This thermometer has a very thin, rigid and sharp tip that is only 0.043" (1.1 mm) in diameter and 3.35" (85 mm) long . This small tip allows you to penetrate a sous-vide cooking bag without damaging the vacuum seal. Users need to stick a foam tape on the bag and penetrate the bag through the foam tape.
This thermometer is also good for regular cooking applications. Because its fine tip, the response time is much faster than the cheap thermistor based thermometer. it only takes 2-3 second to reach the full value. The accuracy of the meter is less than 1 °F in the normal cooking temperature range.
