Where to buy an analogue thermometer?

Sky King

Can anyone tell me where one would procure an old-skool thermometer with fairly high resolution (0.1C) and a range from about -10 to about +10 Celcius.

I tried Argos, Woodies, Maplin etc. Head is wrecked looking.

I could probably do with a digital one as well but really I need the analogue.

Thanks.

This one does -20 to +10C ( std part no ASTM 89C )

Bit pricey though!

Whoa that's steep!

Thanks for your help though.

I wonder if the guys on the weather forum might be of some help?

It'd need a bit of calibration and mightn't be the most accurate but you could make a nice analogue one yourself using a thermistor in a bridge with a panel meter.

Theres a 300mm long, Red Spirit filling thermometer, Range -10ºC/+50°C
Measures about 70mm between -10 and +10 deg C ie about 3.5mm/degC

Would a temperature gauge be suitable?

Yes.
Yes it would.
