I have two Anova's :
A bluetooth and a WiFi.
both purchased at a fine sale price.
I also have a SousVideMagic
from Canada a long time ago.
it still does mighty fine service on my very large cooks

a bit rusty but fine
back to Anova :
I used the Anova bluetooth for an overnight cook . in one of my Coleman coolers
I marked the min line w a Sharpie
and have added water above that.
that cook dropped the water below the min line
as I didn't think too clearly as the ColemanCoolers are not sealed.
added water and OK
then I used that same Anova for a re-heat and heard some noise while the water was above the
sharpie line. added more water , noise went away
tonights dinner is going to be an especially delicious TB that had been smoked after the SV
and Im re-therming it in a smaller Cooler , we water above the sharpie line on the same Anova
about 1/4 "
the Anova beeped too many times and did not keep the temp I asked for
I was above about as much as 4 degrees
I added more water so Im now up at least 1 or maybe 1.5 " from the MinSharpie
seems to be working fine
I can't of course say what sort of damage the A' suffered for several hours below the min
but something sure happen and it seems to be cured for a while w more water 1.5 " above the MIn
Ill keep and eye on Target , as I have the RedCard
( Free Shipping ! 5 % off ! why give Amazon 100 $$ etc )
and get another Anova @ 99 USD ( - 5 % )
whyy ?
the Anova and my SV system are (?) vs is (?) Vital to me.
