A $30.95 non-contact thermometer with three sensors, a vibration alert and an eight-second auto-off. It answers one question fast and keeps no record of the answer.

The $83.99 5 Series (BP7255) keeps the same 9-to-17-inch cuff and Bluetooth sync as the cheaper 3 Series, then adds a 30-reading memory, a counter for irregular heartbeats, a larger labeled display, and included batteries. Here is what OMRON states, and what it leaves to your clinician.

Omron's $59.99 BP7150 is on the AMA-backed Validated Device Listing and carries a two-year monitor warranty, but it holds 14 readings for one person and ships without batteries or an adapter.

$59.99 buys the ear thermometer whose Age Precision feature re-cuts fever thresholds at 3 and 36 months, and whose filters, at the cheapest third-party covers, run about five cents a reading.
