Thanks for a nice clear explanation. For info the Wi-fi 308 is available from Amazon UK too. I use mine for controlling my greenhouse environment, specifically a ‘hoop house’ propagator inside it.
When I got to the part where you said "Now this unit works fine if only the heating element or cooling element are plugged in...." I knew i found what i was searching for. Thank you man, god bless ya!
I was about to send this thing back because I couldn’t figure out the ridiculous wording on the instructions. Glad I found your video. Ink bird should send you some money.
This is the absolute best video on how to program these Inkbird controllers !! One gem I learned is that you can make multiple adjustments to settings in sequence and then save them all at once by holding down the set key for 3 seconds!
Havent even watched the full video and im commenting, the way you describe everyrhing in detail is excellent , no other videos of the inkbird do this , thank you
@@2guysandacoolercan we use it in our chick's brooder room or this equipment just works with refrigerator etc? Because I want to attach cooling fans with it in extreme summers and i belong to a hotter region where summers last till November. can you help
Thank you so, so, so much. I was completely lost. Using this controller for fermenting beer. Thanks to you it went from a piece of junk to a valuable asset in my beer making. Thanks again and I will sub… Ron
Hi Eric. First of all you're doing very good job with your videos. Very helpful and thank you for that. I just set up the inlbird wifi temperature controller in my small beverage center and it was working great until i changed from the app the refrigerator delay from 3 minutes to 4 and tun the the tmperature ofnthe fridge all the way to the coolest. After that whnever reaches 57°f instead of delaying for 3 or 4 minutes it's start cooling again right away until 55. My settings is exactly like yours.
Hi! How come the temperature differential are not working. Inkbird said I have to activate "normal mode". Seems like mine is in "special mode".How do I set that?
Great stuff, very useful! Mines on they way, just wanted to get a better understanding of how they work, setups and stuff before it comes…. I’ll probably be back while setting it up once it’s here. Thanks!
Great video. I'm trying to change both the heating and cooling hysteresis on the phone app of my 308. Everytime I try to change the values, it reverts back to 2deg for both. Not sure what I'm doing wrong? Cheerz
Do you know if you can schedule target temperatures? I would like my temperature at 25 degrees Celsius during the day and 21 degrees Celsius at night. Having trouble with the scheduling function.
Hi, Would you kindly answer this question please before I purchase an Inkbird ITC-308. I have a Klarstein Thermo electric humidor to store my cigars. It is cooling only and does not have an heating element. The temp range for cooling is 12 to 18 degrees centigrade, that is the only settings on its digital thermostat. I need it to not start cooling until the internal temp reaches 21c. I have a small heat pad in there to get the temp up to 21c but have to have the humidor unplugged otherwise the cooling kicks in and takes it back to 18c. My question is will your Inkbird product override the internal thermostat of my humidor and not allow the cooling fans to kick in unless the temp exceeds 21c. Will the unit still work and kick in when the temp exceeds 21c even though it was set at the factory to only have an adjustment on its digital thermostat of 12 to 18c. I can say that the digital readout does show if for example I have deliberately allowed the unit to get to 25c by unplugging the unit and turning up the heat pad, then plugging the unit in and it shows the 25c on the readout and then the cooling kicks and takes it back to 18C. Very frustrating I just want a temp of 21c constant by leaving my heat pad on and the unit kicking in and cooling back to 21c when it exceeds this temp. Really hopeing your product can help and looking forward to your reply.
Great questions. For starters, this isn't my unit. I just use it. It will work for your application. You would basically keep the same set up you have currently. Plug the heating pad into the "heating" port and the humidor into the "cooling" port. The controller will then take over the functions. Set it to whatever temp you want and that's where it will stay.
