Your cart is empty.The Lyman digital Thermometer is a fast and accurate way to check the temperature of your casting alloy. The long 6 inch probe will work with the largest casting furnaces and keeps your hand away from Molten lead. The large, easy to read display can be set for Fahrenheit or Celsius and also features a hold button to lock a reading on the display.

I use this to monitor the temperature of the metal in my lead pot used for bullet casting were temperature is critical in obtaining good results . It works very well and I am glad I bought it. Its a lot easier to use than the old, long probe, analog unit whose probe was broken off while on the bench. I call it a good buy for those who can't spend a ton of $$ on a more expensive melting system for some reason.

I use this in my Lee Production Pot IV to maintain a stable temperature whilst casting lead. I recommend to anyone who needs an affordable thermometer for this purpose.

I wanted a more accurate temp gauge to use when I am casting bullets for improved consistency of finish, so decided on this particular brand name that I am acquainted with for higher quality products. It does work well, reads instantly and allows me to regulate the temps accordingly for difference in smaller caliber and larger bullets. The temp probe cord could be a little longer to keep it further from the melt pot, but all is good and works as it should for my needs.

We purchased a small lead pot for work (building experimental lead acid batteries) that does not have a thermostat on it, and only has numbers 1-10. When we cast, we target a specific temperature to make sure we have enough working time but that it is not too hot as to cause issues over melting our plates. This seems to work quite well. It is quite close to what our thermal camera shows so we're confident using it when building our cells. Overall great buy at a solid price point. The only criticism is the port to connect the thermocouple to the device is already loose. If that had not happened, it would be a 5*

The display on the unit I received does not function properly. The center areas of the display do not work. In the attached photo is the display test when the power is turned on. You can see that several areas of the display are not working rendering the tool unusable. It should read 8888. Hopefully a replacement will work properly.

Havent tried it yet but it should be easier than my old dial thermometer method! We'll compare them the next time I cast lead.I bought it because of percieved accuracy of digitl electronic vs mechanical dial version. I melt a lot of lead (or at least I used to!) mainly from wheel weights. (when you can find any- I do have a pretty decent stash still!) Now a days, there's a lot of non lead wheel weights out there and lots of them are zinc. If you get any zinc in a batch of lead, you might as well toss it because the entire batch becomes the consistancy of overcooked oat meal! It will not flow now will it cast!Luckily, zinc melts at a higher temperature than lead and I keep the lead pot at good safe temerature and the zinc wont melty but float to the top and I skim it off like the dross and steel clips. This will help me maintain proper temperature control of the batch.I have no reason to believe this wont work properly but will update this review when I do break out the lead furnace! Lyman has always produced good stuff for us handloaders and I expect this gizmo to be up to Lyman's quality standards

C'est un super thermomètre. Il me permet de voir la température exacte pour couler mes balles en plomb pure et en mélange.Je recommande cette article aux couleurs de balles en plomb.

Conoscevo già il prodotto e quindi non ho avuto sorprese. E' conforme alle mie aspettative. D'altronde è da considerare che l'ho ricevuto ieri e sarebbe un po' difficile fare una valutazione corretta in così poco tempo
