ThermoPro TP01A Digital Meat Thermometer for Cooking Candle Liquid Deep Frying Oil Candy, Kitchen Food Instant Read Thermometer with Super Long Probe, Backlit, Lock Function

I’ve had this for 6.5 years now. No issues. Works great.

Love it! Easy to use and read.

This thermometer works great! It reads the same temperature as my other thermometer. I like how long it is, which allows for ease of use.It has been a little over a year since I purchased and the batteries are dead. I don't use the thermometer very often (maybe once every 2 months, so I assumed they would last longer. I am not sure if there was an issue with the thermometer not turning off when done or if the batteries only last this long.I am torn between repurchasing this devices or buying a pack of lr44h batteries. The price seems similar.

As described

I love the fact that I am getting the temp right and food is fully cooked thru and thru

Exactly what I wanted.

Favorite thermometer when cooking or smoking meats. The size allows for storage just about anywhere. Easy to read and accurate. Magnet function holds well to most items. Overall durable and functional.

The temperature comes up quickly and matches my other thermometers, so the important part works. The battery was dead within a few weeks. I suspect the automatic shutoff is not working properly. The two LR44 batteries tested at just over 1.2V, which is surprisingly high voltage for a "dead" 1.5 battery, especially considering the falloff curve for the LR44 cells. The alkaline battery is pretty terrible anyway with a high risk of leaking, and I've replaced with two equivalent silver oxide cells that so far are lasting longer. If these also run down before the Amazon return period it will be returned, because I don't want to keep replacing batteries almost as expensive as the thermometer itself!
