Hi all

Thanks for the feedback. I will look into the options and see what is available locally. The problem is that if the products are not supported locally and you pick up a problem (or need it calibrated) you are screwed.

Not really.

A thermopen will cost you 2-3 quid to post.

I find my bog standard HBS glass thermometer agrees within half a degree with my Thermapen. I like having the Termapen though, not that being calibrated it necessarily an indication of accuracy.
Best wishes

Just wish the exchange rate was better. At x20, it becomes quite pricey for a thermometer.

I doubt you'll have any issues with a therampen.

Just noticed they are down to £28 on eBay too!
