Chad's Crappy Corner & Another Gadget For His Theme For June.


Chad came up with a different idea for the June theme. He polled our loyal Patreon members and had them vote of a type of store Chad where should buy all the gadgets for the month of June. That way listeners would have a better chance of finding the same item Chad reviewed at a store near them. Our Patreon members picked “Large Drug Store Chains” as the place Chad should find Cheap Gadgets for June. So at his local CVS Chad bought the:
Vicks Smart Tempature Wireless Digital Thermometer. Chad likes this device a lot! Just download the app and you'll be able to take and track temperature readings for the entire family. (I believe Chad said it keeps records for up to four different people.) The thermometer uses Bluetooth to wirelessly connect to your smartphone. It doesn't have a readout of its own, but it sends a large digital readout to your phone screen. There's a feature called Fever InSight that changes your phone screen from green to yellow to red, depending on the temperature readout. And boy, is it fast. Watch this week's video of the show to see how fast it recorded Chad's temperature. The company says “Professionally accurate readings in 8 seconds.” It can be set for “For oral, rectal or underarm use.” There's only one very flexible probe permanently attached to the thermometer, but you do get a storage cap and battery. Best of all, it's inexpensive. Chad said he paid a bit under $20 at his local CVS, but it under $14 on Amazon. And it's Amazon Prime, so free 2-day shipping for Prime Members.
