Exclamation Refurb Thermapens

I just got off the phone with Thermoworks and they have some refurb thermapens in stock at reduced prices:
New Style - $75: blue, yellow (very few avail)
Old Style - $52: red, white (many avail)

They come with a 6month warranty (factory new come w/ 1yr)

You can contact Thermoworks @ 1-800-393-6434

I am going to bite on the blue one (I hear they are faster and more accurate)

Thanks, I bought 2 (1 green and 1 red), presents for my dad and brother. When they come in though I'm gonna tell the wife I bought them to see which is fastest. I've already got a blue one myself.

Yellow is best. That way if you drop it at night you can still see it.. Though I suspect white will work too

I got the last new style one. It is yellow and they assured me it was definitely the quickest and most accurate one they make.

Not to mention washing it after use. You can get the whole thing clean, not just the tip!
