Pokit meter and Pokit's NTCs

Will it be made possible to use the Pokit meter with the NTCs which Pokit supply?

I'm not sure quite why the NTCs sold by Pokit are terminated in 4mm plugs (commercially available NTCs are commonly supplied terminated in slim crimped ferrules) and this makes it difficult for the meter to hook onto 'reliably' (unless you make a soldered interface!) but it's possible to connect an 'ordinary' 20KR NTC (as is commonly used in solar thermal installations) to a 'meter' and for it to track the variations in temperature. It's just that deploying the Pokit Pro out on the roof is an over-the-top necessity to monitor the temperature.

  The Pokit Pro NTC also comes with the appropriate banana adaptors that fit onto the probe tips.

  You can use another NTC there is nothing particularly magic about our one except that it has a specific B curve you will have to match for the math in the app to convert to a temperature correctly
