KINTREX IRT0421 Non-Contact Infrared Thermometer with Laser

This is one very handy tool at a nice price.

First, the display is backlit and very readable inside, but just a bit faint outside in bright daylight. It fits the palm of the hand better than other devices belonging to friends I've tried, and provides sturdy, dependable, and accurate information indoors.

I bought mine to check for temperature leaks for recaulking and insulating my house, but I am astounded to how useful it is indoors. First, in the kitchen, check that oven temperature or the outside of the loaf of bread you are baking. I bought mine for that, although remember what other writers have said about how large an area you may be measuring relative to the laser pointer.

In your home entertainment cabinet, check the air temperature around your receiver and other gear -- you may find out that it's getting warmer than you want -- and you'll see the consequences of leaving that power on. Same with your PCs -- check the output temp of the fans on your laptop. If you want to know if your A/C is working properly, a quick shot up to the output baffle will confirm the temp of the cold air coming out there -- no more getting a ladder or stool to hold your hand up to it and guess. Check food temperature in the kitchen, including your freezer or fridg, and make sure you and your family are safe. I am sure there are dozens, if not hundreds of uses for this gadget around your home, workshop, office, and kitchen.

Works as advertised. Great price for a 12:1 ratio. I would buy this item again.

KINTREX IRT0421 Non-Contact Infrared Thermometer with Laser

It sounds very handy but practical use is not that satisfying. I tried it in cooking jam and had the temperature fluctuate all over the place, it did not help me. The same problem on finding the temperature of a pan when frying eggs. Also tried it on a heated oven and got more stable readings.

This is a product I purchased to keep an eye on my inside rear dual tire temps, on my motorhome. This thing works GREAT !! I find myself looking at things like my radiator temp, power steering unit, batteries, and on, and on. I recommend this to anyone needing to know critical temps on ANYTHING. It's also fun to screw around w/the cat !

Thanks the sender for the great service, I got this product 2 days earlier before the estimate day. This gun is good, fast reader w/ back light, auto-shut off, everything just like the introduction said, basically I used for my home improvement, so far after 1 wk, I still can't find any problem with it, but next thing I'll try to find out how accurate this gun is. The only thing I'm not quite agree with the introduction of this product is that they call it laser, I'd say it's Theremometer gun w/ Red Dot.
