Regular mercury thermometers have their own set of issues - cumbersome to use, takes long to get the reading, makes it hard to read the temperature accurately and in case of kids, not the safest to use.

The Forehead Thermometer is a great upgrade that uses infrared technology for no-contact body temperature measurement in an instant. It comes with a LED backlit display along with color codes to show low, normal & high temperature ranges. It also comes with limited memory to record temperature readings.
