I could not find one for the life of me at first...everyone was out of stock and then I found the ET-73 at www.rivercountry101.com and not only did they have this unit but they have everything you need for grilling/smoking, including the dial thermometers for mounting to your grill/smoker. Wonderful place, had my order within 2 days of purchase!! This is the best unit I have ever owned, I will no longer ever start my grill up again without it.

The company has a line in the warranty that says the probes will be replaced for free if the fail. In talking to employees the person I talked to was rude as well as the supervisor I requested to talk with. This has been the only complaint I have other then the on/off switch breaking as others have described as well. Only problem I have had is in replacing the probes.

The single and double thermometer's are both sold out everywhere and I can't find one! Any help would be much appreciated for this rookie griller trying to get a step ahead.

I enjoy your site very much. One thing I want to CAUTION all probe thermometer users is this: Keep the probe away from high heat and flames! If the probe gets exposed to high heat or flames, it will damage the probe, rendering it useless. The only probe thermometer I know of that will withstand 600 degree F temps is the Accu-Rite probe thermometer. This is all based on my personal experience. If you're doing competition cooking, you might even want to purchase one or two extra probes for back-up in the field. Keep on Smokin! Mr BBQ, KXL NewsRadio 750,Portland,OR. Greetings from Oregon!
