What is the difference between ThermoPop 2 and the original ThermoPop?

The new ThermoPop 2 is superior to the original ThermoPop in many ways, including…

• Bigger, bolder display ThermoPop 2 has a 33.33% larger screen window and 20% taller digits than the original ThermoPop.
• Thinner profile While the display is larger, ThermoPop 2 actually has a 20% thinner profile than the original ThermoPop. Perfect for a chef coat pocket.
• Motion-sensing auto-rotating display Use your left or right hand in any position—even upside-down—and the display automatically rotates right-side-up. The original ThermoPop requires you to push a button to rotate the screen.
• Twice as accurate ThermoPop 2 is accurate to ±1°F (0.5°C) over much of its range. The original ThermoPop is accurate to ±2°F (1°C).
• Faster readings ThermoPop 2 takes full readings in 2-3 seconds. The original ThermoPop takes full readings in 3-4 seconds.
• Fully waterproof ThermoPop 2 is fully waterproof (IP67). The original ThermoPop is splash-proof (IP66).
• NSF Certified ThermoPop 2 is NSF Certified. The original ThermoPop is not.
• NIST-traceable certificate Each ThermoPop 2 includes a NIST-traceable certificate with actual test data verifying its accuracy to national standards. The original ThermoPop does not.

Both ThermoPop 2 and the original ThermoPop have a an easy-hold head with a grippy rubber strip, bright backlight you can activate with the press of a button, include a protective probe sheath, come with 2-year warranties, and were designed in Utah by ThermoWorks. Both are suitable for use in a professional kitchen.

Are there any other differences between the 4.5-inch and 8-inch probe models?

Probe length and price are the most important differences. The 4.5-inch probe is suitable for almost all applications. The longer 8-inch probe is better for some specialized applications like home brewing, checking wine temps, cheese making, deep frying with a pot clip (it keeps the display further away from the splattering hot oil), large batches of soup, and commercial applications like food processing.

The 8-inch probe is also slightly thicker in diameter to support the greater length and has a one second slower response time.
