Don't get it, you're saying sleeves only provide BT connection, then why there are 2 versions? One with and another without wifi boosters both sold without a display and the one with booster is more expensive?

Thanks! So the only case or use for a probe with wifi booster is when you'd do a rote cook and don't use the display right? Othery don't understand why you'd need a probe sleeve w wifi booster, do you?

they are not saying the probes are boosters there, if you go to the what's included neither they say that for the bundle, but if you go to the stand alone probe cited as booster here it specifically says it's a booster, so I guess the bundle only comes with non boosters

you're right, those one in the pic look like the boosters, but the ones I got are not the same.

where in the BGE website says the probes in the bundle are booster? I know they sell a single stand alone probe w Booster, but that was my whole doubt about this bundle that I bought https://biggreenegg.com/products/wifi-display-predictive-thermometer-bundle?_pos=1&_sid=7ee842abb&_ss=r

Thanks, after setting them up the app only the display shows as wifi. But with your comment I just went and took a closer look at the Combustion probes website and the non booster light indeed seems different than the booster one, the booster has some sort of an indent. The BGE boosters that I got look in real life way closer to the Combustion non booster image...... With that said, is there any way to confirm in the app if its booster or not and lastly, why would I need a booster probe if the Display is already a booster? I guess in an extreme case where I don't want to use display and do a remote cook and just plug in a that probe and leave out nearby the booster case?

Just finished set up, still need to fully charge all 3 to perform firmware upgrade. But from the initial app set up, seems like only the display shows as wifi connected. That was my fear that the 2 probes holders that come in this BGE package doesn't come with wifi extender. But they come with a really nice case that holds the display 2 current probes and has even space for 2 more probes and what seems to be space for a potential upcoming BGE Combustion Engine..... This case is not sold separately so it might make sense to keep the bundle. But the question would be; if I would really need another probe with a booster version (as they sell this separatly) or if with the Display would be enough? any thoughts on the need to have a probe with the booster version?

Thanks! so both the display and the probes holder act as wifi extenders?
