Reading temperatures

[Artie]

I'm looking at an infrared that is 'supposed' to read 900° C, I'm a little skeptical about this but it isn't much money so I'm going to take a shot on it.... I also find that I tend to pour overly hot and this isn't a good thing for surface finishes in a lot of cases.

Ergo I was watching this thread with interest, Id rather just point and read if at all possible.
