Exergen Temporal Artery Thermometer MODEL# TAT-2000C

Product Description

The TemporalScanner Thermometer is a totally non-invasive system with advanced infrared technology providing maximum ease of use with quick, consistently accurate measurements. Advanced, patented technology measures temperatures with a gentle stroke across the forehead. The TemporalScanner Thermometer has been clinically tested for accuracy compared to rectal thermometers and temperature sensors inserted in the heart during course of patient treatment and accepted for use in major hospitals, making it the ideal thermometer for use with newborns, infants, children or adults. The TemporalScanner has patented software, providing arterial heat balance. This unique process determines temperature by accurately measuring the balance between the tissues warming from arterial blood and tissues cooling (warming) caused by heat loss (gain) to the environment.


  • No bettery included
  • Gentle Stroke of Forehead captures naturally emitted heat from skin over temporal artery
  • Red LED lights and soft beep indicate correct scan
  • Takes 1,000 readings per second, selecting the most accurate
  • Arterial Heat Balance computers the correct temperature

5.0 out of 5 stars Works great, But you need to practice a bit, January 21, 2007
This review is from: Exergen Temporal Artery Thermometer MODEL# TAT-2000C (Health and Beauty)
I got this as a gift and LOVE it!!

2 of my kids have small ear canals and have frequent ear infections so we can not use the ear thermometer (you can't use it on kids under 1 anyway). And waiting for a rectal reading on a squrimy baby was a challenge

I was shocked to read bad reviews on another site. My husband had some problems at first (like these people's complaints) but I figured out that he was pulling it away from our kids head and was still holding down the button for a second, which was then adding to the calculations the room temperature. Depending on how long he continued to hold it down after pulling it away, it really made the temperatures flucuate. My readings would only vary by .1-.2 degrees.

So Practice a couple times when you first get it. (Across the forehead, down the temple and stop infront of the ear). BEFORE YOU PULL IT UP, LET GO OF THE BUTTON!!!. It will beep as soon as you let the button go and has your reading. It takes... Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars BEST BABY CARE PRODUCT, April 5, 2007
By 
This review is from: Exergen Temporal Artery Thermometer MODEL# TAT-2000C (Health and Beauty)
The Exergen has to be the best baby product invented. Ever been awake wondering how high your feverish sleeping child's temp is but afraid to wake her checking? No problem!

The ONLY complaint (which still doesn't prevent me from giving this product a 5 rating) is that there is no backlight. You have to move to a lit area in the dark to read the result. Also, when first using, it is best to test your scanner when there is no fever. I find that 98.6 is not always a consistent baseline. Learn each person's base temp before the fever begins.

IMPORTANT - if the patient has a hot forehead due to sunburn and you suspect a fever developing, use another non-forehead means to double check. We gave our child fever-reducing medicine only to realize the "sunstroke fever" turned out to be heat from sunburn on the skin itself. Apply some aloe vera, wait, and then check when the skin has had a chance to recover a bit. Double check with alternate thermometer... Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars NICE and no extra pieces to buy!, October 27, 2007

I will admit it. I am a gadget junkie.

We have a Braun tympanic thermometer that I received as a baby gift. While I really liked it a lot, I had to wait until my preemie was older and had bigger ear holes to use it on her. Also, ear infections skew the readings on those things. And finally, you have to get those crazy probe covers which are just a pain.

After going to the Dr.'s office and being "swiped" by the professional version of the Exergen Temporal Artery thermometer, I felt like I just HAD to look into the home version. Since it is a Flexible Spending Account eligible item, I decided to give it a go.

Many of the reviews I had read stated that this thermometer read "low". Well, I pulled it out of the package and tested it on myself. 96.4. Over and over. I almost screamed, then started pulling on the frosted piece of plastic at the business end of the thermometer, and voila! Turns out that you have to take the protective cover off the... Read more
