handle?? I've seen that on a few other grills...thanks!!