Hi - I think I have set mine up correctly however the unit indicates its always either heating or cooling, this is when I have set heat differential parameters. for example if I have the heat diff set for 5degrees higher or lower than 55 degrees, so between 50 degrees and 60 degrees the unit should neither be heating or cooling however both on the device and on the app at say 56 degrees it indicates its cooling and at 53 degrees its heating. is this normal? I would expect the unit to be off neither heating or cooling because its within the differential parameters? TIA
That is correct. If you have the heating diff. set to 5 then when the temp gets below 50 the heater will kick on. same for the cooling diff. when the temp gets above 60 the fridge (or whatever you have plugged into it) will kick on. Not sure why yours is kicking on at 3 degrees up or down..
Very nice. For some reason my cooling back temp doesn’t seem to work. I have it set at 10 degrees. But my cooling unit clicks on when it’s even .5 over my target.
How did you setup your configuration for your greenhouse? Heating = intake? or outtake? Cooling = outtake? or intake? I'm guessing for a growing environment for veggies and fruit growing, you might set it up in this configuration below..?? Heating = OutTake Exhaust fan (dirty air) Cooling = Intake Fan = (clean air) Ideally I'm guessing additionally you could also use InkBird Humidity WiFi Controller IHC-200wifi and have it setup in this configuration below also. Work1 = Humidy too Low = Turn on Humidifier Work 2 = Humidy too High = Turn on Dehumidifier
When connected to the wifi, will the app still work for me away from the house? Like will I get a temperature difference notification via the app If I'm out and about?
Im only using heating biy not cooling. Is there anyway i cud have it to only heat up on a certain time. Wud i be able to plug the inkbird controller into a timer.
How can I use it 4 cooling...there is some different between mine and that ink bird in the video.i tried long time u programme it on cooling but icouldnt
i just set mine up this was really helpful. but the cooling and heating lights are off. is this normal? lol ? i plugged my heat mat into heating though. i want it at 80 for my pacman frog
The cooling and heating light should come on when the parameters that you set are triggered. So if you want the temp to be 80F and you have the heater difference set at 4degrees. Then when the temp drops down to 76f the heater should come on.
It really depends on what type of cheese you are making but for most cheese you can use the settings in this video. You'll have to monitor the way your cheese cave responds to the settings and make small adjustments as each refrigerator is slightly different. Try to keep the temp at 55f and the humidity at 80%
Dear, please note that your request need two ITC-308-WIFI's to achieved. If have any problem, please feel free to contact our email support@inkbird.com
Are you aware if there is any product like this unit, but that has a clock built in? So that I can request a cooling temp for the day, and a different one for the evening ?
Hi So can u clarify if I have set to 65 with differential of say 5 degrees on either end.. it won't turn on til it hits either 60 or 70 right but then it will stay on to target temp. Is there any way to give target temperature a range? Thanks.
You are correct. In essence by setting the differentials you are giving the unit a range. so if you set the temp to 65f and you give it a 5 differential both ways. Your range become 60-70f. What this unit tries to do is provide an average. So in theory what you set it at will become the average of what the area will have..
I have bought one wifi version. And I keep getting AH ALARM THAT SOUNDS LOUD . IM FOINF HIGH AT 84 LOW AT 80 and sometimes it goes to 84 and AH alarms, I saw you presed SET TO SET ALARMS OFF, BUT HOW TO TURN IT OFF COMPLETELY. thanks for your help
Is there anyway through the app to set up an automated schedule for different times of the day… like for growing plants I want my “nighttime” temperate to be slightly cooler than when lights are on to mimick outdoor reality. I was hoping with the WiFi enabled controller this would be simple, but I cannot navigate my way through the “Tap to Run” setting or the “automation” tab… any help or advice would be much appreciated!

@@INKBIRD-official Ι have aquestion about refrigerator compressor delay. I use my temperature controller in a small beverage center and only use cooling at inkbird. I have target temperature 55°f and heating/cooling differential 2°f so 57°f until compressor go on again. Now i set the compressor delay for 3 minutes. Does that mean that the compressor will start working again in 3 minutes after i hit 57 or 3 minutes delay since it stoped at 55. When my controller reaches 55 stops .then it takes arround 8 minutes to reach 57 and then right away the compressor starts without 3 minutes delay. Also heating screen is turn on sometimes in the app while i m not using any heating source. I would love to get some clarification right here because i dont know if this is normal or something is wrong with the device. Thank you in advance.
