Infrared guns

Not sure if this is the right place but didn't know where to put it.

As my collection grows and I adjust my equipment to monitor my cage conditions I've decided I want to have an infrared gun as well. I have an infrared gun I use for work but it's not convenient or feasible to bring it and out of the truck all the time as inevitably I will forget it at home on a day I need it. Some reviews on guns has incredible inaccurate temps or wide margins of error. I'm looking for recommendations for an IR gun.

Any US site won't ship to Canada when there is a Canadian version, I had this problem with Under Armour. They wouldn't sell me an item of clothing that the Canadian site didn't have and couldn't order. They refused and couldn't give me a real answer. I can't buy it here but couldn't order it from there either.

Re: Infrared guns

Check e-bay, I paid less than $10 for mine w/free shipping, and that was a couple years ago.

Re: Infrared guns

I saw that Nubee on ebay for like $12 US. Nubee sounds too much like newbie to me though. ha. There's even a Milwaukee that looks like it will go for cheap.

Re: Infrared guns

I use this one (actually, the version with a laser pointer) Non-Contact Pocket Thermometer

According to the website, they do ship to Canada.

Re: Infrared guns

Also you may want to double check Amazon issue as I order things all the time which are shipped from Asian countries.

No clue what brand, no name on the gun itself. Just yellow and black, runs on 2 AAA batteries, still the same ones that came with it.
Here's a current auction for the same one: 2015 New Non Contact IR Infrared Digital Temperature Gun Thermometer Laser Point | eBay
