Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

This device is probably the best single purchase that I have made on Amazon in my three-plus years of Prime membership. It functions wonderfully as a distance thermometer, shining a tiny red dot on what I'm measuring and, based on comparison with a thermoscan camera at work, is pretty accurate across a range of temperatures from 0°F up to about 400°F. But wait, there's more! It also serves as an AWESOME CAT AND DOG TOY! You already know that your pets are fascinated by that little red dot, and this thing DELIVERS! The button that turns on the device has a very soft click, barely perceptible, so it won't distract your faithful (or in the case of cats) persistent companions. The dot is bright and consistent, unlike other laser pointers on the market, and, (safety first) can be turned off so that fluffy doesn't get to curious about the dot suddenly appearing on the side of a pot of boiling water on the stove. It's powered by a 9V battery, and the manufacturer was kind enough to include one, but buy a pack, because you'll be using this thing on EVERYTHING! Is the chicken done? Laser thermometer. How cool is the A/C running? Laser thermometer. Is your house's brick construction holding in a lot of heat in the evening? Laser thermometer. Engine block not getting coolant flow? Laser thermometer. Wildfire approaching? Run like hell. Wildfire a safe distance downwind? Laser thermometer*. Buy this thing, and you'll have as much fun as we have at my house, I promise**. *Probably won't reliably measure the temperature of flames at a safe enough distance, so don't get too close to fire. **I'm not actually able to back this promise up, but I've had a blast with this thing. If you don't, you're probably just a boring person.
