Hey guys, anyone of you know where i can get a cheap and good thermometer for checking the temperatures while i process my black and white films? It doesn't have to be the super elaborate kind lah, like metal and tall and skinny and stuff. I'm just looking for something simple, cheap and good! Burnt all the money on the film and chemicals lah..
Many thanks!

Ruby Photo. There is one that's sort of brandless, long(good for stirring your developer) and is easy to read from because there is a sort of bend near the top. $10 IIRC. Measures 20 deg c to 30 deg c. Good enough for B&W use.

Broke mine photographic thermometer and got this, better than mine previous one which was more expensive IMHO.

or get those probe type, like those they use in coffee bean and starbucks to check milk temperature.

Find these more sensitive and responsive, and just need to put it in and the dial shows you all the reading like a clock.

as mentioned, i wont risk my life ( more than one life if I share the cake with others :bsmilie: ) for price of lesser than $50 (think the probe is about $30+).
