Accurite malfunctioning!

I'm thinking of ditching the accurites as well and going with a temp gun since all three of mine are acting up (tried changing the batteries...no good)... :( So instead of buying three new accurites, I'd rather invest in the only thing I really need: a reliable way to measure temps (Racks and Houston-livin' have taken care of the humidity)!

Any recommendations on temp guns?

I have two accurites for my 2 snakes and I'm happy with them, I altered them so the unit is outside the cages and the probes all go in, and comparing them with any other weather station I've had my hands on, my temp and hudro readings on both units are spot on. I check them every month or two to be sure though.
