I'm a professional cook, and I've used these Taylor "pins" for many years. I don't know what happened, but they are nothing like they used to be. Complete junk. The whole top of the unit popped off when I pulled the battery tab. I popped it back on, but I couldn't get it to snap back into place properly. I figured it was OK but it didn't feel correct. First time I used it, the top came off again and pulled the wires out. I know it's only $7, but it's still complete junk. They also changed the buttons and changed the sheath. Look elsewhere. Sorry Taylor, you can't cut corners. Make it in the USA and just charge more, please.
