Not the one you're thinking about. LOL This is a lab thermometer I have had for years that is very
accurate. I just go out and stick it in the dirt for a few days and watch it. Since it's about 10
inches long I can put most of it under the surface. It was 70F here today ambient temperature, won't
be long.
