Bucky96 Posted November 7, 2020 Report Share Posted November 7, 2020 Thinking of switching to Fireboard Drive plus fan (replacing my old PartyQ + Thermoworks Smoke combo). Is there a consensus on preferred fan to use with the KK? I have a 23". Thanks for any recommendations.

Used it with the FB last night and it was awesome. Really quiet and efficient. Sent from my Pixel 3 using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rrh Posted June 17, 2021 Report Share Posted June 17, 2021 I just ordered my 32" Big Bad and am looking or accessories, so excuse my ignorance... BBQ Guru offers a WIFI enabled setup for the KK's. https://bbqguru.com/storenav/gurucookerguide?DeviceModelId=104&kitId=489 Is the FireBoard a better setup?

BOC Posted June 17, 2021 Report Share Posted June 17, 2021 I use a FireBoard and Pit Bull from BBQ guru when using a fan control. I have a 32” so I went with the pit bull over viper but I don’t think I needed it. The viper would have done the trick as well. It always stays within 5-10 of target temp.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rcovey Posted March 16, 2023 Report Share Posted March 16, 2023 Hi. I have been looking into this for the last week. My 23" Ultimate is being delivered tomorrow. I think that the Fireboard 2 Drive is the best choice. You don't need a separate cable to attach the fan as is required with the Fireboard 2. I originally wanted to use the Billows fan from ThermoWorks but there is an issue with connecting it to the Fireboard 2 Drive. The connection cable is different , barrel vs USB type C. I tried to find an adapter or cable to get it to connect but the power for the connecter is directional and flows the wrong direction. I have purchased Fireboards fan and I'm currently trying to get the nozzle for the fan connected. The reason I preferer the Fireboard is the app that runs the system. It is much better than any other that I've looked at. The options to set the fan max speed to a percentage from 0-100% is one thing that's great. The open lid detector and fan shut off helps prevent flair ups. The ability to set the amount of time from shut off until the fan restarts help prevent overheating. You can add pictures of you cooking sessions. There are more things, but these are the most important to me. Hope this helps in some way.

Poochie Posted March 17, 2023 Report Share Posted March 17, 2023 I also use the viper fan from BBQ Guru with my Fireboard 2. Works perfectly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
