Hi all,
I am looking for a good temperature gun but they all seem to have the EMISSIVITY FIXED at 0.95 ? is this the right value for aur glow engines ? Should i get one with the emissivity adjustable, what would be the correct value ?? thanks in advance.

At 1" distance you will measure a circle of 1" in diameter using the Duratrax sensor.
