Controly Classic Mercury-Free Thermometer

Controly Classic Mercury-Free Thermometer contains a liquid alloy of aluminum, indium and tin instead of mercury. This liquid is completely non-toxic and environmentally friendly, therefore the thermometer is completely safe for the user. Controly classic thermometer 1 piece is the perfect solution for the whole family.

The thermometer comes with a case with a magnifying glass effect, thanks to which temperature reading is extremely easy and comfortable, even for the elderly and visually impaired. In addition, the thermometer does not need an external power supply in the form of batteries, which is why its constant readiness to work is a great advantage, and the special tip makes it easy to shake off the liquid.
