20 Best Infrared Thermometer For Pizza Oven (2022 Updated)

Does its job. I don’t believe it’s particularly accurate and there are no quoted figures for its accuracy but if it’s within 5 % that’s probably good enough to guage the oven temperature. I compared it with a colleagues which wasn’t supplied by Ooni but is clearly made by the same Chinese company.

The form, layout and mouldings are identical, there is just a slight difference in size and ithas a claimed maximum temperature of 200 degrees centigrade. However, when put to the test, it registered over 450 degrees.

The two models differed in their readings by about 25 degrees. No way of knowing which one was more correct. The point of all this is that his cost about £15! So if you’ve got a friend who’s got one from an alternative supplier you might save yourself a few quid by borrowing theirs and trying it out first.

Originally I didnt purchase the thermometer when I bought my Ooni because I thought it wasnt needed. After a few too many pizzas that the dough was not cooked all the way through and some research I bought this item.

I learned just because it says wait 15-20 mins to heat up, does not mean the stone is at the temp it needs to be. Which is why i was getting undercooked pizzas. 100% would recommend this item. Also! when you use it, a red laser will appear on the oven where you have it directed, make sure that red laser is hitting the pizza stone to get an accurate read.

I was just scanning the general oven not the stone, lesson learned :).

I purchased two 62 Max Plus models. First, I wanted to check their accuracy. In a controlled environment, using a calibrated precision reference thermometer, I determined that both IR thermometers were very close.

They both measured 1. 2 degrees Fahrenheit above the reference temperature. I made these tests at 75-degree room temperature where the temperature of the target was also 75 degrees. Each thermometer was triggered for 5 seconds before taking the reading.

I shielded my body heat from the thermometers. I took a reading every day, 2 times per day for 5 consecutive days. The results were always the same 1. 2 degrees above the reference temperature of 75 degrees.

This is within the spec of +- 2 degrees F. Impressive for a device at this price point. The thing that was the most impressive to me is the fact that they both were calibrated and performed exactly the same.

They were very solid – their readings did not fluctuate. Next, I walked around with them and simultaneously measured temperatures of various surfaces with varying temperature ranges. Both thermometers always agreed with each other giving exactly the same reading, right down to the tenth of a degree (note they increment in.

2 as opposed to. 1) Also impressive is the fact that I can shoot the same spot over and over again and receive the exact same reading. Most other IR thermometers do not have the stability that these do.

It is important that a measurement device is stable and consistent, especially when doing differential comparisons of surfaces. I’ve used Raytek and some other brands for years but the Flukes beat all of the other ones I have tried.

It was an interesting side-project testing their performance. I hope that others will find this information useful.

I bought 2 of this thermometer, fail to get the same reading nor do i get the accurate in any one. Have tried changing EMS, surfaces etc. it failed completely, Wanted to use it during covid times and bought it for the society of 600 apartments.

Residents raised questions on the thermal gun, it was embarassing. followed up with the vendor, only to hear unncessary excuses. I also tried to see various video to get the right reading. , The chinese ones are much better atleast i can get the right reading.

complete failure as reputed company.

TOTALLY DISAPPOINTED in the instructions that came with the unit. The online users manual is WAY better. I switched it from the default C to F easily after reading the online PDF. Also, calibrated it for human skin (EMS setting of 0.

88) and turned off the laser so I can use it to check family and friends temperatures. (Low Grade ~100F temps for COVID-19) Later on. I will be using this a lot for BBQ and foods as I bought a closed restaurant and plan on making “Bomb” central Texas style BBQ.

This will really help get things right and become one of my FAV tools. This package of Polish Sausages are thawing in my fridge. Really nice to know how they are coming along temperature wise.

I decided to get an infrared thermometer. I looked at a few competitors, but deep inside I know nothing is better than Fluke. A great thing about Ebay is – I was able to find a ‘like new’ gadget at half the price.

I downloaded a manual from Fluke for free, which quickly taught me a few things about using the tool that would be difficult to learn on my own. From now on I have no doubt about my HVAC system temps, BBQ grill/smoker, etc.

I can instantly measure things I never even considered before.

This thermometer is so convenient and much needed for our catering events. We are pleased that it can take cold as well as hot temperatures, beyond what a regular thermometer can do. It comes in a case, which is nice and also professional.

We have used it over and over again. I only gave it four stars because when it came, there were no instructions for use, only for putting in the battery. We figured it out eventually but believe that this should have come with usage instructions.

I would highly recommend this item and suggest every kitchen has one. It is so easy and efficient to use. Always clean. I usually write the horrible things I do not like about something but this is an extraordinary item that is very, very useful for all kinds of cooking.

Go buy it now. you will love it.

The thermometer is quite handy for checking the temperature of fry pans and such. It can also give some idea if meats are ready, but you’ll want to double check them with a probe thermometer, since IR only reads surface temperatures.

Still it is very handy to have. In terms of the build quality, It is solid, uses standard batteries, feels good in the handand the price is neither low nor high for what it is.

