Thermapen One, the new champ?

[Uncle Bob]

So now we know what replaces the very well respected Mk4: Introducing Thermapen® ONE - YouTube

[Donw]

1 second read = $105.00 vs 2-3 second read = $70.00? Am I really in that much of a hurry?🤔

[Murdy]

JakeT 100% faster and only 50% more expensive!

[jfmorris]

Exactly why I never rushed to replace my "classic" Thermapen when the Mark IV came out.

[JakeT]

Murdy they should hire you for their marketing campaign!

[Spacecase]

Meh. I thought it would be a total redesign or something novel. So I was holding off picking up one of the discounted Mk4s. Not anymore. I just ordered a "slow" Mk4 for $69.

[scottranda]

I applaud them for innovating and making it better (even though it was already a superior product)! Nothing wrong with that!

[Potkettleblack]

Dammit...

I want one.

Jerks.

[Attjack]

Same.

[bbqLuv]

Me too

[Spinaker]

Always improving things. I like it. Plus, with the new model........it should make the MK4 cheaper. Win, win.

[Uncle Bob]

Their "clearance" language in the current Mk 4 ads implies they would discontinue that model. Like you I think they should keep it as a second tier option for those who resist the three digit price of the new model, but still want the ergonomic combination of the Mk 4 with the compromise on speed, warrantee options.

[Spinaker]

Yeah, they did that with the Gen one Thermapen, it was around for a long time after the MK4 was released. Uncle Bob

[glitchy]

If I'm recalling what I read correctly, Thermoworks has said the MK4 is going away but the Thermapen Classic is staying as the entry or basic model.

[glitchy]

Every second counts, right? Not that I cannot spare a few seconds and don't waste them all the time, but I do want one of these. Temping several burgers or steaks on a pellet grill adds up quick in heat loss that has to be recovered.

[prepperjack]

The advantage to me is when temping very large cuts where you can't be sure that you're in the optimal spot. Having such a quick response time means that I can put the probe in deeper than I need to and then slowly pull it out to get the temps through the range.

[BBQPhil]

I think the ability to move it around and instantly measure the temp in a range of areas is more useful than getting the results of a fixed position in a second. This thermometer is taking away the slow from slow cooking.

[Attjack]

I like using the thermometer to physically pull stuff off the grill. For instance, if you have 10-30 pieces of chicken on the grill you can temp each one and pull it off with the thermometer. One second is going to be great.

[Michael_in_TX]

One interesting thing is that this shows that the metal probe can "react" to heat energy quick enough that continuous one-second readings can be made.

[Hulagn1971]

Love it.

[Attjack]

I still think they should make an instant-read and leave in combo. There would be at least 2 probe ports so that you can have a probe in the meat and a probe for the pit and still be able to use it as an instant-read thermometer.

[Jerod Broussard]

Only $97 if you order 5+

[Huskee]

I wanted WiFi. I wanted to put it in my roast, then quickly run inside to my desk and see the temp on my laptop. I am disappointed that I cannot do this.

[STEbbq]

A lengthy and hand written letter.

[Dr. Pepper]

Huskee Or, run down to your local internet cafe, rent a machine, log-in, and then check the temp. That way you can grill and still meet interesting people, at the same time.

[prepperjack]

Huskee that’s the "Pro" version due out in time for Christmas

[IdahoJim]

I think I need one. My old Thermopop is just sooo sloooow

[ecowper]

Well, bought a second Mk IV I$70. So, I actually like this new thing that I'm never going to buy since I got a Mk IV for such a great price.
