Oven Thermometer Update or How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love My Oven

So as I mentioned buying an Admetior oven thermometer a couple weeks ago because I thought my oven temp wasn't accurate.  Well, turns out I was wrong.  The built in oven thermometer and the Admetior thermometer were very close, within 5 degrees.  The problem is it took the oven much longer than i though to get up to the set temp.  I think it was about 20 or so minutes. So i wasted money but at least now I know.

Oven Temperature

I'm getting to be pretty sure my built in oven thermometer isn't correct (i think it runs low) and i'm planning to start bread baking.  With bread and baking in general accurate temperate is a must, so I ordered this http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003EDY97U/ref=ox_ya_os_product thermometer today.  I'll be back once its delivered to report on it and my oven.   I'm also planning to get one of the laser instant temp readers.  That lets you take an oven temp (but you have to open to oven door) and you can get instant reads on oil temperatures for frying too.  They only run about 20 bucks.
