Review: Quality, Fast Temperature Sensing - I've been using this for a couple years now next to its big brother, the Javelin Pro. This Javelin is nice and compact, but still has all of the best features of the Pro. The probe is well protected when folded and is extremely easy to use since it turns on and is ready as soon as you unfold it. The temperature reading updates very quickly and is very precise. The battery lasts nearly forever too; I haven't needed to replace the battery for two years with reasonably frequent use. I've tried other thermometers and I can recommend you buy a Lavatools if you value a quality, durable tool. This one has even seen a few flames from open fire pit barbecues without any sign of damage. It will last you a long time and it is well worth the money.
Review: Reliable, accurate, and overall solid - The Lavatools PT12 Javelin Ultra Fast Thermometer is one of those tools we use constantly. We rely on it all the time to check temperatures on chicken, pork, and steaks on the grill, and it’s been consistently accurate and fast. Readings come up almost instantly, which makes cooking easier and helps avoid overcooking. The design is simple and practical. It folds up for easy storage, is easy to clean, and the display is bright, clear and easy to read. Battery life has been excellent — we’ve been using it regularly without needing frequent replacements. Reliable, accurate, and a good value. If you cook or grill often, this is a solid thermometer that just works.
