Default Thermometers

I'm looking for suggestions on good thermometers for my cooker. I'm looking to install a couple at grate level and don't know which route to go currently. Thanks.

I recently bought a River Country for about $17 and put it on my UDS. So far it seems to be accurate. It's adjustable and easy to read.

Not sure this is exactly what you are looking for, but I bought a couple for my Chaney and they work well. http://cgi.ebay.com/2-BARBECUE-GRILL...tDomain_0&hash