I needed something to help just which leaks from the outside were the worst so I can tackle improving insulation when it warms up. I didn’t need accuracy as much as relative measures of readings. This device worked great.

The readings seem accurate, since they agreed with the room thermostats when I took a reading beside the thermostat. The readings are are available instantly, and it’s very easy to use.

This item does excactly what it’s supposed to. I did notice the laser and what it’s reading seem to be about 1/2” off, the laser being higher than the item being read at distances greater than a foot away.

But the temperature it reads is pretty well spot on. I bought it to diagnose a catalytic converter that’s going bad. Glad I bought it!.

I purchased this unit for it not intended use. I am using it for surface temperatures of food, cooking surfaces and family members. I appreciate the guide that ThermoWorks placed on the web site relating to the measurement of surface temperatures on humans.

As I knew before, the measurements on humans is consistent and accurate but not the same as an internal reading. The Wand, uses an algorithm to approximate internal temperatures based on the surface reading.

This unit does not. One must approximate the internal human temperature by adding to the reading. Still, I am pleased with the unit. It is quick and easy to use. It appears to be reliable when used as directed.

Works great, easy and fast way to check your tune on your motor. Found 1 cylinder cooler then the others. 1 loose wire and fouled plug. quick fix without a lot of guess work.

I tested it the day it arrived. My temp seems very very close. I tried it on furnace, walls, outlets, myself, on stove, appliances, and vents. Ill find more things that wont break the tester. I dont recommend extreme cold, water may also ruin the device.

I used one of these on pipeline before. Surface check to paint and use a humidity checker with this device to bond paint correctly.

I had purchased this Temp gun originally to check aluminum which must be Pre-heated before preforming a repair. Im in the Auto body Repair Industry & work on a lot of Porsche / Bentley / Lamborghini etc.

Im a huge Milwaukee Advocate & have always been impressed with the overall aesthetics & quality of their tools. However, this one leaves me in question. Im sure there is more for me to learn altho I had double backed & reread about the performance expectations.

Long story short the tool worked well on more ferris metals/materials but seemed to act strange when determining heat signatures off the aluminum. Maybe not the rite tool for the job I had @ hand, But def.

good to have in the box!.

Good in a pinch. Feel its a little over priced because of the current pandemic. Took a few minutes to get the hang of using it but its easily workable. I like the large capacity memory function for 2 users.

I bought another one just in case this doesnt hold up to taking over 120 temps a day.

If you have a Blackstone, this is a must have! I got my Blackstone about a week ago and I kept burning my food, in order to try to figure out what I was doing wrong, I got this. It was nice to see what the hot zones on my Blackstone were so I could cook my food accordingly.

I haven’t used the probe yet, but it’s nice that it’s all in one instead of having to use two separate ones. Well worth it!.

Works great. Wish I had it at the beginning of winter. Now I know which of my windows need to be replaced and which need a bit of caulk.

This product is easy to use. The best thing about it is the laser and the benefit of having the display illuminated. I recommend thus product.

Put a pizza hack/griddle hack on my Green Mountain Jim Bowie and used this to regulate the temperature of the pizza stone. Worked perfectly!!

These tuners may be “economy priced”, but they perform way above their monetary cost. These tuners were installed on an old Kay guitar. a Really Old Kay Guitar, one of the Star-ter series, to boot. They have had their work cut out for them, being the most consistant element of the mods and tweaks this guitar has had to go through to become a enjoyable knock-around-the-House guitar.

On a decades old “economy priced” guitar, with it’s “economy priced” wood – as well as being housed in Washington State – a climate of extremes in humidity and temperature, these tunerTs are working like champs.

Highly Recommeded, for any project you have. Do them.

Overall: This thermometer does an accurate job with measuring temperatures. I have used this for lots of things thus far and it has worked like a charm! The Good: – The plastic on the grip is very nice to the tough.

It feels rubberized and allows for a firm grasp. – The power saving feature works very well. After using the thermometer it turns off quite quickly to save power; this is very efficient. – The interface is very user friendly! The buttons are all self explanatory and work well.

– The laser is accurate to the temperature sensor. This is obviously dependent on the distance from the object being recorded. – The start-up time on the device is very quick. This is beneficial since the power turns off so rapidly.

The Bad: – The plastic is not very tough. I was placing the battery and the plastic broke on the handle. This is a bummer just because it is broken, but without closely inspecting the device it would never be noticed.

I am very please with the thermometer and look forward to using it repeatedly in the future. I have used it for the following things: – Measuring the temperature of my aquariums. – Measuring the temperature of places in my lizard tank.

– Cooking temperatures. – Random things outside and inside **I received this product free for a honest and unbiased review** I hope this has been helpful!.

I bought this thermometer to use for handmade soap making and candle making. I like this thermometer because I don’t have to insert a thermometer into liquids to get a reading (which makes it a safer choice than a traditional metal thermometer).

What I don’t like about this thermometer is that it is not an instant-read thermometer. To be fair, I don’t know if an instant-read laser thermometer even exists. It will give you a quick reading, but you have to hold the trigger for awhile to get an accurate temperature.

