When a science experiment requires you to record temperature at 30 second intervals, having a digital probe thermometer to hand makes for a much calmer classroom! With the advantage of instant temperature display versus waiting for a traditional mercury thermometer to adjust, data collection is likely to be more accurate across the board.

The external probe is attached via a 914mm cord, which can be stored inside the unit when not in use. The unit itself boasts an array of useful features for easy operation; handy flip out stand, jumbo display, and a low battery indicator.

Wide range of measurement

This thermometer can measure a wide range of temperatures, from -50°C to +300°C (-58°F to +572°F).

Battery included

The necessary 1x AAA battery is included, meaning you can put this thermometer to the test straight away.

The potential applications in the classroom are wide-ranging. It’s most likely to serve as a useful tool for teaching measurement and how to gather and record accurate data. For example, it could be used to measure the temperature of ice bath water over time when testing the insulative properties of various materials.
