Infrared Non Contact Thermometer Laser Sight

The IRT0421 Non-Contact Infrared Thermometer with Laser is designed to accurately measure temperature from a distance. Simply pull the trigger and intention the pistol grip thermometer at an object using the laser indicator and the unit will provide an exact temperature measurement in less than a second. The IRT0421 has an innovative highly exact infrared sensor with a Distance to Spot Ratio of 12 to 1. It uses two AAA batteries rather of the 9-volt battery commonly found in less capable units. With it is low voltage application-specific integrated circuit, battery life is increased by up to 60%.

This infrared thermometer provides precise readings over a wide range of temperatures, from -76 to 932 degrees Fahrenheit (-60 to 500 degrees Celsius). It displays both the current temperature and greatest or most complete or best possible temperature on the bright backlit LCD display. Advanced ergonomic design and rugged construction for industrial environments, the IRT0421 comes with a nylon holster for easy storage and transportation. This non-contact infrared thermometer has been designed for a wide range of uses including automotive diagnostics, HVAC service, electrical troubleshooting, cooking and feed preparation, and hobbies.

Good product --Great price
By Lyle Koonts
I bought it because of the low price & was surprised to find it works just as well as more expensive Fluke thermometers I've used in the past. It works quickly, has a good distance to spot ratio and it's priced just right. I've used it for everything from spot temp checks of computer equipment to checking my freezer & my ceiling insulation coverage. I would buy the same one again if it were lost or broken.

Thermometer accuracy and emissivity
By Goober
Most people don't seem to realize that the accuracy of this thermometer (all infrared temperature sensors) is very dependent on a property of every material called "emissivity". In general, you will get a more accurate reading when the material has a high emissivity. Materials with low emissivity will reflect infrared light. If the material has a *very* low emissivity, such as with aluminum foil, then the device will be reading the temperature of the objects that are in the foil's reflection - such as the kitchen, the oven interior surface, and even yourself. Luckily, most of the surfaces associated with foods being cooked have a high emissivity (water, flesh, oil, plant matter, etc), so the device will be fairly accurate with those. But there's another thing to consider for cooking applications - this device still is only measuring the surface temperature. With foods like meats, you are still going to want to use a temperature probe so that you can measure the inside temperature.
This device should work well with measuring temperature of candy, melted soap, oils, foods cooked at relatively low temperature such as breads, or food that you are re-heating. It should also work very well for examining doughs.
It should also work well on most non-metallic painted surfaces.
It should work *somewhat* on windows, as they have a fairly high emissivity, and low transmittance to infrared (that is, infrared light does not pass through them even though visible light does).
Do *not* use it on any unpainted metals.

Quick Temperature Reading
By D. Snowden
This is a great product and definitely lives up to its product description. The unit has a solid feel and I don't have the impression that it is a low quality product. Temperature readings are quick and accurate as far as I can tell. It provides many uses such as confirming the temperature of foods to finding heat sources in your home. It has helped me pinpoint the areas in my house that I am losing precious air-conditioning.

My biggest problem with the thermometer is the laser, the infrared temperature reads from a much larger area than the laser points to and until you get used to the unit you may be confused by the temperature reading for areas at a distance of 4 feet or more away.

But all in all a great product.
