I bought the infrared thermometer for foiling my hood, but now the thing is in the kitchen. Amazing what you can measure so everything. Pan hot enough for the steak? Pizza still too hot to touch? Girlfriend today rather hot or cool? (In the meantime, more sour when I come to the thing, woman just :-) The temperature displayed entsprich always about what I can measure with other thermometers and I'm assuming that he works almost exactly within the specified Tolerance, which is more than accurate enough for me. I have an amazing amount of fun with it and can only recommend the thing.
