Title: Thermocouple-Pipette Thermometer
Post by: gruns on June 15, 2002, 05:53:00 PM
Pipette:  Kimble, disposable, rated at 20C, markings read:
5/10ml in 5/100

coupled with:

generic 9v digital multimeter with k-type thermocouple
(looks like a thin pair of wires with a tiny knob connecting
them at the end)

Melt pointed tip of pipette closed with blowtorch, insert thermocouple,
wrap teflon tape around midsection to fit 10/30,
reads my grandmother's rectal temperature at 232C, smooth as butter.

Aren't multimeters wonderful?

Total cost: $20
