FAQ: Giant Grill GaugeUpdated 7 months ago
What's included?
Includes:
- Giant Grill Gauge display
- Heat Shield or Heat Deflector mount
- Sensor tube (with M4 threading)
- 1/4-20 threaded mounting tube with washer and wingnut
- M4 wing nut and washer
- 2 CR2450 batteries (85 °C rated)
How easy it to set up the Giant Grill Gauge?
The setup is straightforward. Attach the mount to your grill where your old gauge was, then secure it with the wingnut.
The Giant Grill Gauge display snaps onto the mount magnetically. Once attached, all you have to do is turn it on.
Connect it to your Wi-Fi network easily using the Combustion app.
Will the Giant Grill Gauge fit my grill?
The Giant Grill Gauge is compatible with most grills and smokers, including popular brands like Big Green Egg, Traeger, Weber, and more.
If in doubt, read on:
- You'll need a clear, circular area of 4.5 inches in diameter where the display can sit
- You'll need a center pass-through hole for the sensor tube
Attachment Methods: - Standard: 1/4-20 threaded tube with wing-nut (preferred)
- Alternative: M4-threaded sensor tube with matching wingnut
In some cases, mounting the Giant Grill Gauge may require a hole to be drilled, or an adjustment to be made to an existing hole.
We absolutely do not recommend drilling a hole (or adjusting the size of the hole) on a ceramic grill.
Can it handle multiple Predictive Thermometers?
The Giant Grill Gauge can manage up to 4 Predictive Thermometers simultaneously.
It connects to them via Bluetooth and then extends their range using its WiFi connection.
This allows you to view data from all connected thermometers from anywhere with an internet connection.
What’s the timeline for the Giant Grill Gauge? When can we start grilling with it?!
Early access units will go to our auction winners in December 2024; their input is crucial while we fine-tune the firmware and app features.
Production units will ship strictly in the order received, first come, first served, starting in late January 2025.
Your order will include an estimated ship date based on when you ordered. (This shows during checkout and also appears on your order confirmation email.)
What is warranty and customer support like?
We stand behind our products with a 2-year warranty.
Our full-time support team is always ready to help.
But don't be surprised if you hear from our designers, engineers, or even our founder Chris. We're all passionate about our products and eager to help you get the most out of them.
There'll for sure be ample discussion about the Giant Grill Gauge on our subreddit.
Why aren't the batteries rechargeable?
The Giant Grill Gauge is designed for extreme outdoor conditions.
Rechargeable lithium polymer batteries can be compromised at temperatures above 149°F (65°C), which the Gauge may exceed on very hot, sunny days.
Because of that we use high-capacity coin cell batteries that can withstand extreme temperatures while providing enough power for most customers to change batteries only once every year or two. This ensures reliability in all grilling conditions without sacrificing performance or convenience.
Will there be a blower for temperature control in the future?
That's a popular question! We're always cooking up new ideas.
Why isn't the Giant Grill Gauge available in black?
Heat management. Black absorbs more heat, while lighter colors stay cooler. Think of it like wearing a T-shirt on a hot, sunny day.
Our Combustion yellow helps keep the gauge from overheating in direct sunlight, ensuring reliable performance.
Is this a crowdfunding campaign?
Nope, not at all. The Giant Grill Gauge is fully designed and we're gearing up for mass production.
We're offering preorders to gauge how much demand there is and to better plan our first production run.
Preordering now reserves a Giant Grill Gauge for you before they sell out.
Your preorder is risk-free and can be cancelled anytime before shipping.
