Does anybody know if the SM-066 controller can be put on a SM-045 smoker? I don't need the extra room of the SM-066 but would really like to have more features of the SM-066 controller.
I sent a message to Auber controllers to see if they had anything that would work on the 045 but since it's digital I may be out of luck.

Stuart at cookshack might know about the swap. As for Auber you may have some serious rewiring to do. Both controllers are basically little computers.
Auber says it will work but I will bypass the Cookshack controller, still trying to work it out, no hurry on this. Thank's for the reply.
Are you the same person that's on Smoking It forum? I called Steve in the middle of Dec. about a #3 but he said no stock until end of Jan. I came across the Cookshack SM-045 brand new for $600 so I bought it. Still want Wi-fi control if I can get it.
"Are you the same person that's on Smoking It forum?"
Yes I am. I have 2 smokers from 2 companies. And Lets Talk BBQ (once very robust it is dying), and Smoking Meats Forum, and maybe another or two.
Well, I'd like to keep this CS forum alive, but a lot of the regulars from before the website change have disappeared along with their expertise and experience. Don't know why, but some of them (like andyj) peep in once in a while. I think the older population was heavily weighted towards comp cooks and/or actual restaurant cooks (like Smokin Okie). There must be a lot of people out there cooking on CS smokers, but the traffic has definitely slowed big time in the past 3 - 4 years. Saddens me a bit.
That's to bad when I was a Admin on the Pit Boss Copperhead forum it seemed like a lot of people were getting into smoking but since the copperhead was at a lower price point younger people could afford it then covid hit and as you know everything pretty much stopped.
I'll keep posting when I can. I think it is worth having.

Me to. I'm brand new to the forum. I just finished seasoning my SM066 about 10 minutes ago. Ran like a champ. I will be posting all my cooks. Been reading the archives on some recipes. I also post under the same user name at Smoking Meat Forums as well.
