Reuben Heaton Digital Air/Water Thermometer,
Knowing the precise temperature of the water can be a huge asset when you’re fishing. Water temperature can determine a huge number of things, not least how much the fish are likely to be feeding, what sort of species you’re best of targeting, and what tactics to use. After all, you don’t want to be plumbing the depths with a PVA bag if the water is still wintery! Similarly, you’re going to want to avoid using sickly-sweet baits and additives once the temperature starts hitting bigger figures, too. Knowing the water temperature as soon as you reach can make all the difference between a successful session and a disappointing one. This is where the Reuben Heaton Digital Air/Water Thermometer comes into play.
As the name suggests, this thermometer can tell you the temperature of the air as well as the water. It boasts a huge temperature range – reaching from minus 50 degrees Celsius right up to 70 degrees above freezing. This means that not matter the conditions on the bank, you’ll be able to accurately know the temperature above and below the water. What’s more, it is accurate to within 1 degree! You can set the temperature to be read in Celsius or Fahrenheit, so whether you use new money or old you will still be able to know the temperature with precision.
The Reuben Heaton Digital Air/Water Thermometer is manufactured with an ultra-tough ABS plastic case. Not only is this water resistant but it is also super-durable – ensuring that it can withstand all the usual bumps, knocks, and scrapes which come part and parcel with life on the bank. The display itself is LCD and it has been backlit for clarity. You’ll never struggle to read the information on this thermometer. It also boasts a minimum/maximum memory function, so you can leave it running throughout your session to get a map of the temperature over time. The external waterproof sensor has been designed for permanent immersion, so you can enjoy an accurate temperature reading throughout your time on the bank. What’s more, it has been fitted with a 3m cable. This means that you don’t have to settle for simply mapping the temperature on the surface of the water – which can be several degrees warmer than the depths. By submerging this sensor deep under the water, you can get an accurate reading of the kinds of temperatures that your fish are experiencing – whether you’re on a carp fishing mission or you’re looking to enjoy the first coarse fish of the season.
The Reuben Heaton Digital Air/Water Thermometer is travel-friendly and, with dimensions of 110mm x 70mm x 20mm, it is completely pocket sized. This means that you can store it in any pocket of your angling luggage so that it is ready for use whenever you need it. Weighing it at less than 100g, it will hardly make a dint on the overall weight of your angling gear, too. The thermometer comes supplied in its own water resistant pouch, for ease of storage and to prevent any accidental water damage. It is powered by one 1.5V AAA battery, which comes supplied with the system. As with all Reuben Heaton products, you can enjoy the benefits of full after sales support, too, so, should you every encounter any difficulties, the dedicated Reuben Heaton team are on hand to help.
