Stovers,
I was running an experiment using shinny stove pipe as a 'stove' and using
the IR detector was measuring the temperature on the outside of the pipe. It
read about 30c. But was much higher as noted when I tried to hold the pipe.
Is this inaccuracy due to the reflective surface? I am thinking of painting
the surface black to get an accurate reading if it is. I would guess the
pipe to be ~200 to 300c - not the 30 that was indicated.
Thanks
Frank
