4The best IR thermometer for the money  May 29, 2010 By Gordon Woodroof
The Fluke model 561 infrared thermometer is an excellent buy. It is the only IR thermometer that I found under $250 that had an adjustable emissivity. Since not all surfaces radiate infrared equally, this can be a very important feature. The model 561 also can accept K type thermocouples for use in making contact temperature measurements. As an added feature, this model comes with a special K type theromocouple mounted in a velcro strap for wrapping around pipes for direct contact measurements. The plastic case is nice, too. I researched every model of IR thermometer under $500 for a month, and this was the best that I found. The only drawback is that the switch that changes between Celcius and Farenheit is inconveniently located inside the battery compartment.

4Fluke 561IR  Dec 14, 2007 By Miguel Castillo "betoc2"
Easy to read display, We will use it in the field, As all fluke's instruments, they are very reliable and accurate, my only observation is the K thermocouple reading does not have decimals, it give you full numbers, this feature would give a big plus for the instrument.

5I/R thermometer  Feb 25, 2012 By R. Gooden
I needed an I/R thermometer to check and monitor my engines in my radio controlled miniature aircraft.
I used lesser brands but they seemed to read lower than I thought, and I researched for at least three months and finally decided on a Fluke 561.
I will use no other unit, this works flawlessly good solid readings no fluctuation like the others, they would change at least twenty degrees as you were holding on one spot.
This unit gives steady accurate readings on my five cylinder radial engine so I can modify my air baffles in order to keep all cylinders close to the same temperature.
I also have found countless other uses for it, I could write a book.
You can't go wrong with this one.

5High quality professional IR Thermometer  Mar 14, 2010 By Thule1
I did extensive research on IR thermometers, how they work, they various fetures, reliability, accuracy, ease of use, and practical application around the home. I selected the Fluke because they have a steller professional reputation for quuality products. I wanted a unit that I could gain home-use value and this unit has provided all I expected. With the Fluke 561 I can now properly adjust my refridgerator-freezer so it produces ice-maker output correctly (need ZERO degrees F. in freezer) and my refrigerator isn't freezing the food (34-38 degrees F.). I can check my stove and oven temperatures, most food surface temperatures (not internal) and best of all I can verify the my Air Conditioning/Heat Pump units are producing the correct temperature ouputs to keep my family comfortable. The Fluke 561 is easy to use and Fluke has a lot of useful information about IR THermometers and how they can be used.

5awesome gun  Jan 05, 2012 By Victor P. Lujan "vpl"
This thing was pricey but definitely worth the money. The product works as advertised by Fluke. No problems with it at all. I just point it, pull the trigger and then stick it back in the case and I know the gun will turn itself off.
