Floating Water Thermometer to Easily Read Water Temperature - Great for as a ...

seems very accurate, so far. the tie to attach to float etc, not very strong, I tied an extra tie on there just to be sure it held.

I checked this against a certified thermometer (accurate to 0.1C) and it read 0.5C out. This is good enough for most purposes, but as I was looking for a thermometer I could use to measure sea temperature accurately I discovered that it is possible to adjust it (if you are keen) by removing the float (which is held by a large blob of hot melt glue in the top), separating the two halves, picking out the glue that holds the glass thermometer in place and then sliding it until it reads correctly before applying a big blob of Evo Stick. Without the float it makes a very compact thermometer that I can carry in my swimming bag. I prefer this thermometer to the Intex one, which I also bought, as this has a scale that is quite a bit longer and markings that are easier to read accurately. All a bit keen, I know, but I wanted to be able to say to the Southwold lifeguard folk that it was exact, and demonstrate that the temperatures chalked on their notice board were wildly out (they insisted the sea never goes above 18 but this year it reached 23C at Southwold and Felixstowe!) I've finally won my battle with them and got them to admit that they were guessing (one of them joked that lower figures kept people out of the water and made life easier for them!). On my last visit they proudly showed me that they had now bought a thermometer and were actually measuring regularly! True sea temperatures at the beach are hard to find, as the figures given by the Met office etc are usually made in mid ocean and are not representative of temperatures at the beach which are always quite a bit warmer, even if you swim out quite a way.

It does the job of checking sea water temperature- i like to know it when i am swimming

Good value for money. Using it for our cold water swimming.

Broke on second swim....thermometer fell off...waste of money , don't purchase. Very disappointed.

I jumped on the ice bath bandwagon and bought this to tell me the temp. Works fine, but not always accurate.

Bought for hot-tub. Easy to read and acurate against other thermometers.

Arrived quickly- looks fine only used it once so far.

Estetyczny dobrze wykonany. Przedziałka mogła by być bardziej precyzyjna.

Den mäter temperaturen bra! Men den känns skör i materialet. Öglan där den inplastade vajern är fäst känns klen. Plasten runt vajern har en svetsning som inte håller för något kraftigare ryck. Har förstärkt med egen tråd.

Great value and service. Arrived on time as promised!

Lo consiglio perchè è piccolo, quindi pratico, è preciso ed economico. E' comprensivo del laccetto per legarlo ad un punto ed evitare che si sposti in punti della piscina non raggiungibili senza tuffarsi in acqua.

Super Teil, hab‘s für den Teich gekauft. Macht was es soll.
