- Universal Version: This model has a base stem diameter of 7.8 mm (0.3 inches) and is compatible with most grills and smokers, including Weber, Kamado Joe (except Big Green Egg), drum, offset, and kettle grills. It’s ideal if your grill’s gauge hole is approximately 0.3 inches or larger.
- BGE Version: Designed specifically for Big Green Egg grills or other grills with smaller gauge holes like Primo Oval XL, this version has a thinner base stem diameter of 4.1 mm (0.16 inches). It’s perfect for Big Green Egg, Primo Oval XL, or similar grills with smaller ports (For the Primo XL series, since the thermometer hole diameter may vary depending on the production year, it is recommended to measure the diameter of the thermometer hole before purchasing the ProTemp S1).
- 5.5″ Special Edition: Its base stem diameter is the same as the Universal Version, at 7.8 mm (0.3 inches), but its stem length is longer, at 5.5 inches, making it suitable for devices where the thermometer is farther from the food, like the Old Country Gravity Fed smoker.
- 1.5″ Short Stem Edition: Retaining the same base stem diameter as the Universal Version, at 7.8 mm (0.3 inches). This model features a shorter 1.5-inch stem. The reduced length ensures better compatibility with grills requiring limited internal clearance, preventing interference with lid operation. It’s particularly well-suited for certain gas grills, such as the Weber Genesis and Napoleon Prestige PRO series.
Yes, sure. You can use the ProTemp S1 on a gas cooker or grill.
Yes, you can monitor up to 3 ProTemp S1 units within one app. With just a simple swipe on the screen, you can easily switch between different devices.
Good question! This is one of ProTemp S1’s standout features! You can pair a single Main Display Unit with multiple Base Units. This is especially useful for large grills or multi-zone setups, allowing you to mount Base Units in different locations while saving on additional display costs.
- For grills or smokers without a suitable vent opening, you can drill a 1.25-inch hole to attach the Breezo Fan directly, then seal any gaps with high-temperature flue tape.
- For large offset smokers, consider cutting a stainless steel plate to fit your smoker’s opening, then drill a 1.25-inch hole to attach the Breezo Fan.
- For Weber Kettle grills, a 1.25-inch hole must be drilled for installation. You can refer to our instructional video for guidance: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s_JR379c4-c&t.

Yes. This 2nd-Gen Probe can be connected to ProTemp S1 and ProTemp 2 Plus, and can also be charged via the ChefsTemp 4-in-1 Charger.
Note: It is not recommended to use it for Original ProTemp Plus, as it may not be compatible. Please do not purchase this product without ProTemp S1 or ProTemp 2 Plus!
Yes, it does. Some of our customers said as below: the S1 plus the Breezo fan is the business with the 360. I plug both intakes on the left, the front on the right and Breezo connected to the back right intake with the right exhaust closed. I put the Breezo to the back to keep everything out of my way in the front. Paired with a fire basket with tightly packed charcoal and I’ve got easily over 8 hours.
