Cables = Dependable
Bluetooth = Occasional dropped communications

Maybe Bluetooth is more reliable these days, but when I tested a Serial to Bluetooth device a few years back, it would occasionally drop communications. You don't want that happening in the middle of running a heat.

Maybe if the timer could hold state across connections?
