So should "child-friendly" happen into the house and there is also a middle ear infection not just something rare, I wanted a universal measuring instrument that the measurement on the forehead permits and not for every application requires a new cap or the like. With 3 kids that can quickly get out of hand so times. The Beurer FT 70 appealed to me visually and by the possibilities here, so ordered purely to the cart and at Amazon.com.
The thermometer is very good in the hand, is meticulously crafted with no sharp corners, edges or joints in plastic due to the tool separation, and is operated by a total of 4 buttons. As already it is advisable to study the 8-lingual guide. Here you can among other things, the "normal" temperature ranges to the different measurement methods read (in German p.7). After the first set then also carried out the functional check, finally, I wanted to convince of the claimed "measurement uncertainty" myself times. Several measurements in the ear have shown a maximum deviation of 0.1 ° C, our old thermometer was there much worse! In the end the result varies naturally stronger; Speed, approach angle, pressure, etc.. offer as many more options for influencing the measurement, but with 0.2 ° C maximum variation between measurements I am more than satisfied. Honestly, I have absolutely nothing to complain about at the FT 70!
Whether you really need the voice output, is times undecided. During the night, and for me as a spectacle wearer to offers this function and to vary the volume with the possibility to not frighten the whole family in a measurement from the bed. The illumination in blue light is certainly nothing to sneeze at, but as I said, at night, bleary-eyed, with a sick child in bed and perhaps even without Very help learn to appreciate love the voice.
Have for other measurements as fever or body temperature and I will not use the FT 70, so I can not make any statement on the object measurement. My Rotwei I drink with room temperature, my coffee hot, the soup as well ... it comes to me on the number of degrees with the best will not start.
With all due respect and without someone to his feet appear to want this part is great, exactly and every family more than recommended with children. If I want to cheat the measurement, that is always possible (we used to hold the mercury thermometer rubbed at bat suit sleeve) and I have to stop the measurement also make carefully. Also I have to be at the respective measurement on the inaccuracies in the clear. First choice is always the measurement in the ear to be, but in a middle ear infection which I'll stay away. Dannn forehead measurement is the preferred choice.
