I don't think they are very accurate, I can turn mineon, connect the two probes, and sitting on the table side by side, there is a 5 degree difference between the meat probe reading the the smoker probe reading. Not sure which is more accurate, but it appears the meat probe is closer to the actual outside temp.

There is a delay in the remote display and the display with the probes connected, I think this is due to the transmitter only transmitting once every 15-30 seconds or so.
