I wanted to come clean as I found out when I got my Infrared Thermo that one of my Condars thermometer was off .
I have report and shown pics on here of my flue pipe temp 400 and stove top way up there like 900.
Well the oldest condar I used to use on my old wood furnance and I started using it in 1990 so its pretty old. Its was the one reading off.
My other Condar that was on the stove pipe is pretty close but its a lot newer one.
I compared my condars and my new infrared thermo gun and a K type thermocouple reader thats like .1 degree accurate.
The new Thermo gun is pretty much on with its temps as well as the newer condar I have.
With that one older condar I reported stove top temps pegged of like 950, temps were actually like 750. So the stove top wasnt as hot as I thought. But up to about 600 its close but it's readings over 600 it gets way off.
