ChefsTemp ProTemp S1 smart grill gauge — Universal or BGE fit, Wi‑Fi & Bluetooth hub with Platinum sensor accuracy

The ChefsTemp ProTemp S1 is a direct-replacement smart grill gauge that converts most charcoal and offset cookers into Wi‑Fi/Bluetooth temperature-monitoring hubs for precise pit and meat control.

The ProTemp S1 was designed to replace a traditional dial gauge with a connected, high-precision hub. It reads ambient grill temperatures with a Platinum sensor for far greater accuracy than analog gauges, supports wireless meat probes, and streams temps to your phone or smartwatch so you can leave the grill without losing control.

How does the ProTemp S1 fit my grill and replace the old dial gauge?

The S1 is offered in two fit options to match common lid gauge cutouts: a universal version for most grills and smokers, and a dedicated Big Green Egg (BGE) model for BGE and Primo XL Oval. Installation is a simple swap of your old dial gauge; the unit mounts where your existing gauge sat and secures with standard hardware.

• Universal model fits Kamado, Weber Kettle, offset smokers, and many others
• BGE-specific version fits Big Green Egg and Primo XL Oval grills
• Designed to replace most 2–2.5" gauge openings (check specs before purchasing)
• Quick swap installation—no complex retrofitting required

Can I monitor temperatures away from the grill and get alerts?

Yes—the S1 connects via both Wi‑Fi and Bluetooth so you can watch ambient pit temps and receive notifications on your phone or watch in real time. Wi‑Fi enables remote monitoring from anywhere, while Bluetooth offers extended battery life for nearby use.

• Real-time alerts for target temps and thresholds
• Use Wi‑Fi to monitor remotely, Bluetooth for local, low‑power tracking
• Works with the ChefsTemp app to display multiple devices and probes
• Compatible with smartwatches for glanceable status updates

Which probes and accessories can I use with the S1?

The S1 supports up to four wireless ProTemp probes so you can track internal meat temps and the cooking chamber simultaneously (probes sold separately). It also pairs with the optional ChefsTemp Breezo Fan to automate airflow and stabilize set temperatures.

• Up to 4 wireless meat probes supported at once
• Works with the ChefsTemp Breezo Fan for automated air control
• Probes and fan sold separately—mix and match as needed
• Control multiple S1 hubs from a single app screen for multi‑grill setups

How durable is the S1 and how long does the battery last?

The S1 houses a rechargeable battery sized for long sessions: up to about 40 hours on Wi‑Fi and significantly more using Bluetooth only. The main unit has an IP54 rating to withstand splashes or light rain; for heavy rain or snow use, cover the unit or remove it and store indoors.

• Battery: up to ~40 hours (Wi‑Fi) and ~300 hours (Bluetooth only)
• Recharge with a 5V 2A DC adapter (do not use >20W or charge while in use)
• IP54 weather resistance—use a protective cover in heavy weather
• Base is fully water‑resistant; main unit splash‑resistant only

Who is this for: The ProTemp S1 is aimed at backyard pitmasters and weekend grillers who want a simple, clean upgrade from an analog gauge to a connected temperature hub. It suits owners of kamado grills, Weber kettles, smokers, or any cook who needs accurate pit control, wireless probe support, and remote monitoring without complicated wiring. If you value precise temperatures, multi‑device control, and the option to automate airflow with the Breezo Fan, the S1 brings professional‑level monitoring to everyday grilling.
