So the first 2 slides show the same model number in the listings 14-BW (but with a 20 dollar difference) – the third choice has a slightly different model 14-B5 and is 40 bucks less than the highest priced 14-BW.
the listings show the same features and specs, does anybody know the difference between the highest and lowest priced models? Ironically all 3 are sold from the inkbird store, seems kind of shady there are different prices for the same model listed on Amazon
Also Im not 100% sold on inkbird, just weighing all my options. I know lots of folks in this forum swear by thermoworks, I do own a thermoworks instant read (based on recs here) but my 6 dollar instant read pen I had for a few years is within .5-1 degree at both high and low range of my 70 dollar thermoworks.

Pretty much every smart, expensive techy thing I’ve purchased has failed in an unreasonably short amount of time. Then I look back on it and think “why do I need this fancy expensive thing if I already have something that does this, just not over the internet?”
The answer is I don’t and my dumb product works better for longer and is cheaper.
Are they cool? Sure. Is it practical? Not really. Putting an electronic device in a box that can get up to 500+ degrees probably isn’t going to last a super long time.
You can just get a thermpro with 4 wired probes and a remote station which also connects to Bluetooth that will last forever for half of what you would pay for a single wireless probe that will last a season or two.
Don’t bother. I went through two brands before realizing – it’s not worth it. Get a wired one or just poke it with an instant read if you’re that curious. These things aren’t worth it
