No-Touch Forehead Thermometer for Adults, Kids, Babies PT3 | 1s Fast Accurate, 3 Ultra-Sensitive Sensors, Quiet Vibration Feedback, Digital Large LED Digits, Use for Home & Nurses

The iHealth PT3 thermometer works amazingly well. It gives an accurate reading in literally one second with just a single button press. What I love most is the gentle vibration feedback instead of loud, annoying beeps—perfect for taking temperatures at night without disturbing anyone. The black sleek design looks great, and the LED display is bright and very easy to read. It's fast, hygienic (no-touch), and super simple for the whole family to use. Totally worth it!

I've been using this thermometer for about a month now, and it's been working great. The readings are quick, clear, and consistent. I also like that you can easily switch between Celsius and Fahrenheit, which is very convenient. So far I'm very happy with my purchase and would definitely recommend it.

I have a baby and a toddler in my house who have to go to daycare and get sick often because of it. For that reason, I already have one thermometer that reads by touching and dragging across the forehead for a reading. At the time I thought this was the best option for little ones but it’s readings are so different each time, even when I use it back to back (from 99.5-104.2 sometimes!) Those are vastly different and one scarier than the other! So I decided to get another thermometer. I usually buy products based off of reviews. Honestly there were mixed reviews on this one. But you always have to take reviews with a grain of salt meaning that most people won’t leave a review unless they’re upset or super love it. And many people may love a product but don’t want to take the time to leave a review beyond giving it a star-rating. But I kept doing research on other thermometers and found they all had mixed reviews. So I took a chance on this one because of the features offered. I loved that it’s touchless (thinking Covid). I loved that it didn’t beep when it was complete (thinking of a sleeping child). (It even comes with its own batteries-it’s the small things right?) But most importantly are the readings. Right now my children are healthy. When I tried it out on them, not only was it consistent, but it was accurate! And it read differently on each of us, again all in the normal realm but it changed between each of us but kept the same reading as the last time that forehead was scanned. So right now, this product has my full confidence. I’ll update this post if I find otherwise. I would recommend trying this one out if you need a thermometer for a young child or just need a good touchless thermometer for Covid reasons.

Convenient for quick forehead checks on my daughter when she came home from the NICU (ran cold easily), but not as accurate as standard thermometers under the arm. MUCH better than trying to get underarm temp on a swaddled newborn in the middle of the night when you’re an anxious new mom though! I did like that the temperature readings were consistent between checks, though! I did two or three readings each use.

This has to be the easiest digital thermometer I’ve ever used and I am a nurse. Comes with starter batteries. Simple to scan and get quick readings. We first used one on our family member who had Alzheimer’s. FYI in this disease temperature controls are lost at some point. Made management of hypo or elevated temps was easier to manage.

I've used several thermometers and this was is by far the best! Very accurate readings and very simple to use.

