I've fried 5 or 6 cheap polders and their clones. In the same 10 year
period, I've used my Fluke model 51 K-type thermocouple readout
constantly - needing only the occaisional battery change and the even
less occaisional probe repairs. Pros-Quick response, temps up to 2000F,
easily, built like a tank, can be calibrated somewhat. Cons- it doesn't
alarm, costs a bit, needs a sheath for use as a meat thermo.
