Ahhh...that makes more sense, and thanks for the heads up.

And why do they need Bluetooth on a sous vide? Makes no sense to me.

Because they couldn't figure out a good way to get a helpful interface on the unit itself is my guess. That scroll wheel stuff looked like crap in the video I saw.

Probably. But why did they downgrade the motor? Why not provide an option with Bluetooth AND the original motor? I'd rather have the better motor.

How weak do you figure the downgraded motor could possibly be? You don't need much.

Unless you plan on using one of those 60 gallon coolers to do several dozen steaks, I'd be shocked if that unit didn't have plenty of power for basic home use.

This is from memory, I think capacity of the Precision is 4 gallons; the One is 6. IIRC.

Well hell, those are both pretty shitty motors then.

They both seem to have roughly the same limitations, I would think. You're looking at large stock pots as about their peak capacity. What really falls between the 4 and 6 gallon range? A large stock pot isn't going to be more than 4 gallons and what would you use that's less than 6?

It just seems like the 6 gallon unit is caught in an odd middle ground. The extra power doesn't help you for basic uses and how many times will you actually be using a 6 gallon receptacle as opposed to a 4 and have it matter?

I don't know... but I like the possibility.

This is like something I would use if I buy this: http://www.amazon.com/Cambro-12189CW...nate+container

Looks like the deal is already dead, they were new, listed at $199 but the code took $100 off. Looks like now they are at $144 but the code doesn't work.
