Excellent news. The same calibrator is compatible with Bluetooth thermometers as well.The question was nothing to do with the pill !
It was about the Bluetooth thermometer used during the mash

Do you use your toe or your elbow to check your mash temperature

No need. I am not thereI suppose you cover the screen on your Braumeister then
You sound completely disinterested in the whole processNo need. I am not there
If I lose interest maybe I'll get myself a Braumeister.

Not disinterested just asleep 
I wake up, make a coffee and then start the boil.
Why do I need to watch grains stew? If I didn't trust the braumeister I would fix it or change it. I don't stand and watch the slow cooler or the washing machine all day.
I personally don't understand the peeps that buy an all-in-one machine and then use it like a burco with a basket

I had a Rapt thermometer which was a couple of degrees out I contacted the supplier TMM and after they contacted Kegland they confirmed that it could NOT be calibrated and replaced the unit FOC .
Cheers. I'm not too worried about it as it's fine so long as I know how much it's out by, would just have been handy if you were calibrating whichever one was in use at the time.
During the mash I relax and have a coffee.Not disinterested just asleep

I let my controller talk to the Bluetooth thermometer while I've got my feet up.
Maybe if I didn't have the Bluetooth thermometer I would be up and down dipping a thermometer in the mash.
Incidentally when I was using my burco, I used to put my feet up and have a coffee during the mash because I built a pid temperature controller for it, so maybe I am using it like a Burco with the grain basket.

My Rapt Thermometer went way out in the first year. I contacted BKT and they just sent a replacement out which was received within 48 hours
i had a rapt pil, it worked once. AHB said send it back and gave me a full refund

I have a Rapt Bluetooth thermometer with Zero problems except when I forgot to connect to the Brewzilla
I also have two Rapt pills which I converted to wireless charging, both have worked exactly as I expected.
They don't make better beer, but I can see exactly when fermentation has been finished for two days without taking a sample.
I can also monitor fermentation without pressure and decide when to add the spunding valve before fermentation is complete to carbonate naturally in the fermenter, (a similar process to cask or bottle conditioning).
You can also do this with similar products like the ispindel hydrometer.

Both, most recently for a best bitter. Naturally carbonated during the latter stages of fermentation to 1.5 vol.

Thanks. Just trying to understand.
I major on bottled ale, fluttering around the pressure fv & kegs bright light at the moment to see if there is any gain for my process? (OK habit)

I mainly keg using corny kegs. Occasionally I bottle a few to take out using a counter pressure device.Thanks. Just trying to understand.

I can't decide if a double 23l batch. Spread across 3 kegs (15+ L each) is worth a test.
Significantly more work, to ferment. But no bottling. And 1 run for twice the output.

Well we on the forum can't decide for you
I usually do a 23 L batch for one corny keg.
But as I finish the fermentation with pressure and and end up with carbonated beer in the fermenter, my picnic tap solves the problem
