Simple, fun, well made, accurate September 5, 2008
I am doing some AC work as a homeowner and have been lusting after one of these tools, and when I saw the Amazon price and read the reviews it sold itself. Got it and within minutes was entertaining myself and kids by checking the temperature of various things using the laser. Appears to be accurate, as others have posted. Very simple to use, even the instructions are very brief as there isn't much to it. One thing I'd like to see is a way to turn backlight off if you don't need it for increased battery life, but its ok the way it is.
This unit feels professional - and I'm pretty picky with tools. Great bargin! Fun showing my kids temperature of oven, clouds, bricks, interior walls, etc. As others have mentioned, good for cooking too. Note: instructions indicate this type of unit is not 100% accurate on shiny metal objects - common to all of this type.
Useful Product. August 31, 2008
This device measures surface temperature: just what it's advertised to do. The package also includes an analog thermometer for checking the internal temperature of meat, etc.
Great for the kitchen. August 16, 2008
This great tool solved some cooking problems for me by allowing me to check the temperature in my pans in different situations to ensure food is browned perfectly. Too often things got burned on my electric range. In frustration, I was ready to buy temperature controlled items such as an electric fry pan, griddle, etc. I don't have counter space for them and didn't want to, but didn't want to serve burned food either. This tool allows me to monitor temperatures instantly at any point in cooking so I know if the heat needs to be adjusted. For example, a 'high' setting may get me off to a quick start, but when does it become too much of a good thing? Now I can tell. Is my oven performing correctly? my fridge? No more burned stuff here (or improperly cooled items) and no need to buy appliances I don't have space for. It's very useful when grilling outside as well, and around the house. For example, does it make a difference at my thermostat if I close this vent or that, close this door or that? Now that I know, I've actually been able to lower my electric bill. I've found multiple uses for the tool. Its instant readout is as simple as pointing and pulling the trigger. The display is good sized and easy to read. The red laser dot tells you exactly what spot you're measuring, near or far, and it turns itself on and off. Can't beat that. This item paid for itself just as fast as it reads temps. Although it has a storage case, I don't need it since the tool never gets put away. It lives next to my range and is used regularly.
Good solid product. Accurate. August 8, 2008
Good item. I use to monitor food temps as well as A/C duct work.

For the cost of this unit it seems to be a good buy. It comes in a nice case, has an easy setup, and so far seems to be accurate. I would give it a higher rating but I have only had it for about 2 weeks so we will have to see how it holds up. It has a nice range of temp, and you can see the laser well. If you don't have one it is very handy to have in your shop.
