I'm looking for a thermometer to put in the vapour path at the top of my VM reflux still. Is there any special criteria? I was thinking I want it digital with 2 decimal places. Where is a good place to get one

You might have trouble finding them with two decimal places...Generally, digital with one decimal place will suffice in the vapour path of a VM.

I have two of these (one as a backup), and they have been consistently brilliant. I think they're available at several places, but Jaycar is the only one I know of at the moment.

:text-+1: The Jaycar one works really well. a couple of wrap's of plumbers tape to seal and It fits into a 1/4" thermometer port great.
