Hi guys,
I'm just testing out my new dimming thermostat and I'm getting really mixed results when comparing to my thermometer.
They seem to have a non linear relationship, the probes are within 1.5cm of each other but temps differ from 0-2 degrees Celsius. They both have a display accuracy of +/- 1 degree so I suppose its possible for one to be at +1 and one to be at -1, but how do I know which one is telling the truth? Are the analogue dial thermometer more accurate at stable temps?
What thermometers to people your for incubation as I assume you would want them telling the truth? I'm not using them for incubation but for a small enclosure that is empty at the moment.
So what do you use to calibrate your heating equipment?
Thanks!
