This is ridiculous. So many differing views and experiences on the temp guns. I don't see how they can be of any use to anyone when everyone says they need to be used differently. The Accurites are measuring what I expect the temps actually are. When I put my hand in there, it FEELS like 80 (or whatever temp the Accurite is reading). I feel like I should just chuck the temp gun.
The body of the Accurite is sitting just in front of the cool side hide, and the probe is sitting on top of the paper, inside the warm side hide. I have it pinned down with a small rock. She moves it around a bit but never enough to push it out of the hide. It works for me.
