Simple Temperature Data Logging

5.0

Best thermometer data logging I have used so far. Recording and extracting raw data is easy and straightforward. Customer and tech supports are great to work it.

Good features, challenging user interface

4.0

Functionally, the SDL200 works well, has a good size read out, etc. If you expect to use it frequently, the funny interface is ok to navigate... but no better than just ok. If you use it infrequently, you will find your self struggling with the manual to remember how to change settings. For a lab tech, it may be a fine tool. For a less tech savvy operator expected to use it less than weekly, it could quickly become burdensome and prone to mistakes. If you use it in a set it and forget it scenario to view the display only, no problem at all. It even remembers the time for short battery changes. The data collection to SD card is very well laid out and very easy to use... once set up. No special software or IR connections like FLUKE requires to give you headaches. Plus, it comes with an ample 4GB SD card, and can accept up to a 16GB card (according to the manual). Compare that to FLUKE. That's a whole lot of data to open directly in excel or import into a database. Getting it setup to record data to SD card requires navigating those pesky menus. As I stated earlier, if you do it a lot, no big deal, but it is definitely NOT intuitive. Don't lose the manual. TEquipment usually keeps NIST certified units in stock, so you probably won't have to wait any extra time to get a NIST unit.
