Review: Quality, Fast Temperature Sensing - I've been using this for a couple years now next to its big brother, the Javelin Pro. This Javelin is nice and compact, but still has all of the best features of the Pro. The probe is well protected when folded and is extremely easy to use since it turns on and is ready as soon as you unfold it. The temperature reading updates very quickly and is very precise. The battery lasts nearly forever too; I haven't needed to replace the battery for two years with reasonably frequent use. I've tried other thermometers and I can recommend you buy a Lavatools if you value a quality, durable tool. This one has even seen a few flames from open fire pit barbecues without any sign of damage. It will last you a long time and it is well worth the money.
Review: Fast, accurate, and easy to store - Instant temperature readings, simple to use, and easy to clean. The built-in magnet is a great touch — I store it on the side of my fridge, so it’s always within reach and never cluttering a drawer. Solid, reliable, and well designed.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How long is the probe?  Can it easily reach in the center of a big roast or a loaf of bread?**
A: From the description on the Amazon website page....the probe is 2.8" long. I find that more than adequate to reach the center of most any cut of meat I cook.

**Q: I want to brew green teas (160-200F water typically). Can anyone verify how quickly and accurately it works in this range? Thanks!**
A: these thermometers will typically work up to about 400 F, so if you want to check the temperature of cooking oil for frying, you can do that.  Thermapens do,  double check the specs on this.

**Q: can you calibrate this thermometer**
A: No, and ours is reading +110° after a couple of years.

**Q: It looks like a pocketknife.  Does the probe go in and out like a pocketknife?**
A: Yes just folds up like a pocket knife.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good meat thermometer
*by H***R on August 25, 2025*

This is my 4th one. 2 got dropped too many times. One given as a gift, and then this one. It's fast, it's accurate, and the price is great. I use it for determining meat temperature, so I don't need to be super precise. I don't care if it's .5 degree over 165, just need to know if it's 165. I use it pretty much daily, but I don't require extreme accuracy.
