The TemporalScanner Thermometer is a totally non-invasive system with advanced infrared technology providing maximum ease of use with quick, consistently accurate measurements. Advanced, patented technology measures temperatures with a gentle stroke across the forehead. The TemporalScanner Thermometer has been clinically tested for accuracy compared to rectal thermometers and temperature sensors inserted in the heart during course of patient treatment and accepted for use in major hospitals, making it the ideal thermometer for use with newborns, infants, children or adults.The TemporalScanner has patented software, providing arterial heat balance. This unique process determines temperature by accurately measuring the balance between the tissues warming from arterial blood and tissues cooling (warming) caused by heat loss (gain) to the environment.

1 out of 5 stars Don't waste your money.   August 28, 2008
When I first bought it, the temperature reading seemed to be accurate. It measured consistently between 98 and 99, and it matched closely my oral thermometer. Now it measures between 95 and 96 even though my oral thermometer still measures between 98 and 99. Before you ask, I did remove the cap and hold it level on my forehead. It's just inaccurate now. Don't waste your money.


1 out of 5 stars JUNK!   August 2, 2008
Do not waste your money. The temperature reading is erratic and inaccurate. Just does not work as it claims.


5 out of 5 stars I recommend it.   July 11, 2008
I brought one, and it works.
It reads the expected 97.1-97.7 F in less than two seconds most of the time. I scan myself, then baby to compare. It's a simple forehead scan.
Whatever the variation, the point is that I know it's normal enough. My newborn doesn't need to be taken to the doctor. What a relief.

Not having to deal with sticking a thermometer under a squirming child's tongue, armpit, rear, or ear and holding it there for what seems like ages it a huge relief. I recommend it, unless you are of extraordinary low IQ or a creationist.



5 out of 5 stars Finally! A thermometer I can use!   May 31, 2008
I tried the Braun ear thermometer, and I just couldn't hold it in my baby's ear for long enough, it always read too low. I noticed my doctor using Exergen (professional version), so looked for the home version. It takes only a few seconds and reads much more accurately than the ear versions.
