Exergen TemporalScanner Giveaway

by 184 Comments

Thanks to the Family Review Network I have the opportunity to review the Exergen TemporalScanner.

When it comes to thermometers I have tried them all. We have a thermometer that is for rectal, oral, and under the arm. We have a pacifier thermometer. I have an ear thermometer. Actually, I have two ear thermometers.

When it comes to taking the temperature of your child it is extremely difficult. If they are screaming the pacifier will not stay in their mouth long enough to take the temp. The ear is difficult with Mr. squirmy Miles my little man. My daughter always complains about the ear as well. Not only is getting their temp difficult, getting an accurate reading is difficult.

Last time my son was sick his temp was 104. I freaked out. I called the doctor and the nurses asked what I used to get the reading. They said that the best I could do was use the under the arm but I have to add a degree to it. They also told me not to worry, but if I get 104 with my new TemporalScanner, we’re going to the ER because my doctor said 105 is brain melt.

thermoThe TemporalScanner uses infrared to measure the body temperature. It uses the temporal artery which is the temp of our blood flow. It is so easy to use. You just rub it across the forehead and get the temp. It says on the directions to make sure the hair is out of the way and that you go in a straight line, but I haven’t done any of that and I have been completely satisfied with the accuracy. Heck, all I want to know is if they have a fever or not. We have been able to use it to take the temperature of the room we are in. It’s an accurate read too. It has been the least invasive way for getting their temp with the most accurate result. My kids can use it on each other and my oldest child is two. I love my kids.

You can purchase the TemporalScanner at Costco, Wal-Mart, and Babies R Us.

Just ask your pediatrician for your TAT-2000C Educational Pamphlet which includes a $5.00 (mail-in) rebate coupon good toward your purchase of a TAT-2000C ComfortSCANNER™ or TemporalScanner™ Temporal Artery Thermometer.
If your pediatrician has run out of TAT-2000C Educational Pamphlets, just click here or on the image of the pamphlet to the left and download a full copy, including the rebate coupon.

    I’m so glad I didn’t know about the 105 temp thing. My son is great at spiking high fevers without giving much indication that he feels that badly. I’ve been eyeing up this thermometer for awhile and think it will save us all a lot of struggle.

  60. My daughter gets super high temperatures–usually between 104 and 105–and usually in the middle of the night. They have to be carefully monitored. This would make it so much easier and less intrusive.
