I have an 11 gallon stainless conical on the way and I'm thinking about my temp control options.  I've seen ice probes being used on conicals from Morebeer and I'm interested in hearing if they work as a practical matter and not just in theory.  I could use a fridge or stand up freezer but I really have enough appliances with three chest freezers.  I could also use a stainless chilling coil with glycol running through it as well but that requires a freezer as well.  What is your experience conical owners?

I'm not familiar with an ice probe.  I assume it is the cold version of an immersion heater?
