Still using one of those old under-the-tongue mercury thermometers? The Stone Age called and they want that thing back. Because it’s 2019 and we have Star Trek-level science at our disposal!
To wit: For a limited time, and while supplies last, you can once again get the iHealth Infrared No-Touch Forehead Thermometer for $19.99 when you clip the on-page $7-off coupon.
This thing looks all kinds of amazing. Just point it at a forehead (no need to actually touch it) and push a button. In about a second you get a reading on its large LED display.
The gizmo runs on a pair of AAA batteries (included). It has a 4.2-star average rating from over 140 buyers, and although both Fakespot and ReviewMeta find some of those ratings questionable, the “legit” ones still point to a solid product. I think if you have youngsters around, this — or something like it — is kind of a must-have.
