    Hi.

    these will be interesting one, so people can see how it looks on cheap NO BRAND heat press ;)

    Heat press: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/NEW-DIGITA...item2a24acf592
    Measurements: Corners: 197/196/200/201. Center:199. So 20 over what's set on the clock.
    Variance: ONLY 4... but 20 out of what clock says.

    you wont gvet an accurate measurement with the press OPEN the air temperatre and any movement will effect the reading, get a probe thermometer and measure iwth the press closed.

    they are no good with reflective materials like flat heat press elements and the ONLY way to accurately measure a heat press is when its CLOSED , infra red thermometers are not supposed to be used for measuring heat presses at all to be fair. I use a probe style its way more accurate

    There's quite a wide range of prices on ebay for the temp gauge. Yet they all look similar. Can anyone recommend? How do you know whether they are accurate or not?

    LOL - I've just noticed the dates on this thread!
    What was the eventual outcome of the tests? Did people use an infrared gauge or a probe?
