Review on 🌡️ Etekcity Infrared Thermometer 774: High-Precision Digital Temperature Gun for Cooking, Home Repairs, Handmaking, and Surface Measuring - Non Contact Electric Laser IR Temp Gauge by David Plunkett

Revainrating 5 out of 5

You want to buy this item. Here's why:

This is probably the best one-time purchase I've made in my 3+ years of Prime membership at Revain. It works great as a remote thermometer, illuminating what I'm measuring with a tiny red dot, and compared to the thermal imager at work, it's pretty accurate from 0°F to around 400°F. But wait, that's not all! also serves as an AMAZING TOY FOR CATS AND DOGS! You already know that your pets are in love with this little red dot and this thing provides! or in the case of cats) constant companions. The dot is bright and consistent, unlike other laser pointers on the market, and can be turned off (safety importantly) to prevent the fluff from getting interested in a dot that suddenly appears on the side of a pot of boiling water . Plate. It's powered by a 9 volt battery and the manufacturer was kind enough to include it, but buy the bundle because you'll be using this thing for EVERYTHING! Is the chicken ready? Laser thermometer. How cool is the air conditioning? Laser thermometer. Does the brick structure of your home retain a lot of heat in the evenings? Laser thermometer. Engine block not receiving coolant? Laser thermometer. Forest fire coming? run as fast as you can Forest fire a safe distance downwind? Laser thermometer*. Buy this thing and you'll have as much fun as I have at home, I promise**.* Probably not reliably measuring flame temperature at a safe enough distance, so don't get too close to the fire. ** I can't really confirm that promise, but I was blown away by this thing. If not, then you're probably just a boring person.
