Temperatures drift. Even when you think they don’t.

Refrigerators, freezers, wine fridges, greenhouses, curing rooms — they cycle, spike, and dip. Those swings shorten shelf life, stall fermentation, stress plants, and push food out of safe ranges.

SPOT™ shows you what’s actually happening. Not a dial. Not an average. The real ambient temperature. With a –13 to 122°F range and ±1.8°F accuracy, you see the environment your food, wine, plants, and projects truly live in.

Built for real-world conditions, SPOT features an IP67 waterproof housing, a powerful magnetic base, and an included mounting plate to stay exactly where you put it. The large auto-rotating display is easy to read at a glance. Max/min tracking exposes temperature swings over time. Efficient, light-activated electronics deliver up to 7,000 hours of battery life.

Place it. Track it. Stay in control.

  • Know What’s Happening in Your Spaces: ±1.8°F accuracy tells you whether temperatures stay safe.
  • Read It From Across the Room: The 1.3” auto-rotating display stays legible whether SPOT is on a shelf, wall, or ceiling.
  • Put It in Any Spot: A powerful magnet and included mounting plate let you attach SPOT to metal or non-metal surfaces without guessing.
  • Built for Cold, Damp, and Messy Spaces: An IP67 waterproof body keeps SPOT working inside fridges, freezers, and humid storage areas.
  • Track Temperature Over Time: Max and min readings reveal overnight freezes, warm door swings, and slow temperature drift.
  • Runs for Years on One Battery: A CR2032 lithium cell powers SPOT for up to 7,000 hours thanks to its light-activated display.
  • Verified to National Standards: Every SPOT includes a NIST-traceable calibration certificate for proven accuracy.

Reviews

I bought these for bread

"I bought these for bread proofing - finding a place for the dough to rise at the correct temperature. Now I use them everywhere, to check that precious pantry supplies are stored safely, to check on cooling lagging on these blazing hot days. The SPOT is a genius device - well designed, inconspicuously scaled, lightening fast!"

MICHELE D. (5/5)

Terrific

"This device is handier than pockets on a shirt. As many say here you buy one for a specific application and realize it has many around the house, and in the garage! I have one constructive comment. You don’t point out that in is Hi/Lo tracker until the last paragraph on the first page! That is the main feature! How cold did it get in my garage last night? Well now I know! Plus many other applications!! A great small gift ."

Rick T. (5/5)

All 4 locations, terrific for my needs.

"In the kitchen on outer side of refrigerator door for ambient temp reading. North & south side of patio by either door, quick ref. Inside garage shop for reference. I adjust my bi metallics using RH spots."

John R. (5/5)

Really like this SPOT. Used

"Really like this SPOT. Used it in Freezer, around the Condo to see effectiveness of air conditioning, and in the hall to have a measured value of the over cooling."

Ronald K. (5/5)

Works , but features are slimmed down from earlier

"I have one of these from a few years ago. On the new ones I just received, there is only one stick on metal plate to attach it to. The one I had before came with 3. The newer one has no markings in the battery compartment indicating which side goes up. It tells you on a small piece of paper, but that will soon be lost. Trivial I know, but another one of the many make it cheaper and charge more examples of today's economy."

Love these

"These are great. I now own several which I keep on different shelves of my fridge as well as my freezer. The display is very easy to read. I love that it illuminates when you open the refrigerator door. Highly recommend."

DAVID G. (5/5)

Wonderful Little Gadget!

"I purchased one for our refrigerator and loved it so much, I bought another for the freezer. Love that the screen activates when you open the door. I depend on Thermoworks products to be accurate and work as intended."
