Hide- The Exergen Temporal Scanner Thermometer has patented software that allows for a quick, easy temperature reading with a gentle stroke of your baby's forehead
- Perfect for use with newborns, infants, children, or adults
- Multi-step system ensuring accuracy:
- First it scans like a video camera, capturing naturally emitted infrared heat from the arterial blood supply at about 1000 “frames" per second, locking in the highest temperature it senses
- Second, a patented system measures the ambient temperature of the site where the temperature is being taken
- Finally, the patented "arterial heat balance" (AHB) software synthesizes the two separate readings to accurately determine and display body temperature
- As with any thermometer, taking temperatures properly is critical to obtaining accurate temperatures, so please read all instructions carefully and thoroughly before using this product
- Measures 2" L x 2" W x 7" H
- Imported

Ratings Snapshot
At five months old, my son was diagnosed the flu and developed pneumonia. During the weeks that managed his health, we visited several doctor's offices, diagnostic imaging centers, ERs, and eventually Children's Mercy. We tracked his feedings, medications, diapers, and of course, his temperature. The Braun thermometer was horribly inconsistent, giving us different temperature readings when measured even seconds apart. In frustration and exhaustion, I went to the pharmacy to seek a better option and took a chance on the Exergen brand because it was the brand used by my doctor's office. Its readings are consistent and in line with those at my doctor's office. And it saves a history of the last several readings you've collected so that when it's critical and you're sleep deprived, you can accurately report to your healthcare provider the history of your child's fluctuating temperature without flipping through stacks of scribbled notes. I cannot recommend this product enough. It is a must-have in my opinion and far out-performed the competition.
I am not one to write reviews but I do read them. However, I feel very strongly against this product. This is the worst thermometer. As a new mother I wanted something that would be accurate but less intrusive to get a quick temperature for my son. My son had been sick and we were using the Exergen thermometer to get a quick temperature. The thermometer never registered a temperature above 97.8 degrees. My husband and I decided to take a rectal temperature just to double check. our son had a fever of 100.8 which we doubled checked with both thermometers. Naeedless to say, this is extremely dangerous and concerning how 2 thermometers can read with such a difference in degrees. I don’t expect the thermometer to be perfects but a range from 97-100 is to much of a variance for a 5 month old and dangerous. Needless to say I will never purchase anything from this brand again.

I got this thermometer because it was the same one my doctor used. I really liked it at first but it kept saying my daughter’s temperature was fine when she felt like she had a fever. I double checked with a thermometer under her armpit and it was 2 degrees higher! It seems to consistently be 1-2 degrees under the actual temperature.

Way easier than wrangling a toddler to put a thermometer under an armpit. Also find to be quite accurate.

trying to get an accurate reading with this is difficult with a baby/toddler moving around. it also provides a different temperature every single scan, so it's completely inaccurate.

I usually have to take two readings the first reading, usually reads high or low and you have to make sure it is flush to the forehead or it won't read correctly. But it is way better than my Braun ear thermometer that I never get accurate reading from and paid twice as much for!

Accurate and so easy to use! I was skeptical at first because we've had horrible experiences with this type of thermometer in the past but the exergen really works and the price is so reasonable! I now recommend this thermometer to all of my family and friends!

This thermometer can be tricky to use. It works with accuracy when you do it right. I would not recommend for the price:

Could be user error since I don’t know what I’m doing but would get a different reading every time when practicing on myself. Same thing happened when practicing on babe and spouse. Not worth the risk if babe is sick.
