The ThermoPro TP02S 5 second thermometer is available on Amazon for $7.99.  This thing REALLY has a 5 second read.  I picked one up recently when my previous digital "fast read" (10-30 seconds) cheapie started taking forever and giving me false readings.  It lasted two years.  The ThermoPro has a 5 year replacement warranty.  What the heck, I'll give it a try.

I use it mostly for the grill and the kitchen.  Usually these cheapies say one thing and perform quite differently.  Not this one.  It actually stabilizes at the correct temp in 5 seconds.  It was 1.2F high on the boiling water test, but I can live with that for the price. 

Check it out if you need a portable thermometer.
