Does anyone know of a high (at least 1,200 F) WiFi sensor/thermometer with data logging? I use a UbiBot sensor package on my Switzer boiler, but the highest temp probe they sell goes to 752F or so. I’m contemplating adding a sensor to a place on my boiler that I’m certain is well over that. I can find sensor/thermometer packages that go that high, but they aren’t WiFi.

What do you have it connected to? I’m looking for not just a probe. I would like a WiFi controller that it goes on.
 
regardless of what you end up with, at those sustained temps and corrosive atmosphere, you should have a ceramic sheath to cover the sensor from direct flame. Omega sells also. Doubt there’s a cheap reliable way around this, other than possibly a wireless data logger.
 
I am using this.

These guys have a reliable system that uses Omega probes.

Thank you for your info. Which Fireboard device do you use? The ones I have looked at say that max temp is 752, but obviously that is either wrong or I haven’t found the correct one yet. Thanks again!
 
Omega uses type k thermocouples, so you would need this from FireBoard.

This one goes to 2100 degrees.
