[corE3105]

I'm simply looking for a thermometer that will tell the correct temperature. Any suggestions along with where to purchase it?

I ended up getting:

not to expensive has a probe as well it'll be in the Home Improvment section took me about 10minutes to find it till i gave in to asking!so just an FYI for those looking for any.

This is what i wrote from one of my old post, theres one at walmart too alot of people say.

The AcuRite digital thermometer w/ a probe is the way to go.
(The one MBrian posted would also be fine.)

Here's the AcuRite.

It shows two temps; the temp of the actual box, and the temp of the probe. Place the box on the cool side and the probe on the basking spot, and you're set. It also reads humidity, which should be 20-40% in a beardie enclosure. $12 at Walmart.

If you are willing to spend a bit more money, I highly recommend a tempgun.

Point it at something (from up close), press the button, and you get a temp reading. I have a PE-1 and I love it; I use it for measure the temps in Budo's enclosure, the snakes' enclosures, Budo's bath water, and the outdoors, when I'm thinking about whether or not to take Budo outside for a while.

I happen to look for a thermometer at Stop & Shop when I was buying a new light bulb and to my surprise I think I found exactly what I was looking for...

It's made from "Helping Hand" and only cost $7.99! I know it doesn't show the humidity but I still couldn't help but to buy one for each side of the tank.

Here's one off of Ebay & Reptile Supply is the 2nd one. Fluckers digital shows the temp & humid & it is accurate. Also, the price was right. I have two of them.

Cool! Looks very nice! The pic doesn't show the basking spot one, is it on the highest point of the rock or on the wall?
