Does this come with approved certification??

Yes it does. There is also a very good quality booklet with which shows you how to Re- calibrate it yourself (highly unlikely to need to do it though). It’s a fantastic product, very accurate, responsive, and very easy to use and clean. I know you can get cheaper ones but this is another level and worth every penny!

Can this thermometer be adjusted to read in Fahrenheit? The thermopen uk website indicates that it can, but some of the reviews say it cannot.

Yes it can. Remove the battery cover and flick the small switch numbered 1 away from the battery to switch the Thermapen into Fahrenheit

Are the batteries replaceable?

Yes the batteries can be replaced. It will require 2 x CR2032 3 volt batteries
