    I'm thinking TelTru makes all, if not nearly all the thermometers for us casters. Same therm - different prices. Mike

    Here's an oddball question, would the therm that comes as part of a turkey frier package work? Assuming it goes to 800 degrees, that is.

    My Lyman reads nearly 100 degrees off from the two digitals that I have. It's all relative though. Find the temp that the mold likes and use it. If it say 650 on the Lyman but it's really 750, the mold doesn't care

    I Purchased one from RotoMetals. Have not noticed the manufacturer, but it runs spot on with my PID probe. I did with out such goodies for many years, but LIFE is good.

    Have any of you attached the clip-on to the inner surface of the lift bracket of a Lee Pro 20?
