My BK is 7 years old it came with a factory cat thermometer no temp markings in degrees, any idea what the temps may be at the various probe positions. My probe is 2in, however when I picked up my new combustor from the BK dealer($427)wow, the new BK,King cat thermometer has a 4in probe any one know why,the dealer didn't.
 
Temps don't matter. The only thing you need to know is when it's above the threshold that it's active.
In fact temps will be very different from stove top thermometers on tube stoves, and numbers therefore often lead to confusion.

That said you can buy ones with numbers from other vendors.

The length is specific for the design of the stove and you should not put a thermometer of another length in as you'd be measuring at the wrong place.

I don't know what the length is for your princess.

I have a King,it takes a 2in,but the exact stove I saw yesterday a King parlor takes a 4in. that's where the confusion is,THX
 
Mine is longer too. For me due to the convection top,. leading to a larger distance to the center behind the cat.

That's all
 
This is what you need
