TIP: The online Bushwalk Inventory System can help bushwalkers with a variety of bushwalk planning tasks, including: Manage which items they take bushwalking so that they do not forget anything they might need, plan meals for their walks, and automatically compile food/fuel shopping lists (lists of consumables) required to make and cook the meals for each walk. It is particularly useful for planning for groups who share food or other items, but is also useful for individual walkers.

Accurate room thermometer, Taylor brand

Dear folks

I am looking to get an accurate room thermometer,,,,I read about Taylor brand since 1851 ( 150 years).

Any advice which model should I get ? Any one have tried this brand ?

Is a digital type good as a traditional one ?

Thanks

G'day zillah,
How accurate do you need this reading and if you don't mind me asking why :?:
I have three digital thermometers and they all read the same give or take .5 to 1 degree depending on where they are in the room.

I brought up a related topic on this thread. I got the Coghlans. Cant vouch for the accuracy as have nothing to compare it with but assume it is something like +/- 1 degree..something like that.

Hi folks

How accurate do you need this reading

+0.5 or - 0.5 is okay for me

and if you don't mind me asking why

Just matter of satisfaction I don't mind to pay couple of extra dollars to get an accurate one.


I got the Coghlans

I have seen your topic before I posted mine but your one isn't a wall mounted.
