social assassin Posted April 3, 2020 Share Posted April 3, 2020 Hi, I was hoping someone could tell me how I determine if I received version 2 of the iKamand. I just received it in 3/30/20 directly from KJ and used it for the first time today. I updated the software to V 1.0.54. I experienced several problems during my attempt to smoke a pork shoulder. First, three times it over shot the temp I set in the app by an average of 11%. Then the app notified me that the pork was at my target temp of 203. I then used my Therma-Pop thermometer to confirm and found that the roast was only 185 - 187 in four different areas. Obviously way off my target. All this is why I’m concerned that they shipped me version 1 of the iKamand. I would appreciate any help you all can provide. Take Care & Stay Safe!

Pablo Hi Pablo, The version 2 does not have a metal vent slide for adjusting idol air flow, it has been replaced with a flap over the fan. This should easily tell you which version you have. Corey..

Thanks Corey for posting that...after watching @John Setzler's videos on the iKamand, I thought I got a defective unit and emailed KJ tech support.

I still have a problem...I can't get the food probe to register on the iKamand, and I keep getting the error message "probes not inserted correctly" even though they are fully inserted. As a technical writer, I have to say that the manual that comes with the unit is pretty lame. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rex Smith Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 Just bought the iKamand and it appears I have version 1. Why would this product still be available if it doesn't work like it should? I have the metal door on the flap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
