My plumber saw my garage setup and said something about my annealer

He was fixing a pipe and noticed my old kiln, then asked if I ever checked the actual temp with a separate gauge. I'd been trusting the dial for years... but when I borrowed a pyrometer, it was off by almost 50 degrees. Anyone else had a tool reading be that wrong?

Plumbers aren't temperature experts. That dial was good enough for years, right?

Wait, you've been using the same water heater setting for years without checking it?

Did he say what kind of gauge to get? Now I'm worried about my own dials being way off.
