Summary: Please don't waste your time with this device ...
Comment:
I purchased this Temporal Thermometer as a present for my wife, who is an ER RN is the Los Angeles area. We had been looking for about a week for a dependable and consistent thermometer for our child when I broke down a few days before her birthday and got this.
When she saw the device she was pretty unhappy about it as she had been forced for over a week to use these devices at her work, which proved to be more trouble and a larger headache in the institutional setting then they were worth. All of the Temporal Thermometers were tossed into a box and collected up and either most likely returned for a credit or tossed. Time is of the essence.
But I was intrigued and opened the package anyway and we experimented and test-ran this thermometer for about a month side by side with another thermometer, the Braun Thermoscan. I saw exactly the same results that she dealt with at her work. Here are some examples of the inconsistency:
1. Have a temperature or a fever? Error results or repeated inaccurate readings by more than one-point-five and sometime two-point-five degrees, which is huge.
2. Moisture on forehead ... from the fever ...? Error results or repeated inaccurate readings.
3. Head angle and forehead shape will dictate whether or not the device will even work.
4. Different degrees register on different portions of the same forehead.
5. Different degrees register with darker skin(!) That's the first time for that one.
Some of the reviews tell you that you need to practice with the device and develop a technique, which is absolutely absurd. What? You're supposed to go around the neighborhood interfering with other parents when their kids are sick to work on your 'technique'? Gimme a break, please. It's a thermometer , it should work and work consistently. Unfortunately it doesn't do what it's supposed to do and therefore Exergen should take this product back to the drawing board and also remove the labeling on the front about how it's the most accurate, which it is very clearly not.
I openly suspect a lot of these positive five-star reviews of this product have been placed by people directly related with this company as an ad effort. And coming from a long-time review on Amazon, this kind of thing is more rampant than you might think.
Don't buy this, getting your money back will be harder then taking a temp.

Summary: The best thermometer I've ever tried
Comment: I buy thermometers regularly because they get lost in the house and I often end up hating the new ones I buy. I bought this thermometer at the drugstore in May for almost a hundred dollars! It's shocking to see the huge price drop. Regardless, it's worth it. It's accurate and consistent. The thermometers that take the temperature in your ear constantly change their reading. This is not the case here. To test accuracy, I checked my temperature even when healthy and compared it to the good old-fashioned thermometers that just take longer to give a read out than I prefer.

The TemporalScanner Thermometer is a totally non-invasive system with advanced infrared technology providing maximum ease of use with quick, consistently accurate measurements. Advanced, patented technology measures temperatures with a gentle stroke across the forehead. The TemporalScanner Thermometer has been clinically tested for accuracy compared to rectal thermometers and temperature sensors inserted in the heart during course of patient treatment and accepted for use in major hospitals, making it the ideal thermometer for use with newborns, infants, children or adults. The TemporalScanner has patented software, providing arterial heat balance. This unique process determines temperature by accurately measuring the balance between the tissues warming from arterial blood and tissues cooling (warming) caused by heat loss (gain) to the environment.
