{"product_id":"zoo-med-reptitemp-infrared-thermometer","title":"Zoo Med ReptiTemp Infrared Thermometer","description":"\u003cp\u003eA point-and-click infrared thermometer reading surface temperature from −33 to 110°C. This measures something no dial gauge can: the temperature of the actual basking surface. Air temperature and surface temperature under a basking lamp differ substantially, and it is the surface the animal presses itself against, which is why a hot spot that reads fine on an air thermometer can still be too hot.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatures\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNon-contact surface reading\u003c\/strong\u003e — point and click, no probe.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e−33 to 110°C range.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMin\/max function.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePocket sized\u003c\/strong\u003e — quick to grab and check.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow to use it well\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCheck the basking surface, the cool end floor and the hide interior — three readings that tell you whether the gradient is real. Take readings after the lamp has been on for at least an hour; surfaces take time to come up. Remember it reads surfaces, not air: for ambient temperature you still want a probe thermometer.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePair with the \u003ca href=\"\/products\/zoo-med-digital-min-max-thermometer\"\u003eDigital Min\/Max Thermometer\u003c\/a\u003e for ambient readings.
