Once calibrated, what is the accuracy of the thermometer (especially in the range of 140 to 190F?

For a beef medium well temperature of 165 degrees I have found that it is very accurate. I have compared to a analog thermometer and it was within 2 degrees each time. Not bad for an instant read. Hope this helps.

If the Thermometer is calibrated using the correct process it is 100% accurate.Watch this quick video http://cooknstuff.net/calibrate/

We us this a lot, and every time we have used, the meat has been perfect. I am very happy with this thermometer.

Pretty accurate, I have another digital probe thermometer and they are within just a couple degrees of each other.

Sorry, it took me a few days to get a good check of our thermometer. It has no screw on the back for adjustment, but it is an accurate read. Our air temp is down in the lower 20's F. We pulled the thermometer out of the barn at 24 degrees and stuck it in our compost pile, mostly horse bedding and in a minute, it went to 120 deg.F, about what we have observed by feel.

It goes from 150 degrees to 450 degrees in increments of 30. Don't know how accurate it is, don't use the temp. function.

Depends on why you're asking. These Deltatrak thermometers are often used in science room classes so they're already fairly reputable, this one was re-certified for kitchen use and is water and grease resistant. But if you want to get technical - From their website, accuracy is: 1.0F (-4F to 113F) 0.5C (-20C to 45C); otherwise 1.8F (1.0C) ***That's plenty accurate for kitchen use.

When you press and hold the button it will display 120, you can either hold it in or push it repeatedly until it reaches the desired temp. I never set mine above 140. I am not sure but i don't think you can start with cold liquids. also be sure your vehicle cigarette lighter is on when the ignition is off. most newer cars do not stay on unless you have a dedicated outlet for charging electronics.

I can't vouch for the accuracy of the temperature as I have not checked it with a thermometer or anything. But, the temp reading on the unit itself only fluxuates a degree or two during use and stays rock solid when it is sitting in its cradle.

I've noticed it's not good at measuring very hot surfaces. A normal hub of about 120 or less would definitely measure accurately, but as you get closer to it's maximum rated value of 300, it seems less accurate. So, technically, as you see the numbers go over 200 or so, it's already too hot, so an exact temp wouldn't matter as much, so you'll want to check your seals anyway.

The dial goes up to 390 degrees. I normally use it @ 375 and I've checked it with a separate thermometer and it was right on.

It's a 60 degree range with no adjustment as far as we could tell. 240 - 180, 210 - 150 etc depending on where you get the max temp set.

150-250 or something like that, don't remember exactly. You have to play with it a little bit to get it just right. Put the temp probe near radiator inlet, let it warm up to where you want it and then turn the knob down until it kicks on. take into account your thermostat temp.

The one that I have is almost exact. I checked it with another thermometer and the difference was 1 degree. I have had 2 of these and been pleased.

It was calibrated at the factory and I have checked its accuracy with thermostat and other thermometers. I am satisfied. I wish it was a little faster.

I don't know. It is set with numbers which I think starts at 125. I never needed precise temps for the veggies and fruits which is all I ever used it for.

Yep! But I have never checked if it is accurate. Last, the temperature is adjustable.

Temperature reading are subjective due to all of the variables. Here's what I did to answer your question. I positioned a thin piece (.02") of copper .75" from the front. I let the device run for 3 minutes for each setting. Using a Fluke IR thermometer, I got a measurement of 180 degrees on the low setting and a measurment of 226 on the high setting. I am happy with this purchase. I bought it for the sole purpose of shrinking shrink wrap, and it does a very good job.

I would say 32-150f? Basically just calibrate it at the same temperature you will be using it at. I like this unit a lot.