@@evangelosmakris703 Hello, The PT compressor delay protection principle is: When the time interval between two refrigeration operation is larger than preset delay, the equipment will start refrigeration immediately; when the time interval between two refrigeration is less than preset delay, the equipment won't start refrigeration until preset delay is satisfied. For example PT=3. (Compressor Delay 3 mins) For the first time, when temperature reached TS+CD, it will turn on the cooling outlet, turn off at TS. It takes 1 min to reach TS+CD again, at this time, the cooling outlet will not turn on, it will wait 2 mins. So if you set PT=3, when it takes 8 minutes to reach 57 degrees from 55 degrees, then its delay time is reached and therefore at 57 degrees it will turn on the cooling output.
Thanks for the video, the app and instructions are very difficult to understand. After watching your video now I understand what’s going on. The app is confusing as it has scrolling numbers left and right and that’s the decimal point.

I have this hooked up for one day. It was working fine then at 3 am my wifi was lost for a few minutes and alarm was going off. Is this something that happens all the time ??
Thank you! What confusing terms this manufacturer has, the paper manual that came with it (tiny, hard to read), the online pdf manual and the iPhone app all have different terminology for the same settings? I think it started with a lab guy who no one understood what the hell he was saying, then went to one of the tech staff who tried to get it right and ended up with a professor who struggles to reach is students. WTH! What does “hysteresis” mean ??? I didn’t know I was going to need a class to set this. Oh and why on the device have PV and SV when nothing mentioned even has those letters. Had I not already known the temp of my room that first one would be just as confusing as the others. Your video makes perfect sense.
All set up and working great! Only one thing, I can’t get the wifi light to stop blinking. I did the setup in my house where the connection is strong, but out in my metal shop it’s like a Faraday cage. When I pressed the wifi button (don’t ask me why, it’s late) the APP/blinking light started and since I had no connection on my phone, the Weedbird couldn’t find anything. I tried holding in the wifi, the set, nothing it just started looking again. I check in the morning.
@@2guysandacooler It must time out eventually because I came back the next day and no blinking. It’s working great with the mini oil filled radiator I bought. These radiators don’t dry out the air like the blower types heaters do. Plus it only draws 700w.
I’ve been using that controller for over a year and never knew about the smart home connection. I can now ask Alexa how my smoker is doing! Very nice. TU What APP & revision APP are you using? Update: I was using the InkBird pro app that doesn’t have the bells and whistles. Again, TU
no matter what i set my target heat to, it won’t go above 77. its so annoying. how do i fix that? it lets me set everything then after i do f or c and hit and hold set it just goes back to 77.
Dear, may I ask did you set it up by pressing the button? If you press and hold the set button to save and exit, it also won't save the target temperature setting? If have any problem, please feel free to contact our email support@inkbird.com
I don't think you can reset it. Best option would be to uninstall the app, clear the app memory, reboot the phone, and reinstall the app. See if that works. Also are you using 2.4ghz wireless?
Dear, please note that the power range of the ITC-308WIFI is: Max. 10A, 100V ~240V AC. If have any problem, please feel free to contact our email support@inkbird.com
Hello, first I want to say that I am a big fan of youre show ( I think it is called show, or ??) love your videos about the starter cultures, but I have a question, I got a frozen bag of Starterculture BactoFlavor BFL-T03. All I can find on the net, is that it is simular to TSPX, although the flavour side of it. I want to use it, but don't know if I have to follow the same Ph en Temperatures as you tell about in that video do you know how to use that starterculture ?? it would be very helpfull. thanks and keep on the good work. greetings from Holland
Thank you! Check out this link and go to page 3 (I think). Your range is 65F-85F with 85% humidity for 36-72 hours till your pH hits 5.0-5.2. Use it exactly as T-SPX.
