The Escali thermometer is extremely compact, folding down to approximately 4.5", making it highly portable and the perfect size for a pocket. Despite its small size, it features a large backlit display that is easy to read in all lighting conditions and from various angles. A magnet on the back allows the thermometer to attach to a grill or other metallic surfaces for convenient access while cooking. Additionally, a hanging hole provides an option for storage on a hook, helping to keep the unit organized and off cluttered countertops or drawers.
