UNI-T UT301A+ Infrared Thermometer: Non-Contact Laser Temperature Gun, LCD Display, -25.6°F to 788°F (-32°C to 420°C), Red & Grey Review

I didn't think I needed one when my husband ordered it but to be honest I'd say it's easier to use than a traditional one. I have nothing to wash after checking the temperature.

Not sure how accurate this is for commercial use but seems good enough for household use. I've tested it with my fridge, which has a thermometer, as well as my oven and grill, and it's fairly accurate for both hot and cold.

Seriously I think this heat gun is perfect. It fits perfectly in the hand and the design is really perfect. The controls are intuitive and the measurements seem pretty accurate. The only reason I can think of buying a gun with a different temperature is if you need a wider temperature range. Otherwise this heat gun seems like the best choice, it's convenient to use and not bulky like some of the other heat guns on Revain.

I've had great luck with UNI-T tools and this one is no exception. Accuracy is excellent (be careful when estimating surface emissivity, especially on bare (shiny) metal surfaces). Flexibility is also offered by adjustable emissivity settings. The display is clear and legible in a variety of lighting conditions (important in poorly lit areas where devices are frequently used). The ergonomics are good, the fit and finish are excellent. Great price for such a good tool that's worth a few bucks…

I've had a UNI-T multimeter and clamp-on meter for seven years and have never had a problem with either. They make quality tools at a great price. This infrared thermometer is no exception. Although the body of the device is made of plastic, it feels solid. The back of the handle is covered with a thin layer of rubber for a comfortable grip. There is a 1/4"-20 metal thread at the base of the handle, which allows you to mount the thermometer on a tripod. There is also a soft Velcro case with a…

This thermometer's build quality feels solid, and the laser pointer that illuminates what it's pointing at is a nice touch. The thermometer is easy to use and automatically takes the temperature reading when you release the trigger. It also tells you the maximum temperature it observed when you pulled the trigger. Switching between Fahrenheit and Celsius was easy if you followed the instructions in the manual. about 150 degrees Fahrenheit and it worked great for everyone, with measurements that

The UNI-T UT301A+ Infrared Thermometer is a compact device that comes with a thermometer, the required 9V battery, a carrying case and a simple instruction manual. Activating the device is as simple as folding the red part of the handle forward and inserting the 9V battery, then closing the handle. Pulling the trigger gives you a reading, although like me, you'll probably want to switch from Celsius to Fahrenheit first. Consistency is most important, even beyond high accuracy, which is…

This infrared thermometer feels good in your hand, is easy to target with a very bright laser dot, and has a clear and colorful display. to operate the device correctly. Understanding the emissivity concept is important to get accurate results. Not all surfaces radiate energy equally, in the form of radiant heat, and this device must be told the emissivity of the material in order to calculate temperature correctly. The instructions provide an emissivity table for common materials, and you use…

As a budget conscious consumer who is also looking for quality tools, I have other Uni-T tools. Whenever I see a brand, I know it will be reasonably priced while still offering similar performance to the more well-known "American" brands like -hust (and I put quotes because it's often just an American brand , but made in China). - Coincidence -cough-. I have a Uni-T multimeter, clamp meter and non-contact voltage tester and they are my go-to drivers when it comes to electrical work and have…

First things first. This thermometer has an adjustable emissivity range. Many similarly priced thermometers are fixed/non-adjustable. This is extremely useful as infrared thermometers don't set this instrument up and forget it. Different materials have different EVs (emission values), so it's important to do a little research and understand what you're referring to to get the right value. The included manual insert has a useful table of the materials and their EVs, but you can find more…
