Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Thermoscan 1-second Read Thermometr , 1-second Read-outCustomer Review: Good thermometer but... Summary: 3 Stars
This is a good thermometer but with any digital device you have to allow for the variance that all digital devices have, Im sure if you read the specifications it will tell you. Also, rectal temps are good but you can get the exact same result by placing the thermometer in the armpit and holding the babys arm while it is being read. This can be done with a digital thermometer also, the kind the adults us.
Customer Review: Very inacurate themometer Summary: 1 Stars
I bought this thermometer for my new baby girl. However, when I tested it with her the degrees messured ranged wildly within a few minute period, from 97.1 to 99.8 so I could never trust it for fever indication. I'm not sure how anyone uses it without this problem. Maybe there is a wide range of manufacturing defects, as I have no idea how anyone uses the darn thing if all the units work like mine does!
Customer Review: Never had a problem Like I read others have had... Summary: 4 Stars
I'm reading these reviews and can't believe I have the same product. I have had NO problems with this thermometer. After my daughter had her 1st shots she caught a bad fever. It got so bad that I took her to the ER I told them what her temp was at home, and she had the same temp in the hospital. As for the battery, it won't die if you put it back in the pouch, because it turns off automatically.
Customer Review: Burns Batteries Summary: 2 Stars
The only reason I am giving this two stars is because it burns through batteries like crazy. I only used this about 4 times within a month and a half and had to replace the batteries. Now, it's been about a month since I replaced the batteries and I've only used it about 2 times. I went to use it the other day and the batteries are already dead, again. I am very disappointed with it!
Customer Review: Works Great, But... Summary: 4 Stars
We got this to use with our newborn before we knew that you're not supposed to use an ear thermometer with infants. We use it anyway, and it works great. It's easy to use and fast to take a temperature. The only drawback is that you have to use a new tip cover everytime, so you have to keep refills on hand. (You can't just wipe it with alcohol like you do a glass thermometer.)
