I had to look 'emissivity' up in the dictionary Paul and I'm still non the wiser but no, I copied it from another forum. I just thought it was pretty 😀😀😀

I'm not sure Nigel, I would have thought 2 and 3, being in the middle, would run hotter than 1 & 4. So, with that in mind, No 2 is running cool and No 3 is OK. But, that is based purely on women's logic 😁😁😁

If it's not set correctly you will get readings which are miles off. Chrome exhausts will not read the same as dull aluminium and dull aluminium will not read the same as shiny aluminium  :) :)
