Great bit of kit. The Wi-Fi interface allows great control and monitoring of ambient temperature.

The GOOD:Bought this twice. Once for a fully automated small bread prooving room and once for keeping the greenhouse plants alive when the temperature drops, mostly during night. The bread stuff is a bit more complicated (up to the user how much control is needed) but all can be done using your phone, creating daily or non-daily cycles for anything. The app could be better and more user-friendly but for this price it is more than the best value ever to be found! You can outright build sophisticated temperature (and with another device also humidity) controlled rooms for less than 10% of the price of commercial pre-built purpose rooms. Used for home beer brewing as well, however, they now have a specific type of this device for that, however, this can do the same. All in all, if you are into automation, if you are a control freak, if you are not happy with other controllers and their limited settings or bad cooling differentials, if you want cycles and custom programmes, this is your device! I don’t work for Inkbird but sometimes I wish I did as their products are insanely good.THE BAD:Keep spares of the humidity and temperature sensors and probes as they are not very long lasting. The temp probe on this is better but can still fail. Inkbird’s humidity sensors break far too easily but that’s not relevant to this exact product so I wouldn’t knock off a star, however, working with heaters and coolers with the probe failing can be disastrous, so it was worth to mention.The wifi only supports 2.4G and it always needs a strong or upper medium signal. The antenna built inside is just poor. You need to have your wifi closer. My phone will have a good medium signal where this device will fail to connect.Overall 5 stars for the insane versatility and quality of the product with the additional automation capability. Seems somewhat water resistant, too. Never had issues with it in a 100% RH environment. Nothing comes even close for a much higher price.

Made all the difference to my tortoise enclosure as they are now outside permanently. This enables me to check the temperature on my mobile and alter if necessary

I’m using this as a temperature controller for my homebrewing system and it works like a charm.It performs perfectly, turning on/off my heating element to keep a constant temperature when mashing grain.I set the inkbird to my target temp and then step away to do other things and dont have to worry about overshooting the strike temp. Then when mashed in I can be confident that the temperature is going to be constant throughout the mash, unlike before where I would lose ~10c in a 60 minute mash.The app is intuitive to use and pairing the device took literally 30 seconds. I also love being able to set the desired temp and various settings via the app instead of fiddling with the device itself and as a bonus I can monitor the temps from anywhere. I’d say the app functionality definitely makes it worth the extra over the base ITC-308.The temp is accurate right out of the box when i tested against two other temperature probes I have. it looks like there is a calibration mode in the app too if needed.For those wondering (as I was), this product works with 2.4kw Heating elements. At the time I bought the product, the description stated 2200w max but I see it has since changed to state 240v / 2400w compatibility.

Bought 2 of these one for use in my caravan to control background heater over the winter months when in storage at home and the other to control tube heaters fitted in the base of my hot tub to prevent frost damage when it is empty over the winter months, they work well and can view temperature and adjust the temperature any time from my phone. It also show’s records of the past few days temperature within the units. It’s worth remembering that they will work independently but if you won’t to work them remotely from your phone they do need to hook up to your WiFi. I have a outdoor extender for caravan/hot tub.

Very good quality, keeping my fermenter to the correct temperature, saving a complete brew

I bough this to help with brewing.I brew in a fridge set quite high, and likewise use one that’s really cold. This inkbird both enables me to easily maintain my chosen temp, and to compensate for inaccurate fridge thermostats.What I mean by that is the analogue fridge 1-5 dial works fine at a set temp but only as long as the ambient temp stays the same. If it cools down, so does the fridge, if it warms up, the fridge does too. With the Inkbird that doesn’t matter.. it stays at the right temp.This is even better for the brewing fridge, as though set to ~18 degress it quite happily chills down to 10. Far below what I need, again Inkbird to the rescue as it cuts off the fridge and kicks in the heating if that occurs.This means it’s literally fire and forget. I can set it up and let it manage it, rather than me keep faffing. And this version with wifi means I can keep a closer eye on how it’s doing, and change any parameters as needed.

If you have any temperature related needs (heating and cooling) then this is what you’re looking for.Great app, great physical product.Yes it’s a pretty penny and yes wifi isn’t reeeeeeally needed. But it works so well out of the box and as we’re all getting lazy, why not have wifi?
