Thermomètre à viande sans fil TempPro TempSpike XR TP863B — Portée RF de 600 m, 2 sondes sans fil

Works as intended and good value for the money if you catch the on sale. Simple design but enough options to cater to your own cooking style. I really enjoy the ambient (cooker) temp that it has on each temp spike. It really helps dial in a piece of meat if you’re smoking.

This is actually a nice meat thermometer. Appears to be made well. The individual probes for two meats at one cooking is pretty nice.

I am late to the party, but this has been a game changer for me grilling. I have become cynical about "how to measure the doneness of beef" - I gone with poking the beef with a finger, looking at the juice coming out, and used all sorts of thermometers that gave wildly different temperature readings - and finally I have something that just works. One small gripe, that is probably just me still figuring out how the whole thing works - but the "inside grill" temperature measurement is normally a good 50-60 degrees (F°) lower than what the main grill thermometer reads. It makes sense to me that the top of the grill covering (on a Kamodo style grill) would have the hottest reading since that is where the hottest air would congregate, but that seems to be a very large difference in a small grill. In the oven, the temp read on the probe (for the "inside oven" temperature) is also a little lower, but only by 10 degrees or so.I have had zero problems with the main unit being able to read the probes as I carry it around. It is easy to "program" for both probes - I like to use slightly different temperatures than the "official" values baked into the unit itself (ex: I use 185°F for Medium Rare on a large steak rather than the default 190°F) and I use 205° for a baked potato which isn't in the unit at all and it is very simple (with 2 min of practice) to get the right settings. I fully charged the main unit (and hence each probe) and have not had to re-charge after 12+ hours of use. Really love the ability to measure the grill/oven temperature at the same time I am measuring the interior temperature of whatever I am cooking (which is a pretty default ability with in-grill probes these days, but still love it!).Trying to think of some negatives to make this a more balanced review, but really the only thing that comes to mind isn't the probe's fault at all: if the probe reads 400°F that is because *it* is 400°F - and probably not a good idea to try to pull out with your bare hands no matter how fast and tough you are sure your hands are.... Only once have I wished I had a third or fourth probe - so 2 probes seems to work just great.

Battery lasts forever, works flawlessly! Everything from the built-in, temp alarms, and heat resistance performs amazingly! The custom setting persists (even after running the battery dies). Stands up to the heat of a broiler on high too. Charged it once, have since made brisket a few times, couple ribs, and a few chickens.Overall about 20 hours & batteries only half drained. Smoker in the backyard, walked through my house, across the street to get mail and unit still never lost connection from the probes.

Great so far really useful.

I have tried several Meat Thermometers over the 10 years and was not pleased with their reliability and durability. They were all wired thermometers and they have some great features like a smartphone app that indicated the meat’s internal temperature and alarm when the meat reached the proper temperature. However, they were tempermental - you could not allow the wires to touch anything in the BBQ grill or Oven, not get the ambient temperature over 300-400 F degrees, plus you could clean/wash the wires with any water. There were not fun to store and keep in good working condition. However, at the time they were worth the hassle. Finally I found the TempSpike XR totally Wireless Meat Thermometer that solved all these problems. So far, it has been very reliable, durable and has temperature controls with alarms to both internal and ambient temperatures. It has Two Probes, each of which can be set for separate temperatures which can be very useful for cooking meats with different thickness or two different meats be cooked at the same time. The base unit is very compact, portable with a Kick stand when need and a back lite display to see in the dark. I love that it has a strong magnetic on the back so you can attach it to the refrigerator, which is very handy. The one complaint I have is the directions could be much better on how to program the temperatures. Although, the base unit comes with several pre-programmed meat temperatures, since I live at high altitudes those temperatures do not cook accurately for me. To address this the TempSpike XR offers a separate Program feature but it isn’t very clear how to use this. So I called their Customer Support team and was able to figure it our and now I am very happy with how that feature works. I suggested they update their YouTube with better and easy to understand instructions and they agreed and will be updating that video instruction YouTube.. I am also very impressed they actually have a phone number and people who answer that are well trained and very helpful - most companies today only provide on-line FAQ’a or self help, so I was delighted to know they invest in live customer care professionals to answer questions. Surprisingly, the TempSpike XR is very well priced and affordable - it is no more expensive the wired meat thermometers I didn’t care to use. I highly recommend the TempSpike XR to anyone who cares about cooking their meats to the proper temperature they want - for me I can now not have to guess or watch over closely how to cook a RibEye steak to my liking and impress my guests with how well it was grilled.
