Goodbaby No-Touch Forehead Thermometer
A reading in one second from an inch away, so you never wake a sleeping baby to take it. A large backlit screen you can read in the dark and an alarm when the number is high.

When you just want a quick, no-touch reading without fiddling with settings at 3am, this one keeps it to a single button. The 3-color fever alarm on the large backlit screen means you can tell at a glance if it's bad news without squinting or doing math in your head.
