works good , nice to have around

Product: Etekcity Lasergrip 800 Digital Infrared Thermometer Gun Rating: 4.5 of 5 (excellent) I cook a lot with cast iron flat griddles, both small and large ... a surface wholly unsuited for corded digital temperature probes, because at the sort of temperatures they’re most commonly used at (450-600F) if the droopy cord connecting the probe to the sensor touches the surface for anything longer than a brief instant, it’s toast, and you have to buy a new one. I’ve ruined several probes that way over the years, and it rapidly becomes annoying. To date, my favorite solution by far is one of the latest generation hand-held wireless Infrared Sensor Guns like the Etekcity Lasergrip 800, which cost me an extremely reasonable and affordable $25 usd in 2017. Anytime I heat a pot of oil for deep-frying, or use a saucier to reduce braising liquid into a thick sweet glaze, or if I use my griddles for things like making Lebanese mountain bread, homemade tortillas, quesadillas, pancakes, fermented dosa crepes, pressed sandwiches (paninis & tortas), burgers, steaks, bacon, blackened fish, eggs, et al., the Etekcity 800 is incredibly handy for rapidly spot-checking the temperature status of your griddle (so you can finesse it accordingly), and also finding any patterns of uneven heating that occur in your setup {TIP: CI is a poor thermal conductor, therefore the slower you heat it, the more evenly it heats}. Different foods like different temperatures too. For example, I like to work at around 500-550F when searing off freshly stretched mountain bread (see photo), which is very thin, and prone to overcooking if your griddle/plancha is too hot. Things like crepes and dosas are even more temperature sensitive, and a thermal gun is indispensable for helping you to stay in the ideal temp range, for significantly better results and less food waste. Likes: * Ergonomic: It’s very fast (under 1 sec), accurate (+/- 2%), lightweight (4 oz), easy to use (very simple and intuitive - reading the manual is purely optional), easy to read, and has a thermal range (-58F to +1382F) that fully covers all my needs, and with plenty of room to spare. * Battery: The specs list 14hrs of cumulative runtime per 9v battery, which is more than enough to last you a year or more, even with regular daily use. * Sensor Aperture: This unit features a sensor with a nice high DSR rating of 16:1 (read: tight aperture), meaning if you hold it at the recomended distance of 14.17 inches, the circular diameter of the region being sensed centered on the siming dot is 1/16th of that, or roughly 0.88 inch (about midway in size between a Nickel and a Quarter). Minor Nits: * Battery (-1/2 star): I’m a big believer in eco-friendly rechargeable, but the designers of this gun opted for a 9v battery design, which while great for low-draw devices like smoke detectors is easily my least favorite, and least efficient formats when it comes to rechargeables. Although there may be some valid technical reasons for the 9v use, I really wish they’d gone with 3.7v 18650’s instead, or perhaps 1.2v AAAs, both of which are highly friendly to low-self-discharge 1000+ cycle rechargeables, and are easily available. * Sensor Reticle (-1/2 star): First, some disambiguation - although this product prominently mentions “laser” in the name, it only uses the laser to provide a single bright dot (your aiming reticle) so you can see where you’re pointing the sensor - the laser is NOT the actual sensing mechanism, nor does the diameter of the dot reflect the diameter of the region being sensed, which many may find confusing or unintuitive. A better pointer design would be a laser ring (multiple dots), instead of a singular dot, with the diameter of the ring matching the DSR rating of the sensor aperture, so that you can see EXACTLY the size of the area being sensed at any given range. Despite these 2 minor nits, I still highly recommend this device, which has become one of my top 10 favorite culinary tools in my kitchen.

I picked up the Etekcity Infrared Thermometer for use in the kitchen and when grilling outdoors, and it has quickly become one of my favorite tools. Whether I’m checking the temperature of a steak on the grill or verifying the heat of my oven, this thermometer delivers fast and accurate readings every time. The laser pointer makes it easy to target exactly where you want to measure, and the display is large and easy to read. I’ve used it for everything from cooking meat to making candy, and it’s always spot on. It works quickly and efficiently, which is especially helpful when you’re in the middle of cooking and don’t want to waste time. The thermometer feels solid and well-made, and the buttons are easy to use. For anyone who loves cooking, grilling, or even baking, this infrared thermometer is a great investment. It’s affordable, reliable, and super useful for getting the perfect temperature on meats, candy, or other foods. Highly recommend!

Impressive functions, measures well up close and two 10' -14'

Funciona a la perfección lo único es que no llego en caja de la marca, pero funciona muy bien y traia su pila incluida

Llegó en tiempo y sin ningún detalle. Lo usé en algunas ocasiones y hasta hoy todo correctamente, el detector de voltaje trabaja bien

Firstly, I found this thermometer to be very easy to use. It has a simple design and is lightweight, making it comfortable to hold and use for extended periods of time. I use this product to test temperature of the lye solution and carrier oil for soap making, and also testing temperature for baking and fridges. The temperature readings are accurate and consistent, and the large, easy-to-read digital display makes it simple to take measurements. The laser targeting system is also a useful feature, as it allows you to pinpoint the exact location on the surface you want to measure. The thermometer also has a wide temperature range, from -58°F to 716°F (-50°C to 380°C) and it comes with 9V battery. I was a little confused on how to get to the battery compartment but after reading the instructions, you pull the handle away, as shown in one of my pictures.

Excelente, su rango de medicion es mas alto que el resto, en mi caso para ver temperaturas de escapes sobre los 700 grados centigrados, el laser es mas potente que el de modelos anteriores, tambien se puede desactivar con un boton y medir asi, la luz de pantalla ayuda en la visualizacion en zonas oscuras por ejemplo recorridos nocturnos en el trabajo, se echa de menos la emisividad ajustable por ejemplo del modelo 630 pero generalmente se ocupa emisividad 0.95. La calidad de materiales es excelente, la bateria ha durado hasta ahora, el laser es fuerte aun bajo luz solar, las mediciones son bastante precisas con un margen de error de 2 a 3 grados comparando con un termopar tipo K, un termopozo y un termometro de mercurio.

Good
