BTMETER BT-1800 Non Contact Pyrometer High Temperature Infrared Thermometer Gun -58°F ~3272°F (-50~1800℃) DS 50:1 for Metal Melting Furnace Forge Kiln Tempe Tester-Blue(NOT for Human Temp)

The media could not be loaded.  Works ok, The display at the straight angle it is almost invisible. To see the indicators, you need to change the viewing angle. I can not understand the operation of the laser, when it turns on, the device turns off. The device is quite accurate for my needs. In general, I rate it positively.

I liked the style and price...Sadly it was broken upon arrival so i couldn't use it as i'd hoped to.

utilizo el producto para medir el calor de un horno de induccion

I have an independent geology lab (ie gold prospecting) and continually melt ore samples to determine any degree of value in precious metals. The tasks must be as expedient an accurate as possible. You can't melt quartz and feldspar without knowing how hot the samples are getting. This device will measure up to 3,000F, which is sufficient when looking for gold and silver. If you are looking for platinum groups, you will need a device that measures temperatures above 3,000F.When using it, always make sure you extrapolate "distance" from the source and add about 50 degrees for every inch or so to what you are reading.There are other devices that are more expensive but, this device, for the price, this is the best value.

Lo compré porque era el unico que pasaba de los 1500 C°, prometen 1800 C° y no me pasa de los 999... y la precisión un poco dudable. No se si estara defectuoso, pero des de luego una decepción.

I just unboxed the 1800 and went around testing it. My hand came back at 108ºF. My daughter across the room came back at 106ºF. The inside of my freezer came back at 41ºF (which is above freezing ... in case people don't know that) ... I went outside where it has been cloudy and 45ºF all day today. My cat's water bowl came back at 85ºF ... not likely. I am in the process of a return for this. But I am putting it out there that the accuracy is very suspect. I would have understood +/- 2º ... but this is crazy.The instructions were not super clear either. There is a mode button on the interface. I could not figure out what "mode" was to do. There is an F and C button which went back and forth between the measurement types. So then what does Mode do? I could not tell you because the instructions don't say. Pretty difficult to get excited about a product when it does not work well, and the instructions don't explain how to resolve issues very well either.I would not recommend the 1800 model.
