Infrared Thermometer, ACEGMET Thermometer Gun -58℉~1022℉ (-50℃～550℃) Non-Contact Temperature Gun Adjustable Emissivity Laser Thermometer Gun with LCD Display for Cooking/BBQ/Refrigerator

The size and accuracy are great for this compact thermometer. Having additional information like the percentage of humidity or the weather temperature are a nice add-on. The wide proyection laser is great to help you find both the measuring spot and how wide the measuring area is.The only problem I had was that the included "new" batteries were death, so I initially thought the thermometer had an issue til I decided to try different batteries.

I decided to pick up one of these infrared thermometers because I keep seeing them in griddle/flat top/Blackstone videos when people are testing surface temperature.I did not realize there were so many options so I decided on this product because it had a great price and seemed to fall in line with the temp variances and ranges as other ones that cost more.The pros:It comes with batteriesIt has a simple yet detailed instruction manualThere are only 3 buttons with a simple readoutIt reads within 2 degrees of accuracyCons:-Testing hot items can be more difficult (this seems common across the board, think internal temp versus surface temp)-The manual details a lot of the radiance related to metals but doesn’t include other surfaces (likely because this is more of a science instrument than an outdoor Grillers tool lol)I decided to give the testing a go between my digital thermometer and this one just to see the variance. In cold temps they were the same and that seems to be true for using these tools (cold seems to be less of an issue).When measuring hot temps it seems that with the infrared being more reflective the temp is off but this was for measuring the temp of water. My digital thermometer read about 151 whereas this read around 138/140. However as I moved my digital thermometer higher, the reading became more clear that the infrared thermometer was capturing surface temperature.Like most outdoor grillers, the moment I wanted to test this in action my grill heated up to about 120 before the flame went out and I realized my tank was empty. Nevertheless I had a backup tank! It was empty as well because when the going gets hot, you need to keep that temp going and I swapped tanks in the middle of a cook and forgot all about that.I highly recommend this product. I am so excited to use this for future cooks outside on my flat top.

I have to put the temp gun into a certain area for approximately 5 minutes in order for it to read the humidity right which is a pain. When buying this I thought it was going to be able to read humidity just how it reads temperature.

I do not like that do not have backlight so , literally you have to turn it the light outside or inside . It is not readable outside bc do not have back light. If it's dark in house or apt you can't read it. How ever it does have moisture detection in apartment or house , but that's also is not accurate. Save money and buy better product.

This works great with my corn snake cage, and whatever is on the grill.

The device is easy to use and having a defined target area helps insure that I know what temperature is being sampled. Very useful.

I use this thermometer for use in the shop to measure temp of saw blade bearings, soldering iron temps if critical soldering on circuit boards, wheel hubs when towing heavy loads especially if wheels have electric brakes as well as many other uses. I also use when working on ovens to verify baking temps or the return air if working on an HVAC system. This has been a very nice addition to my toolbox.

. . . start with the right temperature grill before you lay down the meat. This lets me do exactly that. Likewise, want low and slow set of perfectly smoked ribs on a gas grill? You want to start with the right temp to keep the smoke flowing, and the meat cooking WHILE getting all that lovely smoke flavor. There's more science to good grilling than I'd ever thought, and this is one of the tools you really want for that. With the right tools and know how, great grilling is so easy and tastes so good!You want one of these, seriously!

Good product
