Pyrometer: does brand / price matter?
Posted: Mon Feb 04, 2013 4:43 am
Hi all,
I have a kiln with a digital controller. I suspect the controller's temperature readings have been a bit off, so I have decided to test it by using a digital pyrometer. Any suggestions of what brand to get? I am tempted to get something on the cheap side. Would that be a mistake? Should I get a pricey one instead?
I am considering this one -- partly because my kiln has 2 thermocouples. I could test both zones at the same time:
