I don't know if it's faster than their Thermopen, but it's supposed to be less than 4 seconds and less than half the price of the thermopen:

I likeys th size/profile, makin it a more ergonomically transportable thermo, so I'm thinkin on it...

Yep, its nice to see new stuff, but I'm continuing with my Thermapen (classic) until it dies on me. Which it might, as its been wonky at times since my daughter in law tossed it into a sink full of soapy water with the dishes, and washed it for me. Hint - Thermapen classic is not waterproof! I have their older RT600C pocket digital too, which was my first thermometer of any accuracy beyond an old analog dial meat thermometer...

Since I am looking for one of these, that was a nice surprise when I got the email. But I am not confused by the models. What’s the big difference between this new one and the Pop, compared to the Thermapen mk4?

I just saw the email and looked at this new thermometer. It's much more accurate than the Thermopop, and +/- 0.9F compared to +/- 2.0F for the Thermopop. Not quite so large a display though. The Thermapen reads 1-2 seconds faster, and is +/- 0.7F accurate, but as you point out, costs twice as much.
For my money, if you want accuracy this is a pretty good buy. For brewing beer, I need accuracy of less than 1 degree, as a couple of degrees can make a huge difference in the results of the mash process. For steaks and such, the Thermopop is still probably accurate enough, plus it has a larger display.Last edited by jfmorris; June 29, 2020, 08:51 AM.

Yeah... I opened that email and bought it almost immediately. Again.
Well, I was in need of a battery for the "Pro Needle" so bought a new thermometer too. Picked up batteries for other ones too.
It’s hopeless.
edit:
I have a ridiculous amount of ThermoWorks products and love all of them except for one.Last edited by HouseHomey; June 29, 2020, 08:30 PM.

Woohoo! Someone more "sick" than myself! LOL
I saw it and thought, "Cool, but doesn’t really do anything my Pro Needle can’t do" so didn’t order one... Yet.
Do you keep a thermometer in a sleeve pocket? Curious to know how this one fits.

surfdog I try to so yes. If not I have it laying around somewhere. One on the front line, one or two in the back kitchen. One in my backpack, one in my knife roll. Yeah, I’m the butt of a lot of jokes. Until some one has issues and needs a thermometer or probe.

Well, my Weber instant read crapped out on my today. I only spent $12 on it and it lasted 6 years.
I need to buy a "decent but not expensive" instant read to keep at my inlaws for when I grill there. And a "nicer but not crazy priced" instant read for me.....

BFlynn I like the folding tip (no sheath to misplace), fits in a pocket, large digits, and the price. I bought a Thermopop when they first came out and ...hate it - digits too small, buttons too hard to push, sheath always seemed to end up somewhere besides where I thought it was.
Performance wise there doesn't seem to be any difference. I've been pleased with the thermos I've bought from Lavatools and Thermoworks (except the Pop) but for a low price thermo it's hard to beat a Javelin.

Hello. First post and new member. What sealed the deal on joining for me today was the 20% deal on the Mk.4, but I thought I'd try to combine the $20 the mk4 that supposedly comes with our membership? That's what the front page had said.
I know this is probably not a great place to ask if you all know how to activate the $20 off deal that supposedly came with our membership? But, it seemed like it was tied to this topic as well, including jfmorris's comment about the 20% off blue mk4 deal going on at the moment.
Thanks, and hello!

I just ordered a thermopop for my lake house and a Dash for my daughter, who is about to leave back to college and live in her first apartment. So, figured this would be a good start to properly learning how to cook. And, I made it a pink Dash, since that’s her favorite color!
