It measures by the means of infrared radiation intensity... Rather easy to screw up these measurements by stray light and etc. Point it to the sky - it can be -20 degrees C in the same moment.

As it is an infrared thermometer I think it could be affected by sunlight, test pointing it to a shadow.. it takes the air temp

The two I orderd 26/5 is NOT 180C!!!!
It´s the same 110C as the "old" one.
Why has HK suddenly changed the specification when it´s not a new version they sell....
I´m going to email support right now!

When you point it at an object from a distance, infrared light from other sources can get to the sensor. When i measure my battery packs or esc i just tought them with the device.

just for curiosity.... has anyone ever used 1 to measure body temperature if the pilot has a fever? let's say from to much flying and sun exposure....hmmm...

Well, usually it's the flight attendant that gets the fever when she brings my inflight dinner. Shall I use the thermometer on her next time?
PS: temperature cannot be 'measured'. It can only be indicated on a thermometer, just like a watch can only indicate time because time like temperature is intangible.
OK, enough elementary physics...
Lets get back to the wonders of inflight meals...

I MUST BE MAKE A MISTAKE: when I measure (this word could be wrong grammatically) an ice cube and boiling water, the led showed -13degree and 70degree Celcius respectively. My body heat showed between 35-36degree C which is normal I think.
Response will be very appreciated. Thank all you guyz.
