Laser thermometers are actually just infrared thermometers. The laser is actually just there to make the thermometer easier to aim.

Where online can I find laser thermometers?
Laser thermometers can be found at numerous places online. It depends on which type of laser thermometer that you are looking for. You have culinary thermometers and medical thermometers. Most medical sales sites will have these, as well as culinary stores.
What are laser thermometers used for?
Laser thermometers are used to measure the surface temperature of an object. These types of thermometers come in handy when an object is very large or too far away.
Is there mercury in pool thermometers?
Not all pool thermometers have mercury in them. Some types do, but those that use digital or laser technology most likely do not.
For what purposes is an infrared thermometer used?
Infrared thermometers or laser thermometers as they are someimes known are useful for measuring temperature under circumstances wprobe type sensors cannot be used .
Why liquid in glass thermometers are not suitable for industrial work?
Liquid in glass thermometers are fragile.For precise work, they need to be recalibrated frequently.
What are three different sorts of thermomenters?
Three different types of thermometers are :- 1. Liquid thermometer 2. Digital thermometer 3. Laser thermometer
What principle do most thermometers work?
Liquid expands as it gets warmer.
When a laser thermometer says it has a range of 0 to 1000 F can it still display the temperature of a 3000 degree object but just not accuratly?
No! There is no such thing as a Laser thermometer. You mean an infrared thermometer with a laser pointer. All point and shoot thermometers are infrared based. Since infrared light is in the spectrum, it does not require excitation or amplification therefore it is not a laser. Laser is the acronym for Light Amplification by the Stimulated Emission of Radiation. The Thermometer it self has a specific Micro chip that has a pre set temperature range. The display may show you a number above 1000 but it is false. The Rayethon corporation developed one of the first affordable portable infrared thermometers.
How is temperature measured in Antarctica?
Thermometers are very effective in measuring temperatures, in both C and F degrees.
What is an infrared laser thermometer used to measure?
An infrared thermometer is a thermometer which infers temperature from a portion of the thermal radiation sometimes called blackbody radiation emitted by the object being measured. They are sometimes called laser thermometers if a laser is used to help aim the thermometer, or non-contact thermometers to describe the device's ability to measure temperature from a distance. By knowing the amount of infrared energy emitted by the object and its emissivity, the object's temperature can often be determined. Infrared thermometers are a subset of devices known as "thermal radiation thermometers".
How Does Laser Treatment for Cataracts Work?
Laser treatment for cataracts involves using a femtosecond laser, an ultra-fast and precise laser technology.
Does laser shield work?
If you are asking about the Laser Shield - License Plate Laser Deflector. The answer is a big NO! Totally worthless.
