Very nice!. One day I will get a Fluke, but this morning this is what came in my box The Banggood $6.99 special. So far, I've tested it on my morning coffee and it measures 128F.
Yep, I got the same one. Or mightta been GB instead of BG, forgot. No complaints.
Ugh, gimme good ol’ fashioned flaming-hot crotch-scorching coffee anyday, rather than the tepid crotch-safe coffee everyone has (takeout or at-home) nowadays.
Had to look at GB and BG to remember where I got it from, but man, I can't take the scorching hot coffee anymore. Don't like it room temps either. After doing a few tests with my IR thermometer, 121F feels just about right
This is why I spent $86.35. I’m pretty sure it’s way overkill for my needs. That said, I like having the top, or near the top products. I could have bought the 62 Max Plus, but I thought the difference in price wasn’t worth it.
Cool. We think the same on alot of things. My dad owned a hardware store, so I grew up with the best tools he sold. He really knew his stuff. I guess it rubbed off on me. BTW, I’ll be 66 years old May 2nd.
Turning 60 soon but I still ride motocross bikes so at least I feel young! Yeah, you just can't beat quality tools in the long run. Your lucky with your dad owning a hardware store, many peoples dream really.
good thing you got the 5Ah batts, the one on the saw wouldn’t last long.
I got a couple 6Ah FexVolt ones from Amazon for $150 some time ago.
Last much better in my circular saw, vacuum and weedwhacker.
I like the yellow n black.
sorry to say, but IR temps are never accurate anyway
materials all have different IR emission constants
metal, water, ceramic, food, ice, skin - ALL DIFFERENT
found out the hard way
well not really but after i got an IR meter, i wondered why boiling water was never 212
the outside of a glass bowl or cup, with boiling water would be different from the water itself
, a coffee cup would read something else still
not just 1 or 2 degrees but for boiling water, it is like 30 deg F difference!
anyway
the meter does not know what material you are trying to read, either
Happy 75th! Anyway, my drill came with (2) 2 amp hour batteries. They last long enough for my needs. I figured the 5 amp hour batteries will be a better choice since I have to repair my fence which will require a lot of cutting. I paid $107.99 for 2 brand new genuine Dewalts.
You got the 63 max plus. Mine is just the 63 max. Yours is more feature rich, and slightly more accurate than mine.
BTW, I downloaded Fluke’s Emissivity Chart… Thanks!
