fast measuring without constantly on and off

Under a Prodkttestes of Kidsgo we had a look at the Braun Thermoscan IRT6020 5 Infrared Ear Thermometer.
The thermometer is delivered with 20 caps, so it can be hygienically used for the whole family.
However Disturbing does the fact that the thermometer really only works when you have a cap on it. Are these all, then they have to be bought.

For me personally it was important that I quickly and präszise fairs can in my 8 months old daughter without having to constantly and without specially having to wake in the night and take off.

Here is my opinion:
The thermometer is handy and looks good. It has a large LCD display on top for easier viewing. Unfortunately, the reading field is not lit, which of course does not so easy to measure at night, as I had expected and intended. So you have to turn the lights on and hope the child does not wake up. The correct reading is displayed but after 2-5 seconds. Excellent. No hours of waiting for the beep. The next time you switch on the last measurement result is displayed

Well, I think the pre-warmed tip that promises a genaustes measurement result. Through a green light and a beep indicates the thermometer if it is properly seated in the ear and can be measured correctly. If you hold the thermometer wrong, you hear a beep.

In comparison with a rectal measurement, there was only a difference of 0.1 degrees. I am satisfied with.

The thermometer is further well in the hand and seems to be robust.

Conclusion: I wanted to quickly and easily measure without my sick child, in addition to resent what still with measuring a thermometer. On the day, therefore, I find the thermometer really super. Wait Fast, easy measurement in the ear without long on the result have to. At night unfortunately this thermometer utilizes an not much, as the display (hence a point deduction) is not illuminated. Otherwise highly recommended.
