Default RE: Is this temp gun any good?

abram - there was a post about temp guns a few weeks back that ended up being several pages long. Do a search and you will find a wealth of info. The general concenses was that all temp guns will give a somewhat accurate reading, and that even the cheapest one is better than none at all. If you never plan to race, something like that would be just fine, just factor in a 10 degree error for safety, even though it may never be off more than that. If you do plan on racing, save a lil more and pick up something by raytek or snap on - they will cost much more to start, but 20 years later they will still be working, and still within .1 degree accuracy.
