Guest guest Posted September 25, 2002 Report Share Posted September 25, 2002 Sorry to go off topic here. Our ear thermometer broke. I got it in 99. It is a Braun. I was never impressed with it. You take a temperature 3 times in 2 minutes and all 3 are very different. Does anyone have a newer Braun that they like, or that forehead one. My kids won't hold still for me to do the armpit or any other " penetration " sites. TIA Dane's mom DOC Grad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 25, 2002 Report Share Posted September 25, 2002 , I too have a braun and I don't like it either! I was in RiteAid the other day and I picked up this armpit thermometer that my girlfriend swears by. It's a sticky heart that you place in the armpit area. There really cheap too. I haven't tried them yet, but I've heard they work really well. Here's a link to them, hopefully it'll work. http://www.drugstore.com/products/prod.asp? pid=45583 & catid=1332 & trx=PLST-0-SRCH & trxp2=45583 & trxp3=1 & btrx=BUY-PD- PLST-0-SRCH If the link doesn't work, you can go to www. drugstore.com and do a search on TraxIt Children's Wearable Underarm Thermometers Good luck, > Sorry to go off topic here. > Our ear thermometer broke.

Guest guest Posted September 25, 2002 Report Share Posted September 25, 2002 I have a new Braun (purchased 6 months ago) and it's as bad as the one you have. I used to work in a school office and we had a braun ear thermometer that worked badly too. I have a pacifier thermometer that seems to work really good, but I don't know if that would work for you. Sorry to be of no help other than to confirm that Braun thermometers are a RIP OFF!! hehe & (6 months, banded 8/26/02) > Sorry to go off topic here. > Our ear thermometer broke. I got it in 99.
