Product review (1 stars): wher's the battery?
this thermometer might work just fine. I would not know. I would know if the manufacturer had issued a 50 cent (wholesale less than 25 cents i'm sure) lr1130 battery with it. when I got it I was sure that it did not work because it needed a battery, a triple A or something like that. the instructions says it takes a lr1130 button battery. I assumed that it was installed and the reason it did not work is because it has packing to keep the points from touching. I opened the battery compartment, looked inside, and said YOU HAVE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME. no battery. we have an assortment of button batteries on hand, but not this one. I have to wait until my next trip to the store before I can use it. I will give this a total of two stars if it works after I put the battery in.  I would have paid a little more for this thermometer if 25 cents is going to put them out of business. but when I think about it that might be a good thing.
