Sounds like you don't have the correct type of thermometre.Originally Posted by AiSuki
I would suggest finding something like an accurite... They will be battery powered with a digital read out.
The probes I was asking about will be a little knobby thing on a cord which attaches to the thermometre. I can send you a picture if you like.
The stick on and analogue varieties are very unreliable... Investing in a good digital thermometre will cost you between 15 and 50$... Much cheaper than rearranging heating supplies etc, and in the long run they can be a life saver![]()
