Both temperature probe "real time", cooking sensor and timer, the object is well designed. The cable between the CPU (magnetic mount) and probe measures about 1,15m, which is more than enough ... Powered by standard AAA battery: no risk of being out of exotic button batteries ... On the back, on / off switch ... Only notable downside (it would have been desirable to see in the product description ...!), Its incompatibility with induction lights: limitation explicitly mentioned in the leaflet, and recognized for the use (however, one-off measures appear to remain possible, so that the probe does not touch the metallic container exposed to induction).
