Etekcity Infrared Thermometer, -50°C~610°C(-58°F~1130°F), Non-Contact Digital Laser Temperature Gun with LCD Display,for Cooking/Pizza/Oven/Refrigerator (Not for Human)

I bought this to measure the temperature of a nitro engine in a radio control car. It is brilliant! Much cheaper than the big brand alternatives but still works really well. It is accurate (I’ve tested it against boiling water etc) and feels well made. The laser allows you to pinpoint where the temperature is taken and this feature can be turned on or off as required. It will measure in Celsius or Fahrenheit and everything is so easy. Just point and pull the trigger. Need the laser just press a button and it will work next time you pull the trigger. Want F instead of C, just press another button and it’ll change the scale. Want the display to be backlit, then just press the appropriate button and it’ll do that. It really does tick every box - value, accurate and easy to use. I really couldn’t improve it in anyway!

Excellent piece of kit for the price. I purchased in order to balance my radiators and thought a non contact digital thermometer would be ideal. It arrived very quickly and was pleasantly surprised to find that the 9v battery was included (we all know how expensive these can be). Set up was instant, just plug in the battery and you are good to go! It has a nice comfortable grip and an easy to read display. The device worked perfectly, giving instant accurate readings every time. Ok these were all the positives, now let’s look at the negatives. As I mentioned I ordered for my radiators, but this is so much fun! I’ve taken the temp of my hand, mouth, foot, bath water, tea, coffee, sofa (in the sun), sofa (not in the sun), hob flame, hot tap, cold tap, cats fur, cats ear, cats foot, cats nose. I tell my wife the temperature of her cup of tea every time I make one. I’ve not yet taken the temp of the radiators which was the reason for my original purchase. It’s addictive thinking of things to take a reading from. But in all seriousness, great product I would high recommend.

Seems to work ok, I’m using it to take the temperature of a pizza oven so I don’t really have any way to tell if it’s 460°C or 470°C. Not that that really matters! Therefore it’s probably accurate enough. Can’t speak for the durability yet, but it does feel quite light and very plastic. Quick to turn on and easy to use. The light on the lcd display is useful. My only criticism would be that it turns off quite quickly when not used, but I suppose that I would complain if the battery life was poor - so I guess that’s ok.

Great quality and seems to be accurate (or at least it registers a temperature measurement differential quite sensitively between different surfaces in close proximity). It has a good distance range too.

So many things you find that it would be so useful to check it's temperature. If a dashcam gives a maximum temperature it can cope with, you put it in the window but in the sun all day how sure can you be you're not going from baking to breaking? I was surprised that in a mild spring day the albeit black dashboard got to over 60°C so I now take it down for the day. Actually use Magnetproa's circular neodymium countersunk magnets in the car's footwell to snap them quickly out of the way. For not much money, this is accurate, easy to use and a pleasure to see explicit empirical values for temperatures you'd find impossible otherwise to check. Point and shoot, let go to hold the temp onscreen and flip back and forth from °C to °F and vice-versa. Backlight and laser add to the quality. Battery included. (It's overcast now with the windows open, car dashboard is still 42°C (107°F), acting like a radiator, no wonder a foil screen helps (search for "Freesoo", it's a winner for sun and frost). If you're a racer, maybe go to Rye House kart racetrack, this would be great for testing tyre and track temperatures, for info down below the tarmac in the golf car park is 27.6°C/81.6°F. My palm is 34.9°C/94.8°F.... addictive!! Dashcam is 30°C/86°F and it's max operating temp is 60°C so all safe but it's back on it's magnet holders when I get out. Parts of a car engine can be checked. See how hot the exhaust air of an air-con vent is, then how chilly the air is. I point out at the sky and it changes when it's a cloud, blue sky or the sun!!! -20°C for the sky, 10°C underside of a cloud and 100°C+ for the sun ⛅. Decent distance-to-spot ratio.... 12 to 1, so you need an area that is at least a twelfth of how far away you are from it. From a foot away, the spot needs to be an inch across, at least. Bought 2!! Can turn the backlight off and on, only 3 buttons needed.... Point and shoot, so easy. Internal fridge items to test. Solid construction, Etekcity, never heard of them but they've a brilliant product here.

Ottimo prodotto in linea con i dati tecnici. Materiali e fattura buoni. Semplicità d'uso e precisione di misura abbastanza realistica (comparato con termometro professionale). Spedizione veloce ed imballo robusto. Venditore molto cortese (ha inviato tramite mail le istruzioni in italiano). Consigliato.

Highly recommended really functional accurate Very helpful

Macht was es soll,die Temperatur ist auch sehr genau.

Been using it everyday months after purchase. it very accurate and very well made.

Das Gerät wurde mit der benötigten 9 Volt-Batterie geliefert. Die Bedienungsanleitung ist leicht verständlich; so war das Gerät schnell einsatzbereit. Zusätzlich ist seitlich am Gerät ein Aufkleber angebracht, der den optimalen Bereich für den Messabstand angiebt, was sehr hilfreich war. Die Messergebnisse, die ich auch mit anderen Messmöglichkeiten verglichen habe, scheinen genau zu sein. Das Gerät liegt gut in der Hand und macht einen soliden Eindruck. Das Display ist gut ablesbar und zusätzlich beleuchtbar. Die zu messende Temperatur ist zwischen Celsius und Fahrenheit umschaltbar. Insgesamt bin ich mit dem Gerät rundum zufrieden.
