I'm having a crisis of faith when it comes to the temperature of the water in my 90/40 aquarium. I now have 5 different thermometers/probes that are reading 5 entirely different temperatures. To be fair, two of the probes can be calibrated so I don't really count them. The new SICCE pump I just installed also has a temp probe and yes....reading completely different from anywhere else. These measurements are off by 1 to 2 degrees. I know from experience that most heaters fall within that range of accuracy ....not really concerned with that as I have a good controller and I'm using a SENEYE to monitor.
What I would like to find is the cheapest (not trying to be ironic) and accurate, pre-calibrated hand held thermometer so that I can calibrate the rest of my equipment. I have a Thermopen I use for cooking but it only reads single degrees. I need something that can read tenths.
Anyone have any suggestions?
