Summary: Raytek Mini-Temp Thermometer
Comment: Great product and using it to measure the temperature on boat trailer bearings after stopping on road trips. Found out I have a general 5 degree differential between each side so now I know which side to keep an eye on in hot weather trips.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Works Great
Comment: As an over the road truck driver, I can use this to check the temperature of the freight I'm picking up without having to put holes in the product or packaging.
During transit, I can use it to check the temperature of the freight at the rear of the trailer.
Great product. Makes my life easier...:)

Customer Rating:
Summary: Very Useful Instrument
Comment: This product is essential to see if your air conditioning is working correctly. I use it (like the professionals) to monitor the temperature of the air coming out of the ventilation ducts. There are also other useful applications, like checking the refrigerator & freezer temp's.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Great tool for cooks, great toy for geeks
Comment: The Raytek Minitemp takes the guesswork out of a lot of kitchen tasks, and has a ton of other less practical (but fun) uses as well. Like most touchless thermometers, the device is simply an infrared detector. Solid objects radiate different wavelengths depending on their temperature [..]. By detecting the peak wavelength of infrared light emitted by an object, the thermometer can calculate its temperature. It is a completely passive sensor; the laser light is only to help you aim and has no effect on the measurement.
The thermometer is very accurate near room temperature; when I point it at a regular thermometer, they give me the exact same reading. When I point it at boiling water, it reads 208F. Close enough for cooking applications. The Minitemp has taken all the guesswork out of microwaving, grilling, and frying.
But mostly, I just point the thing at random things around the house for fun. Some of the "applications" I have used the Minitemp for:
- Finding where the cat has most recently been sleeping
- Seeing how cold the clouds are
- Checking the refrigerator/freezer for proper temperature
- Seeing how cold my feet are in the winter
- Figuring out when my XBox is about to explode
One thing the device should NOT be used for is measuring internal temperatures of meats. The thermometer reads only the surface temperature. You cannot take readings through a window, either; the thermometer will just read the glass. Also, the farther you are from the object you are measuring, the larger the spot is that you actually measure. For example, from 2 feet away, you are actually measuring the average temperature of a 2 inch circle, not just the laser spot.
Scores:
Accuracy: 8/10. Sufficient for household use.
Speed: 10/10. Truly instant readings that refresh continuously as you hold down the trigger.
Battery life: 10/10. A 9V battery has lasted through many months of liberal use, including as a laser pointer in a pinch.
Utility: 9/10. Near endless fun.
Physical construction: 9/10: Plastic but rugged and easy to clean. Easy-to-read LCD with a backlight.
Overall score: 46/50. 5 stars.

Editorial Reviews:

Large, easy-to-read backlit display! Give instant non-contact readings, just point and shoot. Unlimited automotive and other uses! Measure in Celsius or Fahrenheit with an ultra-fast response time. First number in distance to spot ratio indicates how far away you can be from target(in inches, to measure area of 1in. diameter circle). Operates on one 9V or NiCad battery.
