iHealth No-Touch Forehead Thermometer for Adults, Babies, Kids PT3 Black

Works like a charm. I needed to replace a faulty oral thermometer and this No-touch device fit the bill perfectly. Accurate and responsive, it's a joy in simplicity to use.

This iHealth no touch forehead thermometer has been so convenient to have with kids, especially when they are sick and finally sleeping. I can quickly check their temperature without having to wake them up or make them uncomfortable. It is very straightforward to use. Just insert the batteries, position it near the middle of the forehead, and take the temperature. The included pictures also make the directions easy to understand. I appreciate that it comes with batteries, so it is ready to use right away. The thermometer is small and portable enough to bring along when traveling or keep nearby at home. The readings have seemed consistent and accurate based on my experience using it when my children are sick. Overall, it is simple, quick, and convenient, which is exactly what I want from a thermometer when caring for sick kids.

I have a baby and a toddler in my house who have to go to daycare and get sick often because of it. For that reason, I already have one thermometer that reads by touching and dragging across the forehead for a reading. At the time I thought this was the best option for little ones but it’s readings are so different each time, even when I use it back to back (from 99.5-104.2 sometimes!) Those are vastly different and one scarier than the other! So I decided to get another thermometer. I usually buy products based off of reviews. Honestly there were mixed reviews on this one. But you always have to take reviews with a grain of salt meaning that most people won’t leave a review unless they’re upset or super love it. And many people may love a product but don’t want to take the time to leave a review beyond giving it a star-rating. But I kept doing research on other thermometers and found they all had mixed reviews. So I took a chance on this one because of the features offered. I loved that it’s touchless (thinking Covid). I loved that it didn’t beep when it was complete (thinking of a sleeping child). (It even comes with its own batteries-it’s the small things right?) But most importantly are the readings. Right now my children are healthy. When I tried it out on them, not only was it consistent, but it was accurate! And it read differently on each of us, again all in the normal realm but it changed between each of us but kept the same reading as the last time that forehead was scanned. So right now, this product has my full confidence. I’ll update this post if I find otherwise. I would recommend trying this one out if you need a thermometer for a young child or just need a good touchless thermometer for Covid reasons.

This thermometer works great! It's easy to use and has a quick read. It's accurate and very portable. Then display is clear and easy to read. The only issue I had was being able to get the back off to be able to get the batteries in. People with arthritis or carpal tunnel issues as myself may find difficulty with just that. Other than that, it's great.

The iHealth PT3 thermometer works amazingly well. It gives an accurate reading in literally one second with just a single button press. What I love most is the gentle vibration feedback instead of loud, annoying beeps—perfect for taking temperatures at night without disturbing anyone. The black sleek design looks great, and the LED display is bright and very easy to read. It's fast, hygienic (no-touch), and super simple for the whole family to use. Totally worth it!

I chose a Top Rated Consumer Approved No Touch Digital Thermometer. 117,000 Consumers Rated this Thermometer a Positive Review, a 4.6 out of 5 Stars. Overall Consumer Rating Group Size was Accomplished by Almost 121,000 Consumers. The majority of its Ratings was very Positive. I also purchased an Oral Under the Tongue Thermometer, which was also Highly Approved by Consumers (Over 70,000 Consumer Rated). The No Touch Thermometer was very quick in obtaining my Forehead Temperature. Tested the Thermometer 50 times over a 2 week period. All temperatures were obtained within a 1 to 2 second time frame and was lightning fast. I also Used my New Oral Thermometer as a Backup Reference. Both the No Touch Digital Thermometer and the Oral Digital Thermometer were within .1 of each other. In fact, most of the readings compared with each other were Exactly the same. I will admit I studied at least 20 various Digital Thermometers over a 3 month time frame. All have in common the same complaints, They take too long to display a reading, They are Not Accurate, They Quit Working after a Couple of Months. My Reasoning States, Find any item you want to purchase and then look at the Largest Consumer Group that Rated the Desired Item. Discover What Ratings they gave the Item. Read the Good and Bad Reviews on the item. In the End, as in my case, 117,000 Consumers Out of Almost 121,000 Consumers, Rated the Thermometer 5 Stars, I feel the Product is Probably Worth Owning and Trustworthy. Of Course Life as Well as Consumer Products can be Lemons. If this Happens to you, exchange for another product. So far the Thermometer is Functioning Perfect! I am Very Happy with my Purchase Overall!

