Now, I'm hoping you have one of these and can tell us more about it. I have the Oregon blood pressure unit, and think it is one of the coolest gadgets around for the price. It tells you in speech, as well as by its digital screen, your blood pressure, etc.
My question concerning the heat sensor is, does it also give all information in speech, along with the digital readout? Do you have an idea as to the price? ----- Original Message ----- From: Dan Rossi To: blindhandyman@yahoogroups.com Sent: Wednesday, September 08, 2010 9:57 AM Subject: RE: [BlindHandyMan] talking thermometer or other solution. How about the Oregon Scientific Talking Wireless BBQ thermometer. That sounds like it would fit the bill. Again, it only goes up to 572 degrees, but has a separate wireless probe from the talking unit. Here is a description. Well let you know when your BBQ is ready from a football field away!