Read all the instructions and used as directed. Readings in someone with a fever were both inaccurate and imprecise (gave a medically dangerous underestimate). Readings in someone with no fever were closer to the truth (moderate overestimate). I also checked it against results from a proven accurate thermometer that is harder to use. Foreheads often are not a good reflection of core temperature (only tympanic and rectal temps are good reflections of core temperature). So, I wasn't expecting perfection but I figured the company had done it's due diligence and was marketing a no touch forehead thermometer because it worked (as in the technology employed had advanced to the point that is was sufficiently accurate for medical decision-making purposes). I would have been happy if the thermometer read a degree lower than core temp but at least did so reliably. If it read 1 degree lower all the time because skin is cooler I would be able to factor that in to my assessment of whether someone needs medical attention or to stay home from social gatherings. However, it gave me wildly different temperature readings when used on the same very feverish person, at the same angle and distance in the same lighting taken within seconds of each other. I compared it against a proven accurate household utility thermometer that reads packed ice water correctly as 32F (0 Celsius) and full boil water as 212F (100 Celsius) very consistently as well as correctly measuring a mixture of equal parts of the two. I also compared it to another older oral digital medical thermometer that has tolerable but less impressive accuracy (had to use armpit and oral for these because the utility thermometer has a pointy metal tip that is unsuitable for any other body part - so these should be higher but not 2.5-3 degrees difference). Here is a list of some of the readings: Vetted Thermometer: 103.6 This product: 101.8 Vetted Thermometer: 104.2 This product: 100.4 (almost categorizing a serious fever as a non fever!) Vetted Thermometer: 97.5 This product: 98.6 Vetted Thermometer: 97.2 This product: 98.7 Vetted Thermometer: 97.6 This product: 99.6 Vetted Thermometer: 98.0 This product: Lo error I have no use for a thermometer that is only modestly accurate when someone doesn't have a fever and wildly inaccurate when someone does have a fever. Errors ranged from a minimum of 1 degree to almost 3 degrees. What use is that? This is not the sort of thing any person wants to be dealing with when they, their children or spouse is very sick. I see by review analysis of this product that "8,572 customers mention "Accuracy" 5,233 positive 3,339 negative" How on Earth does a thermometer that is found to be inaccurate by nearly 40% of users have a product rating over 4 stars? Some even commented that "it works well but isn't accurate" !!! An inaccurate thermometer works about as "well" as a car that doesn't move or a cell phone that only dials random numbers! Perhaps it is a severe quality control issue and half of them really do work better but there are many reviews from those who tried replacements of this product with no luck as well. If you do buy it, I'd suggest testing it out on both ends of its functional temperature range (around 97 degrees to 107 degrees) within 30 days. I bought it as a suggested item because I knew I should have another in the house and can't even return it because we didn't have any fevers to test it on for 2 months and the return window closed. Really, I would suggest finding a legit tympanic thermometer and just embrace the annoyance of probe covers because it may not even be possible to get a truly valid reading using infra-red on a feverish forehead that is actively engaged in evaporative cooling. In contrast, tympanic membranes don't sweat and the ear canal limits cooling air flow while the probe is inserted; also, there is less interference from possible environmental infra-red light interference. So there are at least three features which would help lead to a more accurate reading using the tympanic method. (some tympanic models require probe covers but if you don't like this type of plastic waste you can just reuse a probe cover after cleaning it with alcohol & write individuals initials on the base of the cover).

