Whether you are relaxing at home or out on-the-go while your Traeger is fired up, the Traeger Pellet Sensor will monitor the level of pellets in the hopper so you do not have to. Installed within just a few steps, the Pellet Sensor is mounted directly into the hopper and automatically integrates with WiFIRE upon installation. The Electronic Optical Measurement Sensor keeps track of the level of pellets, alerting you with app notifications when it is time to refuel. View the amount of pellets currently in your hopper, displayed as a percentage, with the Traeger App. The app allows you to monitor the temperature and pellet levels of your Traeger, so you can ensure you achieve the perfect cook on your brisket or ribs even when you are not at home. For added convenience, the Pellet Sensor also includes a bright LED light, so you can quickly and easily manually check the level of pellets within the hopper. Take the guessing game out of the amount of pellets in your hopper, so you can prevent flame outs and cook with confidence. For use with D2 Direct Drive WiFIRE enabled grills only: Pro 575 & 780 and Ironwood 650 & 885 Grills.

Love the sensor, but...

The sensor and the WiFire are great, but it would be nice if maybe you thought about all the rest of us with older Traeger. I'd love to upgrade without having to spend an arm and leg to get a new grill. My old one works great, and I don't feel the need to go into debt over a grill! Thanks for making great products and just maybe think about your established Traeger users.

Great for long jobs

Kind of the missing link for every D2-controller Traeger. Install took 5mins and the sensor work as promised.

Installing the electrical connector.

When installing, be careful to not let the Traeger side connector fall back into the front panel box. If you do you may have to remove the front panel to reach the connector and shove it through the access hole like I did.

Better than nothing!

Really nice to get some sense of how many pellets are left. It doesn't take into account uneven distribution from the divot that is caused by pellets being pulled in by the auger, so it'l day 30% when it's more like 50% after smoothing they out again, but it's still something, gives me some idea of what's left, and I definitely recommend it!

Truly WiFi perfection

The pellet sensor allows me the freedom to do whatever I need to get done during the day. I smoke and grill often this sensor takes this guess work out of when I need to refill the hopper

When will my item arrive?

Once shipped, items usually arrive within 3-5 business days. While UPS and FedEx are our carriers for smaller items, be aware that larger items and orders are shipped via freight. The freight process is a bit more complicated than what we've all come to expect for small parcels, so it's important that you're prepared and understand what's required of you well before delivery day.

  • Most freight products ship on a pallet
  • Some carriers will call to schedule a delivery window, while others will deliver the shipment to a reasonably accessible location closest to your residence (their goal is to deliver as near a garage door as they can).
  • We'll specify which process you can expect in your shipping confirmation email.

For carriers that schedule delivery appointments:

Carriers that schedule delivery appointments require you to be home for delivery and provide your signature. The delivery is made with a semi-truck with lift gate services, and the shipment is dropped off at the curb. If you authorize the shipping company to leave the delivery without a signature, BBQGuys can't be held responsible for damages that occur during delivery. As complicated as this process may seem, we've only scratched the surface here — please review our detailed guide to freight delivery so there are no surprises when a freight shipment heads your way.

For carriers that deliver without an appointment:

Carriers that deliver without an appointment don't require you to be home or set up a delivery window, and you aren't required to sign for the pallet(s). Instead of scheduling an appointment, arranging your schedule to be home for the delivery, and signing to confirm receipt, you can sit back and let your items come to you. If you're home at the time of the drop-off, you can request the driver place your delivery in the garage; if you're out of the house, the driver will leave it near the garage or doorstep.
