Which thermometer do you use?

I'm looking for an accurate thermometer. Currently I have two Lifeguards, but they are inconsistent. One is a small one and the other is the large one with two displays. Monitoring the same tank the small one always shows 2 degrees F lower than the other. Now which one do I trust? I'm looking into buying another one like the Pinpoint one, but have not heard anything about them. Which one do you use?

My controller has the temp probe built in (ReefKeeper). I have also use a ProHeat II digital heater that had a temp gauge built in. It was very accurate.