@@alainjanssen9393 LOL... hjemmeriet.com/da/ChrHansen/Brochures/Meat%20manual_UK.pdf It's page 30. You can read about the type of bacteria. Then on page 20 you can see what each one of the bacteria likes :)
bought this one by mistake… The aquarium version of this unit is ITC-306a. comes with two probes with suction cups. really goddamn annoying how Amazon said this version with the metal probe is also for aquariums…
Only 10AMPS folks. Don't burn your homes down and try to run high current devices. Certainly nothing like a HEATER OR REFRIGERATOR. I seriously doubt this thing will last let alone not burst into flames if used with these. I would hope it's internally fused just incase stupid happens.
@regmcguire5582 AC single phase watts to amps calculation The phase current I in amps (A) is equal to the power P in watts (W), divided by the power factor PF times the RMS voltage V in volts (V): I(A) = P(W) PF × V(V) The power factor of resistive impedance load is equal to 1. Example P = 1100W, V = 110V, PF = 1 I = 1100W 1×110V = 9.1666666667 So your device only draws (At full power ) 9.1666666667 amps which is slightly under the 10amp rating of the internal relay. I would assume there is temperature and over current protection on these. If not Please keep an eye on it. Continuous loads like some heaters or motors require wire size adjustment to factor in the added resistance from heat.

The cooling and heating light should come on when the parameters that you set are triggered. So if you want the temp to be 80F and you have the heater difference set at 4degrees. Then when the temp drops down to 76f the heater should come on.

I would love to get some clarification right here because i dont know if this is normal or something is wrong with the device.
Thank you in advance.
@@evangelosmakris703 Hello,
The PT compressor delay protection principle is:
When the time interval between two refrigeration operation is larger than preset delay, the equipment will start refrigeration immediately; when the time interval between two refrigeration is less than preset delay, the equipment won't start refrigeration until preset delay is satisfied.
For example PT=3. (Compressor Delay 3 mins)
For the first time, when temperature reached TS+CD, it will turn on the cooling outlet, turn off at TS. It takes 1 min to reach TS+CD again, at this time, the cooling outlet will not turn on, it will wait 2 mins.
So if you set PT=3, when it takes 8 minutes to reach 57 degrees from 55 degrees, then its delay time is reached and therefore at 57 degrees it will turn on the cooling output.

I think it started with a lab guy who no one understood what the hell he was saying, then went to one of the tech staff who tried to get it right and ended up with a professor who struggles to reach is students. WTH! What does “hysteresis” mean ??? I didn’t know I was going to need a class to set this.
Oh and why on the device have PV and SV when nothing mentioned even has those letters. Had I not already known the temp of my room that first one would be just as confusing as the others.
Your video makes perfect sense.
All set up and working great!
Only one thing, I can’t get the wifi light to stop blinking. I did the setup in my house where the connection is strong, but out in my metal shop it’s like a Faraday cage. When I pressed the wifi button (don’t ask me why, it’s late) the APP/blinking light started and since I had no connection on my phone, the Weedbird couldn’t find anything. I tried holding in the wifi, the set, nothing it just started looking again. I check in the morning.
interesting. Let me know what happens..
@@2guysandacooler It must time out eventually because I came back the next day and no blinking. It’s working great with the mini oil filled radiator I bought. These radiators don’t dry out the air like the blower types heaters do. Plus it only draws 700w.
@@Mr_PNW nice. That's great to know
Awesome! You just made a sell! Thanks
Cool. It's a great little unit.
What happens in a power outage? Does it reset to the entered values?
yes.
Thanks for the explanation, now i can brew some good beer 😁
Thank you for the walk thru
Thank you very helpful compared to the manual
Great info thanks for the vid!
I’ve been using that controller for over a year and never knew about the smart home connection. I can now ask Alexa how my smoker is doing! Very nice. TU What APP & revision APP are you using?
Update: I was using the InkBird pro app that doesn’t have the bells and whistles. Again, TU
For others readers its the Inkbird Smart app.
Could you talk about t a hot house with plants
no matter what i set my target heat to, it won’t go above 77. its so annoying. how do i fix that? it lets me set everything then after i do f or c and hit and hold set it just goes back to 77.
