Our version of Harbor Frieght is a company called Princess Auto, named for its first location, on Princess Street in Winnipeg, carried that same unit, it works well and after 3 or 4 years is still working just fine.

It is cheap, and worth every penny.

You pay tax & shipping at Frightening HarborCANADIANS and other life forms (Quebecois) they have a warehouse in Maple Leaf LandNever used one of these but i am assuming that they would measure the temps somewhat accurately inside the fridge? If so i will order one immediately !!!!Thanks a bunch for the info and link.Upon further review it appears the fridge temps have to be measured with the door open. Sigh, if it sounds to be good to be true....,

I have an older model of what I assume to be the same HF "cheapie" and have been very happy with it for several years. Yes, big whitey, I think it would serve the purpose you're asking about

How does Harbor Fright NOT do it? They've opened too many outlets and some are losers. The company is priming itself for Chapter 11 or 13.

Nah. They just bet they will fail, in a hedge fund.

China flies pure cargo to LAX via Airbus flights. The aircraft are much larger than a 747. No boxes, and strict packaging rules. One airplane can haul an enormous cargo - a hundred tons?

Free shipping and no tax is actually extremely unfair to US and Canadian vendors. But US shippers are charging twelve bucks to send a 2 oz envelope coast to coast.

And remember your state and federal government loves high prices on fuel. Revenue at unbelievable levels. Making transportation punitive.Oh please please please Mr. Oil Company! Stop lowering your prices!

Good link, Mex! Seemed like the Canada warehouse just took longer to ship, but less money, so I opted for that. Appreciate the tip! ST

Thanks SaltiDawg,

Harbor Fright is getting carried away with themselves with price increases. If I order to be shipped to my PO Box, they add nine percent tax + $7.00 shipping. Like MPJA in Florida ya gotta watch the shipping cost.

I've been using one from Radio Shack for maybe 15 years. it's a lot smaller and cost about $40 back then.
I use it for checking tires.
Been very happy with it. Have found a soft tire a couple of times.
