Weber 6491 Original Folding Pocket Thermometer

Pretty nice little unit that does what it says on the box.

As with any Weber product, you're paying a premium for the badge. That said, it works as expected and is backed with the usual Weber assurance of quality. The unit does feel a little plasticky (?) but seems sturdy enough.

It has the pleasant surprise of an integrated backlight (15 seconds before it shuts off) and you can 'pause' the reading (for example if you want to write it down) from changing/turning off for 30 seconds.

The major downside is that you're recommended to wait 15 seconds for the probe to stabilise on temperature. Not exactly an 'instant read' thermometer, but hopefully it has the accuracy to justify it.

Despite another reviewer's claims on the US Amazon site, this DOES come with a battery. It's tucked into a baggie with the instruction manual. That said, if you don't have a coin to open the back of the unit, you're screwed! :-)

All in all, a product worth considering if you too are looking for a digital thermometer you can put in your pocket without stabbing yourself in the leg...

Stopped working after two weeks...do not purchase. Temperature reading did not work. Batteries not included...amazon ad did not tell you this
