Does not display temperature on pager unit, October 19, 2009
This review is from: ACU-RITE 03166 Wireless BBQ Thermometer with Remote Pager
Product documentation on their web site shows pager unit displaying temperature - the whole reason I wanted a wireless thermometer. A call to Acurite tech support confirmed that the unit does NOT display temperature on the pager unit. The rep said that another company holds the patent on remote display of temperature. The rep also said they are in the process of changing the documentation. Fortunately the display is large, so I may be able to see the temperature of the meat in my outdoor grill from inside. I'm told that the temperature alarm does work.

This review is from: ACU-RITE 03166 Wireless BBQ Thermometer with Remote Pager
The product saved me from burning great cuts of meet a number of times over the past year so it is better than nothing, but thne unit failed within a year - constantly beeping telling me that the meat was Overcooked and no longer registering tempaerature just showing Hi so it is now unuseable - wish the remote unit had more functionality similar to the base unit which hard wired to the probe.