Dear, may I ask did you set it up by pressing the button? If you press and hold the set button to save and exit, it also won't save the target temperature setting? If have any problem, please feel free to contact our email support@inkbird.com
My freezer only cuts on when I plug it into the Heating port.
I don’t get it.
How do I turn off the alarm from the app?
how do i setup a different Temperature for day and night in the app?
This unit can not do that. You would need the ITC608T
How do you reset this device my phone inkbird Pro app doesn't recognize my device. Any help
I don't think you can reset it. Best option would be to uninstall the app, clear the app memory, reboot the phone, and reinstall the app. See if that works. Also are you using 2.4ghz wireless?
@@2guysandacooler Thanks I figured it out. And my house runs off 2.4ghz and 5 ghz or something like that my brother said so mine has both.
@@the6ixconstrictors424 Cool. What did you have to do to fix it?
@@2guysandacooler I deleted the inkbird app from my phone and then added the app back on my cell phone and it works now :)
How much amperage from a heater can it handle?
Dear, please note that the power range of the ITC-308WIFI is: Max. 10A, 100V ~240V AC. If have any problem, please feel free to contact our email support@inkbird.com
You did show how to connect it to your Wi-Fi SMDH
Hello,
first I want to say that I am a big fan of youre show ( I think it is called show, or ??)
love your videos about the starter cultures, but I have a question, I got a frozen bag of Starterculture BactoFlavor BFL-T03.
All I can find on the net, is that it is simular to TSPX, although the flavour side of it.
I want to use it, but don't know if I have to follow the same Ph en Temperatures as you tell about in that video
do you know how to use that starterculture ?? it would be very helpfull.
thanks and keep on the good work.
greetings from Holland
Thank you! Check out this link and go to page 3 (I think). Your range is 65F-85F with 85% humidity for 36-72 hours till your pH hits 5.0-5.2. Use it exactly as T-SPX.
@@2guysandacooler
thanks,
but which link ?
@@alainjanssen9393 LOL... hjemmeriet.com/da/ChrHansen/Brochures/Meat%20manual_UK.pdf
It's page 30. You can read about the type of bacteria. Then on page 20 you can see what each one of the bacteria likes :)
How do we turn off temperature alarm?
Set the alarms to extreme temperatures 👍
@@biblical-events Thanks!!
bought this one by mistake… The aquarium version of this unit is ITC-306a. comes with two probes with suction cups. really goddamn annoying how Amazon said this version with the metal probe is also for aquariums…
I can't get mine to change
Also good for aquariums
Yes I need this for my solomy that I'm growing🤥
The probes themselves are water proof, just not past the metal tip.
Thanks for the tip. I usually wrap mine in a plastic (sous vide) bag when I submerge it.
What about 90 f
Only 10AMPS folks. Don't burn your homes down and try to run high current devices. Certainly nothing like a HEATER OR REFRIGERATOR. I seriously doubt this thing will last let alone not burst into flames if used with these. I would hope it's internally fused just incase stupid happens.
1100 watts, so I turn a good sized oil filled heater with it. I leave th3 heater on medium, 900 watts, works great
@regmcguire5582 AC single phase watts to amps calculation
The phase current I in amps (A) is equal to the power P in watts (W), divided by the power factor PF times the RMS voltage V in volts (V):
I(A) =
P(W)
PF × V(V)
The power factor of resistive impedance load is equal to 1.
Example
P = 1100W, V = 110V, PF = 1
I =
1100W
1×110V
= 9.1666666667
So your device only draws (At full power ) 9.1666666667 amps which is slightly under the 10amp rating of the internal relay. I would assume there is temperature and over current protection on these. If not Please keep an eye on it. Continuous loads like some heaters or motors require wire size adjustment to factor in the added resistance from heat.
Basically i want temps 78 for 12hours and 70 for 12 hours
this device will not do that. you need the one that Auber has. It can be programmed to do step temperature
@@2guysandacooler the 306T aint it
