Noooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Post by JimPotts »

I just discovered that my Thermopen is broken. It's cracked at the hinge, and doesn't turn on.

I'm guessing one of the kids was responsible. :evil:

I've been having issues with mine for a while. I have to take the battery out and re-insert it to get it to turn on sometimes. Try that before buying a new one, Pottsie.

This is my back-up thermometer. Pretty good for the price.

I'm using that Lavatools Thermowand also. best thermometer I've had so far.

Aside from being smaller, and maybe not quite as waterproof, is it just as good at measurements as the Thermopen?
