    Temperature Probe

    I have a Fluke 787 and with it I have a temp probe as an accessory. Does anybody use this probe with their fluke for taking temperatures in the lines to establish super heat/ sub cool. It looks like it may be accurate enough. I also have a thermocouple that goes with it but it doesn't look like it has the accuracy needed.

    Can you recommend a temp probe for around $100.00 to measure temp/wet bulb ??

    Until I bought my Digicools, I used 2 K type thermocouples with a pair of Fluke 52-2 thermometers to do superheat and subcooling readings.

    I think the standard bead type probes are pretty cheap and plenty accurate enough for most work.
