5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect Instant Thermometer For Just About Everything, April 18, 2009

This device might just be the best portable thermometer ever. It's small and pocketable and will tell you the temperature of almost any surface in just one second. No need to reach equilibrium temperature.

Go outside and point at a wall that's been in the shade or in the sun and you have the range at that moment. Pointing it a large wall from across the street gives you a quick average. Point it a surface up close and you can actually do a pretty good temperature mapping , like what is the hot or cold spot on your computer, air conditioner, etc. Don't point it at the sky unless you want to know that it's really, really cold up there. :-)

I take it with me everywhere.

This review is from: Compact Infrared Thermometer

This is the best infrared thermometer for kitchen use, based on it's compact size and the temperature range. Fit's very neatly in a drawer or along side the stove and not nearly as cumbersome as the gun-style infrareds available.

Word of warning - the item is no bigger than a minute, but the shipping costs for this item was over 30% of the total cost when I order it. It was worth the price of shipping to get the compact size for me, but not all may agree.

1.0 out of 5 stars Spend the extra bucks on a better model, January 15, 2009

I bought this because the price was right however, you get what you pay for. You basically have to touch the object you're reading and even then it gives varied readings. On the positive side it's tiny and quick.
