Part 1. Types and Comparisons of Body Temperature Thermometer
As for gauging body temperature, there are different types of thermometers, including mercury thermometers and digital thermometer. For some digital thermometer that can be put on or adhere to head, chest, armpit, stomach and wrist, we call them wearable thermometer. Nowadays, mercury thermometers are fading out and electronic thermometer takes the place of it. Why smart temperature monitor are better choice in recent year? Let’s check the clues below:
1. Smart Thermometer Shows Results Faster
2. Smart Thermometer Are More Accurate
3. Smart Thermometer is Safer for Kids
4. Smart Thermometer is More Hygienic
5. Smart Thermometer Has More Advanced Features
1. Smart Thermometer Shows Results Faster
If you know how a mercury thermometer works, you would get my point:
A mercury thermometer is a glass tube sealed in both end and with mercury contained in the bottom bulb and part of the tube. When heating medium involved, we just wait for the mercury inside to swell and raise the mercury column up. Wait patiently and you will see the result shows on the scale. It takes about a few minutes for this whole process to finish.

On the contrary, a bluetooth thermometer has no delay for temperature reading. The result is just shown on its tiny display screen in no time.

2. Smart Thermometer Are More Accurate
Some might worry that wifi temperature monitor thermometer will be less accurate. Actually, electronic body thermometers have a thermocouple sensor inserted inside the probe. Therefore, it’s much more accurate to read temperature even though it doesn’t have a calibration.
3. Smart Thermometer is Safer for Kids
Mercury thermometer is a glass tube carrying a mercury column inside. Glass are fragile and mercury are toxic chemicals and difficult to clean up when spill out. It’s so dangerous if we take temperature in a toddler’s mouth. They might snap the mercury thermometer while taking temperature and get hurt by glass and mercury. In recent years, It’s not allowed to sell mercury thermometer to customers in some countries for safety concerns.

On the other hand, wireless bluetooth thermometer utilizes metal components and electronic circuits rather than mercury, which are more eco-friendly and kids-friendly. They always come with a durable shell, which are not easily broken.
4. Smart Thermometer is More Hygienic
There are different methods to take children’s temperature at different ages:
- Rectal (in the bottom) - for children under 3 years old;
- Oral (in the mouth) - for 4-5 years old;
- Armpit (under the arm) - to make sure whether your baby is having a fever, this could be your first choice, but less accurate;

I clean the mercury thermometer thoroughly before and after taking children’s temperature but I still concern about the hygiene issue, worrying that there are still bacterial and virus on it. So, I buy many thermometers to make sure each of us have one on our own and tell them apart with the name labels attach on each thermometer. Still worry about the cross infection issue because I put them in the same drawer.

5. Smart Thermometer Has More Advanced Features
Last but not least, smart thermometers enable us to attach the button-size thermometer on babies' body and track body temperature remotely on your smartphone with your bluetooth turned on.
Therefore, an alternative temperature taking method to get body temperature in a more superficial, disposable, sanitary way and with more advanced features integrated into one would be prefer.
