Etekcity Dual Laser Infrared Thermometer for Accurate Temperature Measurement

Dave: Works well

Audiophule: I've become a pandemic stay-at-home cook for my family and have gradually expanded my arsenal of kitchen tools. I'm been somewhat frustrated by temperature variations between my different skillets (non-stick, cast iron, stainless steel) and thought I'd try this out. The bottom line is that it's extremely easy to use (the dual laser beams really work) and it's quite educational in terms of knowing more precisely what's going on in the pan (at least temperature wise). Has it transformed my cooking? Not really, but I've no regrets and continue to practice with it each time I pre-heat a pan!

Howard: It works. No guessing about temps on your flat top or even the skillet. Easy to use and convenient too.
If you want to do a sear on a steak you can “Dial it in” on the griddle or skillet, as it were, with this thermometer.

I’ve had it a few weeks, use it frequently without a problem.

diggs: with 2 lasers it is easy to tell if you are at a good distance to get a good reading . when you are further away it shows how large an area your are measuring . wish it came with a case .

jeancafel: It's a great tool to have in the house. I used it to measure the temperature on my condensing fan motor, my ac compressor and even food temperature on the stove. Highly recommend it.

Andrew Shakespeare: excels in all facets of heat reading. can't praise it highly enough.

Adolfo d.: Es un buen producto y funcional de uso rudo y buenas lecturas de temperatura, un punto en contra es que no emite un sonido al apretar el gatillo y envía dos puntos de referencia que en mi punto de vista devería ser un solo punto.

mike dolmaya: It is not accurate on high temperatures above 150C. The higher the temperature, the higher is the errors in reading temperature. When temperature is 190C the reading from the gun is 248c with over 50c error.
However, if the temperature between 22-100 degrees, the unit is accurate. We did not tested for subzero temperatures.

S. Johnson: This is a great product. The plastics feel very high quality, and have a great texture and good feel in the hand. It gets a reading instantly, and appears to be accurate to within a degree, at least when compared with other thermometers I have. Moving it around to different surfaces, it seems to get a new reading in about 3/4 second.

It's dead simple to use; just pull the trigger and it automatically turns on and gets a reading, then turns off after 15 seconds. The screen is very easy to read, and the controls are very simple, but you won't need them often anyway.

This thing feels much more expensive than the price would lead you to believe, and I couldn't be happier with it. As an added bonus, my cats love the dual laser pointers.

Russell McFatter: This thermometer really works, and the dual laser is worth the few extra dollars you'll spend for it. By using two lasers, you can not only aim the thermometer but also gauge the distance/spot size (imagine a circle sandwiched between the two laser dots) so you know exactly how much area you're averaging. (Documentation and a handy label on the unit recommend a distance of 14 inches for the best result). I tested against other thermometers and found this one to be very accurate. For less than $20 it feels like a much more expensive instrument because the details are "just right". Pull the trigger and there's a delay of just under a second while the device calibrates; then the lasers and backlight come on. The display shows the current spot temperature plus the maximum so far for that session. Buttons are in a good place; you can turn off the lasers or screen backlight if you don't need them (and those settings are remembered!), and the display holds for just the right amount of time after you release the trigger.

It's educational to just walk around your house and measure the temperature of ordinary things: a human's skin temperature runs around 87-90F, coffee from a...
