Fantastic Tool

- Inexpensive
- Accurate
- Easy to use

I picked up this Rosewill Infrared Thermometer to use in getting a general idea of how hot some hardware components get during use and testing. Such as motherboards, video cards, RAM, heatsinks, power supplies, hard drives, and even other devices such as routers. This way I can offer more information for better hardware reviews.

I tested the calibration on a few items of known temperature, and it was always either right on, or within .5 of a degree, perfect for what I bought it for.

The backlit LCD display is easy to red, and it's pretty easy to aim and get into tight spaces to get a reading. The fact that it only measures while holding the trigger, holds the reading when released, and remembers the last highest reading is very helpful.

Great product.

None so far.

Some reviews say it did not come with batteries, mine did.

Overall this is a fantastic tool and great for what I wanted. It's at a good price point and seems to work wonderfully.

Not much else to say, other than I would easily recommend this anyone looking for a good, inexpensive, infrared thermometer. Just be sure to read the specifications to make sure it will work properly in whatever environment or application you intend on using it in or for.

TOP CRITICAL REVIEW
Cheap, not so accurate

Cheap, nice build. nice display

Not too accurate.

Using this for a couple of weeks for all around temp taking of electronic projects. Nice Cheap and good ergo. I compared it to my friend's calibrated temp meter and it is off by about 5 degC. I was too much for me but couldnt return it anymore so I just use it to estimate temperature. If you require better accuracy look for something else.
