Product Description

The Reptile One Infrared Thermometer – Compact Handheld (-50°C to +260°C) is a convenient temperature-measuring tool designed to help reptile keepers check surface temperatures within terrariums and vivariums. Its compact handheld design makes it easy to use during routine enclosure checks.

With a broad temperature measurement range of -50°C to +260°C, this infrared thermometer allows you to take readings from suitable surfaces without direct contact. It can help you check basking areas, heated rocks, enclosure surfaces and other accessible points within a reptile habitat.
