They are currently on sale for $59.95 at Harbor Freight, (I think harborfreight.com). Last year they hovered around $100.
On DSSI a few people said that if you are serious about sublimation, it is a necessity. I figured that my reading was accurate, wrong. 15* can make a bigger difference in results with laser toner transfer. You really need that temperature gun for good results.

Forgot to mention that, thanks.
Plain masking tape works also. If the platen is metal at all use the tape. I have a sandblasted metal platen, totally erratic readings without the tape, rock steady readings with the tape.

Harvey,
I have been looking for the infra-red laser non-contact gun. They have two at Harbor Freight item 90380-ovga at $79.99 and another item # 91778-4VGA $39.99. Could you please tell me which one it is that you have.
Thanks Cindy

Now that I am finally home again, I have the thermometer in hand.
It is Cen-Tec item 91778. That is the only info on it except for the Harbor Freight phone number 800-444-3353.
That is such a good price, I may buy a spare. I have never seen it so inexpensive.
