Q: Are you supposed to add one degree for an accurate reading??

submitted by HCG - 4 years ago

  • A: Hello, and thank you for reaching out. When using a forehead measurement, it is expected to be lower, anywhere from 0.5°F to 1°F lower, as it is an external reading. Furthermore, forehead temperature reduces with age, the older an individual, the lower the forehead temperature is expected to be. Therefore if it is recommended to use these devices as a strong indicator of current temperature, learn your own normal reading so you can identify if a result is outside of your normal temperature.

Q: Is this only able to take readings from ear/forehead? An answer from MOBI says so but the highlights state otherwise.

  • A: Hello Michelle. Thank you for taking the time to reach out! The thermometer has three different reading features. The third feature that the thermometer can read is food and object temperatures. To read these temperatures, press down on the HEAD and EAR buttons together. Hold the thermometer 1-2 inches away from food or object. Then press and release the EAR button to scan. Please feel free to reach out to us via our online support desk if you have further questions.

    Dont buy.

    So bad! I used this and compared it to an old school mouth thermometer. The mobi said my son’s temperature was normal. The other one said he had a fever of 102! I believed the old school one cuz my son was so hot! Deep down I knew he had one which is why I went to Check with a different thermometer. This is so dangerous honestly. I used the safety 1st brand. That’s more accurate

    Absolute trash with multiple incorrect readings on multiple people. Was showing my wife, my son, and myself as having a fever all with varying degrees above normal. Used a stick thermometer and it showed all of us as having the same consistent, normal temperature.

    I don't think it's user error, no matter if it's inside the ear or on the forehead or inches away for the forehead it cannot read it right. under the tongue is 101.5 but forehead read 97.1, and is hot to the touch? would not recommend unless you want more stress.

    Over 8 degress off! Absurd!

    Wow! I bought this since I misplaced our thermometer. I found it right after I bought this one (always check the nightstand drawers after you’ve been sick!). I decided to test both on my son, who has a slight sniffle and maybe a little warm. Our old one said 96.3, which may be a little low. But this one said 104.7!! Which is absolutely absurd!! How is this even on the market? What in the world!

    I wish I had read the reviews before buying. It has inconsistent and inaccurate readings every time. My son has a fever and it read 104 and then 99. I tried again an hour later and the same thing happened - a different reading each time. Awful. Spend the extra money and get the nicer one!!!
