    Got a Fieldpice and a Bacherach sling. It's advantageous to double check your instruments at regular intervals..

    This is true. Do you find that the Fieldpiece stays accurate compared to the sling?

    I use the Testo 605-H2.

    I drill a 1/2 hole using a step bit and insert the probe thru the panel. I plug the hole when complete.

    Well my sling is a hand-me-down and is pretty old, so it uses mercury filled thermometers which need no calibration (but the accuracy is as good as it gets in a sling).

    On a FP digital K-type WB thermometer the reading are as accurate as long as you keep it calibrated.

    Yeah, I got that WB instrument this winter. Be using it this summer for the first time. But I did experiment with it when it first came. The rubber cone I have with it holds it in place in the duct.
