The thermometer is about 6" long. It does have a clip on the sheath that protects the probe, but the thermometer is not suitable for candy making unless you want to use it as a quick way to check the temperature. It will NOT fasten to the side of the pan like regular candy-making thermometers. Sorry.

No. There's no timer or temperature probe. It's a grill like a barbecue grill. I used it last night for a tri tip. Just watch it.

Yes! The probe it comes with is braided with stainless steel and is usable up to 700 degrees Fahrenheit, according to the manufacturer.

temp probe is very accurate to a tenth degree. don't if it's unique to the unit but then You don't need another one.

The probe needs to be long enough otherwise you would melt the plastic. The probe length is several feet.

Yes, it works great, in fact I bought two. The silicone coated probe will melt at approximately 350°. The steel braided probe is rated up to 600°. Be careful though cause some outdoor cookers can even exceed 600°.

Yes, the unit came with a clip on temp gauge with a fairly short probe that work fine.

The probe that comes with it is bent at 90. The needle probe is shorter and more narrow and I wouldn't bend it. It's really for taking a quick temp.

The gauge has a 2 inch diameter and is located on the outside of the smoker. The thermometer/probe fits through a 1/2 inch hole that I drilled in the lid and is about the level of my grate.

The temp probe is a standard 10k NTC 1% Thermistor. You can buy or build custom replacements easily.

It's for the oven temperature. You can buy a different probe to use with it for checking food/meat temperatures, though.

I'd use a probe in an oven, not touching metal, but the heat from a BBQ will destroy the probe - IMO! You might get away with it several times, but the probe will not last on a covered grill.

The two probes that I have attached to my geo-thermal system are only about 1/16" in dia..

probe is 4.5" and overall it is 7". No problem checking temp on a turkey with this.

It will tolerate the temperature, but the probe is rather short for your purposes... I would be afraid of burning myself if used that way... maybe if you used a heat-proof glove at the same time?

The recessed heating element portion of the warmer measures just over 3" in diameter (3.25") . . . . good luck!
