Title: transmit distance almost defeats purpose of being remote
Product review: I think this type of product is essential for smoking. The basic concept and features are great and work well. Setting the temps can be a pain because of the 1 degree increment "up only" where you have to cycle all the way through is a pain.Most importantly, I have a problem getting the receiver to sinc sometimes and loses it sometimes, and it's only sitting 15' away in the kitchen with line of sight to the smoker. I need to work at least in next room or it defeats the purpose of being remote. Also having to remove the battery door for the power switch on the transmitter is just plain dumb. You have to remove the bracket clip, remove the door, just to turn on. With the little plastic ears that clamp on the bracket clip, this will break in short time.product seems overpriced for these issues.
