Description

From the #1 brand recommended by pediatricians,* the Braun ThermoScan 4 is a digital ear thermometer that’s easy to use, compact, and fast. Ear is the best site to measure fever as it allows for a more accurate reflection of core body temperature.** Ideal for the whole family, this compact and handheld digital ear thermometer has a color-coded screen with instant fever detection to visually help you interpret the temperature reading. A green screen indicates normal temperature, yellow indicates a fever, and red indicates a high fever is detected. Each screen display is also accompanied by a specific audio temperature indicator – one beep signals normal temperature, 2 consecutive beeps signal the reading is equal or higher to 99.5 °F (37.5 °C), and 4 beeps signal if the reading is equal or higher to 101.4 °F (38.6 °C). You’ll get professional accuracy with 1-second temperature readings.

*Based on a survey reporting that of the surveyed pediatricians (1) who recommend a brand of thermometers, Braun is the most recommended; and (2) who use a branded thermometer, Braun is the most frequently used.

Q: How do we replace the battery? There is not an obvious solution. We’ve had this for several years, so any instructions were disposed of.

submitted by Tarjet Fashon - 8 months ago
  • A: Thank you for your inquiry. To replace the battery, you'll need to open the battery compartment. Insert a narrow pointed object like a ballpoint pen or paperclip into the small hole above the battery door while sliding it back with your other hand. This design feature ensures safety for small children. If you encounter any difficulties, feel free to reach out to us at SocialSupport@helenoftroy.com for further assistance. We're here to help!

Disappointing and does not work

We can hardly ever get it to actually read a temperature, despite following instructions. Almost every single time we try to get a reading, it just gives us the "error" message. Completely useless at this point, unfortunately.

Nony - 1 year ago, Verified purchaser
Opened this just 2 days after it arrived. Just shows an error reading. I am replacing my old Braun Ear Thermometer less than 10 years later for giving inconsistent and inaccurate readings. I had high hopes, because when the old one worked, it was great. Disappointed to receive one that does not work.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used to use a rectal thermometer for my baby but this is lightyears better. It take just a couple of seconds and the color-coded results make it so easy. Green = good, yellow = borderline, red = fever. I just used this as my baby was battling hand, foot and mouth and it was so convenient.

It's an adequate thermometer for fevers. I've owned one before. Inconsistent on repeated checks in same or alternate ear. But ok to use on use and the dog and seems to be better reading fever than normal temp. Mystified at comments claiming "accurate." Unless the verified with a different thermometer, how do they know?

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Honestly, all the components of a great thermometer for kids in one. The lens filters are genius for keeping things sanitary; not to mention the color coded readings to make interpreting the results a no brainer. Plus you don't have to worry about a crying baby that can't keep their head still to get a forehead reading! This is the only one you need, parents!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used this recently in my 2 year old and it really only takes 1 second to get an accurate read. I’ve used armpit thermometers that take too long and forehead ones that had zero consistency. This thermometer is the dream for squirmy kids and quick reads.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We’ve always been hesitant about the accuracy of the forehead scanning thermometers, and when compared to this in ear thermometer, our gut was right! I love how quickly the read is, and the color coding is amazing, especially late at night. Such a great tool to have at our disposal!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product is so easy to use, it reds the ear which is way better then sticking a thermometer in the babies buttocks. I like that the temperature is color coded so that i know right away if its a high fever or not. Definitely recommend this to all moms and moms to be!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The ThermoScan 4 is very easy to use. Simply insert the tip of the thermometer into the ear canal and wait for the reading to appear on the display. The entire process takes just seconds, and the ThermoScan 4 is gentle enough to use on babies and young children.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been using this Braun ear thermometer for over a month now and it’s the best at taking temperatures easy. The thermometer is digital and reads green for no fever, yellow for slight fever, and red for high temperature. With little ones this really helps me to get an accurate temperature fast. This thermometer has really made my life easier when I have someone sick at home.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I like that this thermometer cab be used for both adults and children. It's a small, lightweight easy to carry one that makes it no hassle to take on trips outside. The 3 color indicators green, yellow and red gives quick insights before you read the digital display. Green is normal temp , etc. There is also a 12 or 3 beeps that accompany the color codes. It's easy for my teen to take the temp of younger siblings when they are babysitting . Comfortable fit in ear . Gives a peace of mind that an accurate reading is being taken.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was super easy to use. It was also very accurate. I loved how self explanatory it was and that's always a good thing because you don't want to read a bunch of directions just to use. A tool. It was very easy to understand answer read.The display on it was easy to see and understand I would strongly recommend this product.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very accurate digital ear thermometer. I've had several thermometers that haven't been very accurate with readings. This one is different. Perfect readings every single time. Very easy to use and very compact. Perfect to take along in the diaper bag.
