I much prefer the ThermoWorks Super-Fast® Pocket Thermometer (RT600C) (5-6 second readings.)
I almost never use the Thermapen!
I start taking the temperature of stuff 3 seconds early—makes the pocket thermometer just as fast as the Thermapen!
Those times are starting at room temperature.
If you place the tip of the RT600C somewhere that's very warm before it's needed, it's just as fast as a Thermapen—or faster.
The Thermapen is okay, but it's annoying in many ways.
The RT600C is a bargain.