Works well

Il mio amatissimo termometro Xiaomi Mijia si è rotto la settimana scorsa dopo una decina di anni, ed ero a lutto. Dopo un'indagine, ho scoperto che Xiaomi all'epoca aveva fatto una partnership con iHealth, e questo che recensisco è il modello che cercavo, ma migliorato. Ho letto tutte le recensioni e, come al solito, molti danno un punteggio basso ai prodotti perché non ne hanno letto le istruzioni, o non ne hanno capito il funzionamento, o non gli piace l'estetica, o il corriere gli ha morso il cane. 1. Le misurazioni dei termometri da ascella, da bocca, da orecchio, da tetto, e a rilevazione degli infrarossi in linea generale danno risultati diversi tra loro. È normale. 2. Per sapere se si ha davvero la febbre, cioè se la nostra temperatura sia effettivamente più alta della nostra temperatura di quando non siamo malati, occorre misurarla quando siamo "sani" col termometro che intenderemo usare in seguito, di qualsiasi tipo esso sia (a contatto, auricolare, rettale, o ad infrarossi). La temperatura rilevata da "sani" sarà un buon termine di paragone da usare in futuro per sapere se avremo la febbre (occorre sempre considerare che la temperatura varia durante la giornata: più bassa al mattino, più alta la sera, ed è normale). Questo vale anche per il termometro iHealth. 3. Temperatura ambientale: Per prendere la temperatura con questo modello occorre lasciarlo fuori dalla scatola nello stesso ambiente dove c'è il soggetto del quale dobbiamo misurare la temperatura per 3 minuti (e poi va rimesso nella scatola, per farlo durare nel tempo e perché continui a funzionare correttamente; umido e polvere fanno sballare le letture). Nota: quando le pile sono scariche le letture sballano. Se lascerete le pile per anni all'interno, ne uscirà acido che rovinerà il termometro, come capitato a me. Quindi: se non lo usate, togliete le pile, lasciatelo in scatola in un cassetto. 4. Distanza di rilevazione: max 2 cm dalla fronte, cioè vicino ma SENZA TOCCARE MAI LA FRONTE (mettete un dito di piatto sulla fronte: quella è la distanza giusta) 5. Posizione della rilevazione: dalla linea ideale che unisce le sopracciglia scegliete il centro tra gli occhi e poi salite di 3 cm, dove la fronte è piatta. Chi misura la temperatura sulle tempie, e poi lascia pure una recensione negativa perché secondo lui il termometro non funziona, è uno sciocchino che andrebbe percosso col termometro sulle gengive, perché sulle tempie affiorano arterie e vene, ed ovviamente la temperatura rilevata sarà SEMPRE alta senza che però ci sia febbre, e sarà molto più alta della temperatura rilevata nel punto giusto. La temperatura va misurata solamente nel punto indicato dalle istruzioni. (In realtà, una volta capito il meccanismo, si potrebbe anche rilevare la temperatura sulla tempia in un giorno nel quale stiamo bene, ed usare quello come termine di paragone per le successive rilevazioni, ma è meglio attenersi alle istruzioni, che hanno il loro motivo di esistere). 5. Area da misurare deve essere: 5.1 SENZA capelli: Se avete bimbi, basterà soffiare sulla fronte e la magia si compirà. 5.2 NON UNTA, NÉ SUDATA: quindi, se necessario, usate un panno umido per lavare/asciugare il grasso/sudore, e poi attendete qualche minuto prima di misurare, altrimenti l'acqua in evaporazione farà scendere la temperatura della fronte (a causa del primo principio della termodinamica studiato a scuola). 6. Costanza della misurazione: in passato i termometri ad infrarossi misuravano una temperatura diversa ad ogni minima inclinazione causata da mani ballerine. Questo termometro è molto migliore, ma chi ha il Parkinson è meglio che chieda a qualcun altro di misurare la temperatura, altrimenti poi ci ritroviamo altre geniali recensioni negative. Per eliminare le incertezze basterà fare più rilevazioni sullo stesso punto in rapida successione. In ogni caso, preoccuparsi per i decimi è da ipocondriaci (tranne in rari casi che richiederanno strumenti adatti), mentre l'attenzione va posta sul superamento dei 38 gradi nei bimbi (cosa purtroppo frequente nei primi 4/5 anni di vita, quando a scuola bimbi infetti vengono mandati in classe senza problemi da genitori altruisti) per capire quando cominciare l'iter di Tachipirina et similia. Sintesi: FUNZIONA, ed il fatto che alla fine della rilevazione vibri, invece di suonare, è geniale, come lo è lo schermo ottimamente leggibile di sera/notte (come ben apprezzano i genitori di bimbi piccoli che devono controllare ogni 4 ore la temperatura per capire se continuare a dare medicine, o se il calvario notturno sia finito)

iHealth products are always of high quality and easy to use.

The good: it works. The readings are consistent. Some people complained they are inaccurate – well, I can’t say whether they are or aren’t, but they are consistent when I try a few times. Which sometimes I have to do, because it requires very specific distance from the skin in a very specific spot. The vibrating is very handy. When I had Covid I would check my temperature and honestly had no energy to drag myself to the mirror, so I would just sort of hover it around the spot until the thermometer vibrated and I knew that was it. No clue how long the battery last, but so far it looks like the answer is ‘forever’. If I didn’t sometimes have to try up to eight times it would be an instant 5*.

No idea why this has so many positive reviews, this is not even close to being accurate. Would not recommend especially for babies or kids. Maybe mine was faulty? I dunno

Rewelacja, dobrze wykonany produkt. Działa rewelacyjnie już od kilka lat.
