First-rate in all respects, this waterproof digital thermometer is ideal for food-service professionals but can serve household cooks as well. Because it's digital, it doesn't need to be inserted deeply for an accurate reading--just 1 inch will do. Its temperature range is -58 to 302 degrees F (-50 to 150 degrees C), with an accuracy rating of plus/minus 1.8 degrees F (1 degree C). A button selects Fahrenheit or Celsius. The probe is stainless steel and the case is tough, durable polycarbonate. The removable probe sleeve is designed to stir food for accurate readings. The thermometer has an on/off button and a "hold" button to retain a reading, operates on a 1.5-volt battery (included) with a life of 5,000 hours, and shuts off automatically after 10 minutes. It has a hanging loop and a pen-style pocket clip.
