thermometers?

[dottyback]

I would like to see which thermometers people use in thier enclosures and incubators. I like the digital as most people would but find that some brands can be out by 2.c

Which brands do people swear by?

Imm shocked! no one uses thermometers?

when you say out by 2 deg Cel, what are you basing that on, i.e. comparing it to what?

i use digital thermometers, single probe reads 1.1 of a degree , never had a problem with them, also its the same ones sold in the pet stores for about $40 and i found them at bunnings for $10 so i bought one for every enclosure. these ones have the medal probe. end they all read the same when together so they must be accurate

I compare my digital, mercury and alcohol glass thermometers to a certified calibrated thermometer.

I use the in/outs from Dick Smiths. 50 bucks each but well worth it, the batteries last ages and they are very accurate. You's gets wot yous pays for I guess. Oh, one thing though, they are not the best in enclosures with sand substrate as the sand tends to jam up the buttons after a few months with animals that tend to dig or throw the sand around a bit.