Read all the instructions and used as directed. Readings in someone with a fever were both inaccurate and imprecise (gave a medically dangerous underestimate). Readings in someone with no fever were closer to the truth (moderate overestimate). I also checked it against results from a proven accurate thermometer that is harder to use. Foreheads often are not a good reflection of core temperature (only tympanic and rectal temps are good reflections of core temperature). So, I wasn't expecting perfection but I figured the company had done it's due diligence and was marketing a no touch forehead thermometer because it worked (as in the technology employed had advanced to the point that is was sufficiently accurate for medical decision-making purposes). I would have been happy if the thermometer read a degree lower than core temp but at least did so reliably. If it read 1 degree lower all the time because skin is cooler I would be able to factor that in to my assessment of whether someone needs medical attention or to stay home from social gatherings. However, it gave me wildly different temperature readings when used on the same very feverish person, at the same angle and distance in the same lighting taken within seconds of each other. I compared it against a proven accurate household utility thermometer that reads packed ice water correctly as 32F (0 Celsius) and full boil water as 212F (100 Celsius) very consistently as well as correctly measuring a mixture of equal parts of the two. I also compared it to another older oral digital medical thermometer that has tolerable but less impressive accuracy (had to use armpit and oral for these because the utility thermometer has a pointy metal tip that is unsuitable for any other body part - so these should be higher but not 2.5-3 degrees difference). Here is a list of some of the readings: Vetted Thermometer: 103.6 This product: 101.8 Vetted Thermometer: 104.2 This product: 100.4 (almost categorizing a serious fever as a non fever!) Vetted Thermometer: 97.5 This product: 98.6 Vetted Thermometer: 97.2 This product: 98.7 Vetted Thermometer: 97.6 This product: 99.6 Vetted Thermometer: 98.0 This product: Lo error I have no use for a thermometer that is only modestly accurate when someone doesn't have a fever and wildly inaccurate when someone does have a fever. Errors ranged from a minimum of 1 degree to almost 3 degrees. What use is that? This is not the sort of thing any person wants to be dealing with when they, their children or spouse is very sick. I see by review analysis of this product that "8,572 customers mention "Accuracy" 5,233 positive 3,339 negative" How on Earth does a thermometer that is found to be inaccurate by nearly 40% of users have a product rating over 4 stars? Some even commented that "it works well but isn't accurate" !!! An inaccurate thermometer works about as "well" as a car that doesn't move or a cell phone that only dials random numbers! Perhaps it is a severe quality control issue and half of them really do work better but there are many reviews from those who tried replacements of this product with no luck as well. If you do buy it, I'd suggest testing it out on both ends of its functional temperature range (around 97 degrees to 107 degrees) within 30 days. I bought it as a suggested item because I knew I should have another in the house and can't even return it because we didn't have any fevers to test it on for 2 months and the return window closed. Really, I would suggest finding a legit tympanic thermometer and just embrace the annoyance of probe covers because it may not even be possible to get a truly valid reading using infra-red on a feverish forehead that is actively engaged in evaporative cooling. In contrast, tympanic membranes don't sweat and the ear canal limits cooling air flow while the probe is inserted; also, there is less interference from possible environmental infra-red light interference. So there are at least three features which would help lead to a more accurate reading using the tympanic method. (some tympanic models require probe covers but if you don't like this type of plastic waste you can just reuse a probe cover after cleaning it with alcohol & write individuals initials on the base of the cover).

Purchased several of these for family members and employees during Covid. Thermometer is light-weight, no-contact, easy to use, safe (no glass to break like the old-fashioned types), and provides fast and reliable readings.

Gran termómetro infrarrojo. Rápido, preciso y ligero, facilísimo de usar con una mano, discreto para realizar mediciones por la noche sin molestar a los pacientes, nada de ruidos innecesarios ni pantallas excesivamente brillantes.

Les thermomètres à distance sont très pratiques, notamment lorsque nous avons des enfants en bas âge. Certes il y a parfois de bonnes différences de température entre un thermomètre à distance (celui-ci ne faisant pas exception) et un thermomètre classique. En réalité, tout dépends de l’objectif que vous donnez à votre achat : pour moi, cela me permettait de vérifier rapidement la température approximative de mon enfant sans le déshabiller. Nuit et jour à tout instant et sans le réveiller ou l’énerver. Par contre, il faut garder en tête qu’il s’agit d’une température approximative : en cas de doute, l’utilisation d’un thermomètre classique est indispensable, mais cela me permettait au moins d’avoir une idée.

