Must-Have Accessory for Electrical Work

Using this probe, our team found that it accurately and quickly measures temperatures in hard-to-reach areas. The sharp, durable tip allows for easy penetration into small openings, making it ideal for testing wires and connections. The only downside is that it may not fit into extremely tight spaces, but it still proves to be a valuable tool in our electrical work.

Pros
  • Durable stainless steel construction ensures longevity.
Cons
  • May encounter difficulty in penetrating harder materials.

Does the job expected of a higher temperature sensor.

The TP875 is ideal for evaluating the high temperature heat sources required for surface soldering of lead-free solder. When tested with a standard K-Probe, temperatures below 400 degrees were the same.

Pros
  • Instruments and Gauges
Cons
  • Sundries

Good quality but very slow

Probe is good quality and looks pretty solid but it takes about 5 minutes for the temperature to vary even a few degrees from the actual temperature. I would only recommend buying it if you don't need to quickly log the temperature.

Pros
  • Included components: User manual
Cons
  • New competition has arrived
