Product Description
ThermoScan ear thermometer measures temperature within seconds from the ear. The ear is an accurate site to measure temperature because the eardrum shares blood supply with the temperature control area of the brain. Now you can take your baby's temperature with incredible accuracy in one second flat!. Measuring the infrared heat created by the eardrum and surrounding area, the Braun ThermoScan takes a total of eight different measurements and displays the highest reading. All readings are display in easy-to-read LCD format. A beep signals the end of the cycle and a memory holds the day's last eight readings for comparison. Lens filter is used for increased accuracy and is easily removed thanks to the lens filter ejector. Set includes: 1 protective cover, 21 lens filters and 2 lithium batteries.Product Features
* Improved accuracy and repeatability through a preheated probe tip and sensor* Probe cover detection system ensures precise infrared heat transfer for accurate temperatures
* Automatic probe cover eject button for quick and easy disposal of used probe covers
* Easy-to-read, LCD displays temperatures in Fahrenheit or Celsius

on 2010-02-23Yeah, so after I get it, I find out it's good for monitoring a feverto see if it's getting better or worse, but not so great for getting a baseline temp. I've shot this lazer beam thermometer into my childs ear 3 times in a row and gotten 3 different results. Now, if it's that touchy, then i'm going to say its probably not a good thing for your average user... I just want to know my kids temp... sheesh... back to the $6 Rite Aid brand in the mouth for me.

on 2009-12-05I liked this item at first. Then the readings began to vary wildly, so much so that I would measure my child temperature three times and average them because each reading could vary by up to three degrees. Then it stopped working altogether. Today, it only reads "POS" instead of displaying a temperature.
Since this thing is now bound for the landfill, I think Braun could improve the next model by making it biodegradable.
BTW, Brian Carey, who also reviews this, has his review posted about 300 times on multiple sites on the internet. Could he someone that is paid for reviews or is he really that passionate about Braun digital thermometers?!

on 2009-09-24I really love this thermometer except the fact that it is not accurate! I can take it 5 times in different ears, and get all completely different numbers. Then take rectal and have something altogether different!
other than that its very quick, quiet, and built well.
but i had to go with 1 star, since accuracy is this tools only job .. and it fails.

on 2009-04-21I prefer this ear thermometer to my other one. The need for a lens filter may turn off some buyers, but I like it for the fact that they keep the lens clean and ready to use. The case the thermometer snaps into holds the filters for easy to reach convenience.
The thermometer gets accurate readings quickly and easily. It only takes a second. My other ear thermometer took longer and I could never aim it just right. The other one also doesn't have a lens filter, which made it more inconvenient because I always had to make sure it was clean and then hunt down the alcohol to clean it with.
This thermometer is tops in my book. I highly recommend it.
