temperature probe

[ELDAR59]

does anyone use a temperature probe that they could recommend?

i don’t need one to go too high, just for testing temps in the average oven.

cheers.

Re: temperature probe

If you fancy an infrared one I just bought a couple of these

I have been comparing them against my wired probes and they are spot on for accuracy.

Re: temperature probe

hi john, i do have infra red ones, i just wanted a wired one that i could put in the oven, let the stat cycle a couple of times and take a reading.
i don’t use the infra red ones for cooker work, just refrigeration.
can you use them through the glass? if not, i would have thought that once you opened the door, you’d lost most of the heat and then the accuracy?

cheers.

Re: temperature probe

On the fluke it will give an average temp so I just open the door point it at the bottom, both sides and the back to get a reading, I also have a Metrahit 16i with a PTC probe and when I have used both the difference in the readings in negligible.