Il mio amatissimo termometro Xiaomi Mijia si è rotto la settimana scorsa dopo una decina di anni, ed ero a lutto. Dopo un'indagine, ho scoperto che Xiaomi all'epoca aveva fatto una partnership con iHealth, e questo che recensisco è il modello che cercavo, ma migliorato. Ho letto tutte le recensioni e, come al solito, molti danno un punteggio basso ai prodotti perché non ne hanno letto le istruzioni, o non ne hanno capito il funzionamento, o non gli piace l'estetica, o il corriere gli ha morso il cane. 1. Le misurazioni dei termometri da ascella, da bocca, da orecchio, da tetto, e a rilevazione degli infrarossi in linea generale danno risultati diversi tra loro. È normale. 2. Per sapere se si ha davvero la febbre, cioè se la nostra temperatura sia effettivamente più alta della nostra temperatura di quando non siamo malati, occorre misurarla quando siamo "sani" col termometro che intenderemo usare in seguito, di qualsiasi tipo esso sia (a contatto, auricolare, rettale, o ad infrarossi). La temperatura rilevata da "sani" sarà un buon termine di paragone da usare in futuro per sapere se avremo la febbre (occorre sempre considerare che la temperatura varia durante la giornata: più bassa al mattino, più alta la sera, ed è normale). Questo vale anche per il termometro iHealth. 3. Temperatura ambientale: Per prendere la temperatura con questo modello occorre lasciarlo fuori dalla scatola nello stesso ambiente dove c'è il soggetto del quale dobbiamo misurare la temperatura per 3 minuti (e poi va rimesso nella scatola, per farlo durare nel tempo e perché continui a funzionare correttamente; umido e polvere fanno sballare le letture). Nota: quando le pile sono scariche le letture sballano. Se lascerete le pile per anni all'interno, ne uscirà acido che rovinerà il termometro, come capitato a me. Quindi: se non lo usate, togliete le pile, lasciatelo in scatola in un cassetto. 4. Distanza di rilevazione: max 2 cm dalla fronte, cioè vicino ma SENZA TOCCARE MAI LA FRONTE (mettete un dito di piatto sulla fronte: quella è la distanza giusta) 5. Posizione della rilevazione: dalla linea ideale che unisce le sopracciglia scegliete il centro tra gli occhi e poi salite di 3 cm, dove la fronte è piatta. Chi misura la temperatura sulle tempie, e poi lascia pure una recensione negativa perché secondo lui il termometro non funziona, è uno sciocchino che andrebbe percosso col termometro sulle gengive, perché sulle tempie affiorano arterie e vene, ed ovviamente la temperatura rilevata sarà SEMPRE alta senza che però ci sia febbre, e sarà molto più alta della temperatura rilevata nel punto giusto. La temperatura va misurata solamente nel punto indicato dalle istruzioni. (In realtà, una volta capito il meccanismo, si potrebbe anche rilevare la temperatura sulla tempia in un giorno nel quale stiamo bene, ed usare quello come termine di paragone per le successive rilevazioni, ma è meglio attenersi alle istruzioni, che hanno il loro motivo di esistere). 5. Area da misurare deve essere: 5.1 SENZA capelli: Se avete bimbi, basterà soffiare sulla fronte e la magia si compirà. 5.2 NON UNTA, NÉ SUDATA: quindi, se necessario, usate un panno umido per lavare/asciugare il grasso/sudore, e poi attendete qualche minuto prima di misurare, altrimenti l'acqua in evaporazione farà scendere la temperatura della fronte (a causa del primo principio della termodinamica studiato a scuola). 6. Costanza della misurazione: in passato i termometri ad infrarossi misuravano una temperatura diversa ad ogni minima inclinazione causata da mani ballerine. Questo termometro è molto migliore, ma chi ha il Parkinson è meglio che chieda a qualcun altro di misurare la temperatura, altrimenti poi ci ritroviamo altre geniali recensioni negative. Per eliminare le incertezze basterà fare più rilevazioni sullo stesso punto in rapida successione. In ogni caso, preoccuparsi per i decimi è da ipocondriaci (tranne in rari casi che richiederanno strumenti adatti), mentre l'attenzione va posta sul superamento dei 38 gradi nei bimbi (cosa purtroppo frequente nei primi 4/5 anni di vita, quando a scuola bimbi infetti vengono mandati in classe senza problemi da genitori altruisti) per capire quando cominciare l'iter di Tachipirina et similia. Sintesi: FUNZIONA, ed il fatto che alla fine della rilevazione vibri, invece di suonare, è geniale, come lo è lo schermo ottimamente leggibile di sera/notte (come ben apprezzano i genitori di bimbi piccoli che devono controllare ogni 4 ore la temperatura per capire se continuare a dare medicine, o se il calvario notturno sia finito)

Excelente producto. Me llegó y todo muy bien
