It's perfect for larger backyard piles that require a longer and more heavy duty thermometer. With it's 5/16" diameter stem it's sure to hold up long-term and it's 24" length it can easily reach the center of larger piles. A digital PDF compost guide is included with your purchase to help you get started. The head of the thermometer features a glass lens that will not yellow over time and is hermetically sealed so you can leave it in the pile. This model features an adjustable calibration screw and 1 year limited warranty. This product is compatible with Reotemp brand FM-0 or FM-0S probe handles.

Review: Works great. - Using to test our compost pile temp. I heated up some water in a pot on the stove and tested against an alcohol thermometer, and a laser thermometer, and registered accurate within 2 degrees. Agree with other users, buy the additional cage as you don't want to be pushing or pulling on the dial to get it in and out of your compost pile and damage it.
Review: High quality and accurate. - I was concerned with the number of negative reviews from other buyers for this company...not this unit; referring to DOA and inaccurate units. Because of these reviews, I opted to spend a little more than the $22 model, and instead bought the "Pro" 24" unit...for $49, and I'm glad I did. Seems to be robust and of very high quality. I tested the accuracy in both boiling water, and freezing ice water. In the boiling water, it quickly ran up to the 200 degree reading, the highest reading on the scale of this unit. In the ice water, it ran down to exactly 32 degrees. I'll report back if it fails, as some have, but so far I couldn't be happier. Also, my first compost attempt, after two days, is reading 150 degrees plus. Woo hoo.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: how much of the tip is required for temperature reading? AKA can this give me a reading at 10 inches? 5 inches etc into a pile so I can see temps?**
A: The temperature sensitive portion is the last 2 inches at the tip of the pointed end of the probe. So you don't have to necessarily put the entire stem into the compost pile.

**Q: Is the therometer suppose to rattle? I recieved two thermometers both rattled as if something is shattered inside. Thanks.**
A: Hmm. You should not be hearing noises with a "pro" product. The innards are all metal so it's unlikely that something "shattered". I think you are hearing the sounds of of sloppy, careless, or maybe even incompetent assembly. But I think the device will still perform.

**Q: can i leave this in the ground through the winter to measure soil temperature**
A: Yes!  Mine stayed out all winter doing the same. No issues at all.

**Q: When and how should the adjustable calibration screw be used?**
A: I have several of these units and have never had to calibrate. If I need to, I'll get onto the manufacturer website.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ It works for compost piles!
*by T***S on April 8, 2024*

I use this regularly for my compost pile. It is long enough to get into the middle of my large and deep horse compost pile. It easy to read and I am able to determine exactly when I need to turn, wet, or leave the compost pile alone. Great product. The color coding is my favorite part and makes reading it that much easier.
