Title: This thermometer is useless
Product review: My Taylor Tru-Temp model 3518N cooking thermometer shuts itself off after 10 minutes. It does not wake up when the temperature changes. It does not wake up when the alarm should sound. I assumed that my unit must be defective, and wrote to Taylor's customer service department. They replied that this is the expected behavior - they referred to this as the 'battery saver' feature. It cannot be disabled. Unless you are willing to keep turning the thermometer back on every 10 minutes to check the temperature, do not purchase this item. It is useless for anything that takes longer than 10 minutes to cook.
