Hi, I noticed that the advertizement for the ExTech Big Digit Thermometer (401014) says it reads the temperature in Fahrenheit as well as in Celsius. I want to take the thermometer to Spain, and it needs to display the temperature in Celsius. Please...

Norm, YES, there is a C / F selector slide switch on the back. Been using it in FL for years now. It has the best, clearest, most contrast LCD display. Mine has been reading 88 days and 79 nights for the last few weeks, enjoy Espanol ........ Display is just like the photo.....

It does do Celsius. Hold the button while the thermometer is off. You should see an indication that it's reading in Fahrenheit by the "F" on the bottom. Press the button again to change the F to a C, and then the thermometer should read in Celsius. I'm pretty sure the instructions on how to do this are in the package.

There are two models of the DROK meter, one that reads Fahrenheit and one that reads Celsius. The Celsius model can't read Fahrenheit and vice versa. To switch to the temperature readout (from voltage or time) press the button marked "m" (mode). Hope that helps.

Yes, the unit does read in degrees Celsius. There is a switch on the back of the master unit and a switch on the inside of the remote units to change from F to C and back to F.

need to know the same thing. Purchased from Amazon as we live in a country where you cant buy this. It is in Farenhieght and our home country is celcius. Please let me know if you find out, but i have a feeling its not possible

I've found this usefull for measuring the temperature on just about anything, but if you try to get body temperature, the problem is it gives you the surface temp, not internal temp....it will read low, like 93 or 94 deg. Shoot your tonsils and it will be higher, but not trustworthy enough to replace the normal thermometer. I love this thermometer for everything else and my battery has lasted a year so far, another plus.

yes it does read in Celsius but it was terrible and did not work I returned it. I'm sorry I did not read the reviews before I purchased.

It shows the actual temperature (in celcius). You have to go through the menu to see the set point.

The truth, i dont know. I also prefer in celsius, but as the turtlemeter show me screen colors i feel comfortable using Fahrenheit.

No, this thermometer is in Celsius. -20C to 110C (you can easily convert from Fahrenheit using google).

Sorry but none of the STC-1000 temperature controllers I have purchased will display in °F. They work great, I just use the equation to get °F:(°F - 32) x 5 / 9 = °CI wish there were a better way.

Same problem here. Although I have temperatures already stored in the memory from 2012. A bit concerning considering I bought this thermometer in 2014 and it's supposed to be new. Eww. This thermometer is pretty much useless to me without the ability to store temperatures in the memory. Very frustrating since I waited a month for it to be shipped to me. I will contact the seller for refund :(

Its reading in celcius. 38° celcius is 100° fareheight... there should be directionns on how to change the readout to °F..

There appears to be no way to change the readout to read degrees F, so a good way is to make a notation of what temperature in degrees F you desire on a piece of tape and fasten it to the side of the soldering station, so you can dial (punch) in the appropriate temperature in degrees C. You should have only a few settngs for conversion.

When turned on it flashes both symbols, but only Fahrenheit stays on and the reading only shows in Fahrenheit. You could call the manufacturer and see if it could be switched, but I do not see how. 1800-327-7226 Model FHT1000 Or you could just print out a conversion table.

Hello, The thermometer is not recalibratable. What you should do, is put the thermometer in a pot of water, just before it boils. When it boils, take note of reading. Water boils at 212deg. at sea level. the boiling temp. goes up as you gain altitude. But 212deg. is close enough to get an idea, of where you thermometer is reading. I would bet that most thermometers are plus/minus 15% anyway. They just give you an approximation, of where the food is..................RW

I'm not sure what you mean, thermometer? Ours does not have a digital thermometer and nothing on it is digital, but you can purchase one separately. So far we have had no problems with the temps. and have not used any additional thermometers nor thermostats. Sorry I can't help more.
