Those look great except for the fixed probe. Did you take yours apart
and remote the probe to the vent system? The price is cheap enough that
I could afford to risk destroying one (or two)...

Hi Eric,

Please tell me exactly what thermometer you got and where. I can't find
anything suitable on the internet or at the local hardware store. Maybe
I'm just not asking the right questions.

I replied privately with a picture, but here are the links:

I bought it on amazon.com. Search for "digital food thermometer". This
one seems to do the same things, but looks a little different:

The on/off button turns it on and off; also, it will shut off
automatically in a minute or so. That's fine with me. I believe, but
I'm not positive, that this one has a real on/off button, if you don't
want it to turn off automatically.

No, I just stuck in through a hole in vent duct near the eyeball vent,
and it reads the OAT within a degree F.
