Temp Gun Question

[viper69]

With temp guns the laser is usually below what is actually taking the temp so if your taking a temp of something the reading isn't where the laser is but about an inch above depending on how far away your holding the gun.

Thanks, that's what I gathered. I don't understand why these companies don't make it so the laser is actually on the area you are measuring, seems rather logical to do THAT. Perhaps only on expensive models?