I bought this thermometer because this brand was recommended by other soap makers. I don’t know if a more expensive model would give a quicker reading. When I tried to compare the different models before purchasing, the only major difference I could tell was how high or low of a temperature reading it would give.

The price was right and I am not disappointed that I bought it. If a quicker response time is desirable, I’d compare it with the more expensive models before buying.

I like this Thermometer, however it has malfunctioned once, causing me to bake too soon and burn some bread. That is once, out of about 100 times, so it’s about 99% reliable I guess! It can take abuse also and is generally just a nice tool! Great range of temperature as well.

Highly recommend!.

We purchased this tool to help us determine the internal temperature of our wood fired pizza oven. Although the oven came with an external thermometer, it was important for us to check the temp of the stone in different areas of the floor oven.

We like this item and use it every time we fire up the wood pizza oven. Handy to know for sure the temperature that we are cooking the pizzas at!.

Temp is right on accurate at specified distance.

Within a couple days of receiving the Powerbuilt Temperature Gun my home central air conditioner began to falter. I used the temperature gun to shoot the ceiling vents in several rooms to confirm my AC was blowing warm air.

I would normally get a ladder and clip a temperature gauge on the face of a vent to measure the AC air. My AC tech came out within an hour of calling and immediately fixed it. The temperature gun confirmed the vent air temperature is now ideal.

I also used the gun to determine the ceiling temperature in several rooms to check for possible insulation/ventilation issues. I highly recommend it for checking HVAC efficiency. Ever think that certain rooms are warmer/colder than others.

This gun will confirm it and point to potential problems. Use over an extended period of time will ultimately determine it’s quality and value. Right now it seems well designed and constructed.

Just received and tried out this remote reading temperature gun. Works as advertised and I will use it in my loss control work to identify HVAC systems operations, overheating motors and pumps and a variety of heat related potential workplace hazards.

This device may save my business clients considerable money in identifying problem equipment issues before they become severe.

I have used this and it seems to work fine, I have tried to check it and it is right on the money.

Really simple point and press thermometer. Simplest and cheapest in the range, I don’t think I would use the features of the more expensive versions.

I use the infrared thermometer with my 4-H Club and demonstrations. The ability to show the difference in temperature of light bulbs, comparing incandescent, florescent, CFL, and LED lights. We also use it in discussions about heat loss in homes and how much heat electronics put off.

It’s interesting to watch them see what they can find to measure temperature. Like a pot on the stove or something coming out of the microwave. By getting these tools in the hands of children and educating them on their uses creates lifetime users.

This tool is for anyone who needs a pyrometer. Additional accessories are available for measuring temperatures in all sorts of applications. Example, perfect for everything but measuring water pipe temperatures, the IR bounced off round or curved objects.

This meter does have a pipe clamp option that will measure temperature to 1 degree; but its expensive at another $300. Great for the needs we have in the shop and in house test room.

Easy website to navigate. Good prices. Seamless transaction. The item was on my door step in less that two days, which was unexpected, but put a huge smile on my face. Have done business with this company before, and will continue to do business with this company.

Thanks again!.

The Testo thermometer is not just a toy gun that shoots infrared beams and reads a number to you. This product is backed by several layers of validation. I had this themometer before, and it is highly reliable, even for an infrared device.

The dual “stereo” beam technology provides even greater accuracy that should not be taken for granted. Other IR thermometers involve huge guesswork on my part. This means bad calls and wasted time. Not the case with this one.

super

TranslateShow in original languageWer suchet der findet! Definitiv werde ich Einstechthermometer wieder bestellen und weiterempfehlen, da es bestens funktioniert. Auch in Sachen Verpackung und Lieferung ein flotter Shop.

So wünscht man sich das.

I use this mainly for getting accurate temperatures on my kettle smoker & Dutch Ovens when using coals as heat source. It’s accurate and works well. It’s new and I’ve only used it 4 x’s so far and that’s why I only gave it 4 stars.

I want to be fair in my review so I want to see how it holds up over longer use. I will re-evaluate it again to factor in long-term durability. So far I am pleased with it.

I bought this out of curiosity. Seems to work fine. I tried to take my temperature with it and it read low on my forehead. BUT it was right on when used against my armpit. One degree high pointed in my mouth.

(Compared to real ear med thermometer. ) I did not use the rectal area. lol This could be used as an emergency medical device. If you have a need for one, buy one. Sometimes you just gotta get something to see how it works.

Neat toy and you can use the laser to play with the cat. Ours will chase it around the room forever.

It does work, but it is hard to read in the sunlight and in dim light. Also if you are pointing to something at an awkward angle, it can be hard to see the readout at all without being a contortionist.

I used it to scan the interior and exterior walls, floors, ceilings and eaves looking for extra hot and extra cool locations. The L-shaped infrared laser thermometer I used to have (but lost) was easier to point the laser at awkward spots without having to twist you head and body to see the readout at the same time.

I looked for an L-shaped thermometer, but could not find one, so I tried this.
