Is this really true: measures indoor temp. from -58&Acirc;&deg;F to 158&Acirc;&deg;F? Such a huge range? So I can use it in a freezer too, right?

I use this in a gun safe at about 70 deg. But I tested it from about +30 to about +100 degrees and it was right on. Maybe someone can help more.

I just read the label on mine. It doesn't indicate any temperature on my bottle. I will say that I used it in very cold temperatures once, and it didn't dry for days. If you are working on a car or something that is able to be moved, I'd at least do it in the garage.

I keep the unit set to 50 degrees but there is a considerable varience in the interior temperature. I monitor the inside temperature with a thermometer. When set to 50, the thermometer reads 55 degrees at the bottom of the unit.

60F. But the attached probe (short wire, tucked behind the unit, which could be extended away from the unit 2 inches at most) reports temperatures that are higher than ambient room temperature, even if I measure it a few inches away from the probe (maybe due to the internal heat of the unit influencing it a bit). So, I typically set the temperature to a little higher than "the temperature I want according to my body-temperature measuring infrared thermometer".

Probably, one year max at room temp. I bought six, I put 4 in the freezer, two in the refrig, I'm already on my second box, they are so good!

No idea. However, similar electronic devices I specify are rated to zero degrees C. It's inexpensive, simple, and I wouldn't hesitate to use it at low temps.

Our unit is in an air conditioned room kept at about 78 degrees. It keep a steady cold temp with no problems at a setting less than half way. If you were to put this in a hot garage, and set the temp setting colder, (like for your cold beer?), the unit would probably run most of the time. If the unit's size is Ok for you, it is worth giving a try, even if if lasts you a couple of years. We have a larger unit, an Amana 18ATM fridge-freezer combo in grey finish, in our garage here in Central Florida, and it has been doing well for 2 years now. Hope this helps.

not sure, but i would not buy this product again. There is no digital display or easy way to get and retain the temperature at 55 degrees. In fact after purchasing a separate thermometer, it is kind of hit or miss on the cooling knob. you don't set it to a temperature and it holds onto that temp. Like you take out a bottle or two and now it is colder??? If i had opened the box myself and set it up on my own, (instead I let my boys) i would have returned it right away.

I stuck it in the refrigerator and compared it to two other thermometers (which had exact same temperatures). The Taylor was off by 2 degrees. Since I thought it did not give an accurate temperature I put in the freezer........now it matches the other two thermometers in the freezer....probably the thermometer adjusted itself in the freezer.I've had a new refrigerator in the past & the freezer temperature's lowest reading was only 10 degrees above zero. Never ever lower than that. I say if your ice cream is rock hard in the freezer your refrigerator is ok.I'm a registered dietitian.

T/here are no specifications in the text. I guess I would not use it in the freezer as I am convinced it would devastate the instrument. Now if you want to keep tabs on humidity and temp in your fridge. I would imagine it would handle that ok.

I can't give you exact answers here but I can give you my observations. In the warm months, temperatures here are usually in the 80s to 90s and the fridge cannot keep it's cool. I have it set at 55 and see it climb to the low 60s on hot days. Right now the temp in the room with the fridge is 80.6 and the fridge is at 59 (set for 55). Hope that helps a little

This is from the manual. This may be a deal breaker for candy makers, as it is not real accurate at candy making temps. Also, it takes 15 seconds for an accurate reading. A lot of bad info here. My interpretation - 'NO' to using during cooking and 'NO' to dishwasher or immersion.Accuracy:±1°C (±1.8°F) from 0°C to 100°C (32°F to 212°F)±2°C (±3.6°F) from 100°C to 150°C (212°F to 302°F)±5°C (±9.0°F) from 150°C to 230°C (302°F to 446°F)

I have used it in the deep freeze and left it in there for months and never had a freezing problem,my freezer is set to 15 degrees Fahrenheit.

I start with 80 degrees, but once my indoor thermometer reach 70. I turn it off, I'm plenty warm in my living room.

I am currently using it in mine. I went away for two weeks over Christmas and turned my stove off, I didn't have any freezing problems. The temp was well below freezing the whole time.

I've used my Comark from around 60 degrees to temperatures around 350-360 (hot grease for fish). I've never used it to test below zero.

No dont use it inside Freezer compartment. batteries may Die. I only use it in normal refrigeration area and it works great .
