Exo Terra Infra Red Thermometer

The Exo Terra Infrared Thermometer PT2474 is a compact, lightweight point-and-click surface thermometer designed for reptile keepers who need accurate, instant temperature readings without disturbing their animals or setup. A single button press delivers an immediate reading on a large digital display — no probes, no contact, no fuss.

What It Measures

This thermometer is built for the full range of temperature checks a reptile keeper needs. Use it to verify basking spot surface temperatures, check the floor of a hiding cave or shelter, monitor incubation media, assess hibernation conditions, or take your reptile's body temperature directly. It's equally useful during field trips for on-the-spot readings in natural habitats.

Ambient Temperature Gradients

To map a temperature gradient across your vivarium, hold the button down and the unit continuously measures ambient temperature as you move it along. Release the button and the last recorded reading stays on screen — a straightforward way to identify hot and cool zones without needing multiple thermometers.

LED Targeting Light

A built-in LED targeting light shows exactly which spot is being measured and indicates the diameter of the measured surface area. This is particularly useful when checking temperatures in low-light conditions — inside hides, behind branches, beneath leaf litter, or anywhere a probe thermometer simply can't reach cleanly.

Compact enough to keep in a pocket and precise enough for serious husbandry, the Exo Terra Infrared Thermometer PT2474 is a practical tool for any keeper who takes temperature management seriously.
