Duratrax Flashpoint - not bad as long as its not a shiny surface. If you're going to temp shiny surfaces, loot at a Raytech Jr.

I have the Duratrax too. Great temp gun for the price. Has a few neat features like you can set it in "max" and wave it over a few areas of your motor and it will tell you the highest reading it got ;)

I have two of the Turnigy units above in use over a year now with no problems, they read within a couple degrees consistantly of other more expensive models. $10 well spent.

Keep a paper clip in your box as they sometimes like to change from DegF to DegC on their own, not sure why.
