More thermometers are coming out soon. Nice to see the Raytek thermometers in use in our building to check the temperature when we’ve been having A/C issues.
Amazon has a nice sale going on today – 40% off a Raytek Thermometer.
Nice article in the most recent popular mechanics on Raytek Thermometers:
So about three times a day, I went through the basement and took a number of readings with the Raytek. Because it can accurately read temperature from a distance, I could even check the pipes in the crawlspace.

How to Make a Thermometer
By James Hunt
A thermometer is an instrument that measures the temperature. Depending on what country you live in, temperature is measured either in a scale called Fahrenheit or Celsius (sometimes called Centigrade). There are thermometers for food, humans, and the weather. You can even make a thermometer yourself, it’s simple.
Here’s what you’ll need:
- Water (plain old tap water will do just fine for this experiment.)
- Rubbing alcohol
- 1 clear plastic bottle with a narrow neck
- Food coloring in your choice of color
- See-through plastic drinking straw
- Modeling clay.
