Re: Build Your Own BBQ Controller (w/Wifi) Lookin' good, man! Wow, look at the size of that LCD. I bet you can put all sorts of information on there.

Re: Build Your Own BBQ Controller (w/Wifi) Hey! I found this thread Googling for other Arduino-based BBQ controllers. I too have built one with WiFi called HeaterMeter. There used to be a WiFi card called a WiShield that I used but the company went out of business. You can build your own replacement but it would require surface mount components. I found that the standard Arduino with all the code needed to hold a TCP stack and a basic web server took up way too much space to use the Arduino PROGMEM to store the web page served. To get around that I used a Atmel dataflash chip and served from there. The chip 2MB but I used about 20k of it. I thought I'd link the thread, you might want to steal some ideas from it: http://tvwbb.com/eve/forums/a/tpc/f/927 ... 5341028906 That was good but there wasn't enough storage space or horsepower to make graphs, and hell you gotta have graphs right? Now I'm working with another forum member to use an old Linksys WRT54GL as a host system with the Arduino connected internally in a project called LinkMeter. http://tvwbb.com/eve/forums/a/tpc/f/927 ... 7691098906 And of course a screenshot in operation. Everything comes from AJAX data pulls, the graph and readouts update every few seconds. Good luck with your project, I might steal some ideas from you myself
