Nice color on the ribs okie!!! I think I will install one on my Traeger 07E or I may get one from Sawmill grills for $44. With it I would have to build or buy an enclosure. Don
I did find this link to sawtooth which I think is about the same PID as the Blaz n grill.

This one is about $175 though.
Okie this is the one I looked at for $44 and didn't look close enough. it is not digital. What did you pay for yours?
I wrote Blazn Grill but hey did not give me a price. Don
Don I don't think that Blazn would endorse using this controller for a Traeger because it is designed and programmed to work with their grill specifically. So if you asked them if it will work on your Traeger I understand why they did not respond. I am sure they like the fact that people will buy this controller to use with their Traegers because that equals more revenue but they probably don't want to be held liable in any way if something happens.
The Blazn controller is plug and play with a Traeger because the wiring and connectors are both the same. If you go with a controller that is for a pellet grill that does not use a Ortech controller then wiring modifications will be required.
Even though the programming profile and parameters for the Blazn controller are for a Blazn grill the controller is a PID and adapts instantly to any changes it detects. In other words it is smart and learns your cooker and the way it reacts. As long as the initial parameters are close for normal operation the PID takes over from there.
I actually know how to get into the parameter settings on that controller. I found out by accident. But I don't know what most of the settings are for. I know the high and low temp limit settings. These settings are different for different models if that controller and are determined by the manufacturer of the pellet grill.
This controller looks like a nice option for Traeger owners!
