Just a few left. Flameboss 200 control unit. $199.00 Not a bad deal.Probes are $19.95 each .If you have have, Use BBQ Guru Fan or an Auber fan will work upside down so damper stays open . For $250 you can have a Flameboss 200 .

    Thanks for the link. Any idea how water resistant these are? I am assuming that the probe wires can handle rain, but how about the fan?

    Remember that control unit does NOT include pit probe, meat probe, or fan.  The universal 200 kit for $249 includes those, but with a round fan connection. You could mod a door for your egg with a pipe nipple, and would be up and running pretty cheap.

    As far as waterproof, I cover my controller with a plastic container when it rains.  My fan is pretty much shielded due to how I built my table.

    I definitely would use the Flameboss fan, as it's designed to run at vaious speeds that the controller outputs.

    I have had a Auber control for about 5 years . I would put control in a zip lock bag if it rained and fashioned a rain shield for the motor from a small aluminum tray and a small bungee ,nothing fancy but it works . Function over form ,field expediency at home.
