        Love that. Wish I could trade me non backlit one in. Seriously, the Thermapen is one of the bestest cooking tools I have. I have had lots of the cheap dial type units, but I never used them that much. I use the Thermapen all the time. When I nuke stuff, when I cook in the oven, and of course when I smoke and grill.

          Nice touch!!!
          I still own an original and have no plans to upgrade.
          If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

            I own an original also & still love it..... The back light would be handy I think, but not ready to upgrade...... A buddy just got a Maverick instant ready, or something like that ($100) and he likes it.... Anybody have one?

              Nope. Still have my super fast orange Thermapen. Like the backlit idea though. Can get the Maverick for under 50.00 on Amazon, but didn't like the reviews.

                I would only upgrade if my super-fast orange one stopped working, or of course if I hit the lottery.

                My best asset however is the inspiration from the members on this forum.

                  Love the intelligent backlit idea...

                  But 112 bucks...Man I could buy a lot of meat for that price...Guess Ill have to stick with my old superfast grey splashproof...

                    Great !!!

                    However I understand the HP needed for the Back-light, increases the "ET" by more than 0.3 seconds!!!

                      Good idea but it occurs to me that never once in all the years I have had my Thermapen did I wish it was backlit.
                      Orange is the fastest and I think it back lights itself!

                          I have one of the Mavericks, it works fine. Had it for a couple years. I have a Superfast Orange TP also, I use them both - whichever I grab.

                            I upgraded to lime green. Now I get temps at 2.9 secs instead of waiting the full 3secs.
