Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

An online petshop gave this to me free with an order I placed. I still use it!! I bought a thermometer from lowes for $30.00 + and they were .2 to .1 off from each other.
I would buy this if I needed another one

easy to use, extremely inexpensive,
|
|
Cons:

a tiny bit off and not instant
|

I have a couple of them and they're all off by a degree or two, but since I always provide a gradient anyway, it's not a big deal

These are good if youre just trying to see a general temperature, and not something super accurate. They work, and id use them for single applications if needed.

Caught in the running flames, Alone, How shall we leave the lost road, Time's getting short so follow me
A leader's task so clearly, To find a path out of the dark"

Cheap I guess?

Cons:
|
Can be very innacurate

I used to use a lot of these for my geckos and others, until I got a temperature gun- which revealed they were off by anywhere from 5 to 20 degrees, usually reading too low. I think only one of them out of five actually read the right temp within a degree or two. That's outright dangerous.

I use it in my fish tank. As long as you don't touch it, you will get a readout. If you bump the sending wire, or move the unit in any way, the screen usually goes blank and sometimes will not readout for a while after wards. This might be a fluke with my particular unit.

One must realize compared with life elsewhere in the universe, life on earth is extremely primitive. Our methods, knowledge, and our machines are primitive. Yet, it's easy to feel we have reached the pinnacle of wisdom and knowledge. 1 Corinthians 3:19,20 and Isaiah 55:8,9 are enlightening.

Pros:
|
Long Probe Wire, Clear Display, Simple Design
|
|
Cons:
|
Does not last long. Wire Connection goes bad. Display Deteriorates.
|
|
Bottom line, these are really great when you first get them, but they don't last long.
I have owned several of these thermometers and would like to say that my problems with them were a one time occurrence, but every one that I have owned has gone bad within a few months to a year. The probe connection will go loose and cause the reading to jump around like crazy. Sometimes moving it around and resetting the power will fix it, but its only a matter of time before it happens again. Ive also had trouble with the display disappearing. It come back if you press on the screen or reset the power most of the time. I have only had one of these thermometers last long enough that I needed to replace the battery.
