This Exo Terra infrared pocket thermometer works by measuring the temperature at a point it is pointed at.
Its main advantages are : – instant measurement of the temperature of the surface or object – ideal for monitoring the incubation mean temperature – easy to use – temperature is read in °F and °C – automatic self shut-off after 15 seconds – two AAA batteries included.
The Exo Terra Infrared Thermometer is a lightweight, pocket-sized point-and-click thermometer that instantly measures the temperature of a surface or object.
Point the Exo Terra infrared thermometer at any desired object and with the click of a button, the temperature will appear on the large, easy-to-read digital display.
The infrared thermometer can be used to determine the temperature of bathing sites, cave hides and shelters, hibernation temperatures, incubation environments, your reptile’s body temperature, or to measure temperatures “in the field” during field trips.
To determine temperature gradients, the infrared thermometer will measure the ambient temperature as you press and hold the button, once you release the button, the last measured temperature will be displayed.
A small LED guide light helps you measure the correct location and shows the diameter of the surface being measured.
It also allows you to scan difficult to measure locations with low light conditions, such as inside hiding caves, behind branches, under leaves, etc. The Exo Terra Infrared Thermometer is an essential tool for any reptile keeper or field herpetologist.
