Here's the temp gauge I use, had it for 2 years and it works very well and I'm still on the original battery.
i have 2 of those.

they read a little lower than the actual temp. when my savage was still nitro, the duratrax temp gun read 245F while my venom direct contact (loops around engine head or motor) gauge read 290F. i compared the venom gauge with a high-end temp gun and it is very accurate. with my brushless motors, the duratrax generally reads only 10-15F lower than the venom gauge.


They say a good mechanic only needs 2 tools - WD40 & Duct tape. If it moves, and its not supposed to, duct tape. If it doesn't move, and its supposed to, WD40.
