FireBoard 2 Drive Packages

With Fireboard 2 Drive enjoy Wi-Fi and fan control for optimal temperature management.

What Comes with the Fireboard Drive 2, FBX2D:

FireBoard FBX2D Temperature Unit, USB-C PD Charger, Ambient Probe, 2 Food Probes, Grill Clip, Quick Start Guide.

Now you have the ability to monitor grill temperature and food temperature. To control grill temperature, you'll need to add the fan, see below.

How the Fireboard 2 Drive works:

Typically, you stick one probe in the meat and clip another probe on the cooking grid. Connect the probes to the FBX2D Unit via one of six ports. During the cook, the FBX2D uses the probes to monitor and record temperatures.

In a nutshell, using the wireless features, the FBX2D is your "eyes" on the cook when you are away from the grill. Note, this unit only monitors and records temperature. It does not control the pit temperature. To have control over the pit, the FBX2D needs the Blower/Fan.

Add Optional 20 CFM FireBoard Blower/Fan:

You'll need this if you want control and maintain the grill temperature electronically. The FireBoard blower mounts to the lower vent. It connects via cable to the FireBoard FBX2D Unit and when initiated blows air into the grill.

 Built-in sliding damper to fine tune airflow.......we love this feature, as it allows us to have top and bottom control over airflow!

What's in the Blower/Fan Box: Variable Speed 20 CFM Blower, Small/Medium Adapter Plate: 2.75 x 1.97″ (70 x 50mm), Large/XL Adapter Plate: 3.43 x 3.03″ (87 x 77mm)

Why not just include the blower fan with the Drive 2? FireBoard gives you the option to start off monitoring pit and meat temp(s). Then later, if you feel the need to control the pit temperature, you can add the Blower/Fan.

Add Optional Fireboard 2 Drive Base:

Ideal way to get you FireBoard 2 up and off the table.  Also a great way to add stability, so when you tug and move the probes around in the grill, the Fireboard Unit does not slide around.

Built-in magnets allow this FireBoard 2 series Base to mount on most metal surfaces. A non-slip bottom also lets the base firmly rest on a flat surface. The base provides easy screen viewing and port access. Compatible with the FBX2, FBX2D, and FBX2K.

To avoid heat damage, base should not be attached to grill lid or body.

Keep Extra Probes Handy:

For all electronic controllers, the pit and food probes are considered consumables. Simply, they have a limited life span due to the abuse they receive. The probes get bent every which way, are subjective to excessive temperatures/flames and get covered in smoke and greasy drippings. We highly recommend keeping an extra set of each handy. Last thing you want to find when starting an early morning cook is a bad probe. Trust us on this one!

 Just about every month, we have a customer tell us they lost a cook because they did not have a fan controller and now want to buy one. We've been controlling our long cooks for almost 20 years. It's an easy way to provide peace of mind and do a quick check from just about anywhere. We highly recommend adding the Blower/Fan unit and extra probes.

What to skip with Fireboard 2 Drive, FBX2D:

You don't need the FireBoard Drive Cable, The FBX2D includes the cable technology. It's basically the FireBoard 2 and Drive Cable rolled into one unit - newest technology.
