How deep does the tip need to be inserted to get a valid reading?

To get the best reading I find it needs to be in the center of the meat or whatever you're cooking. For instance if I'm cooking a roast I put it in about half way and wait for the temperature to get to it's reading. Hope this helps.

If you mean, "does the support interfere with reading because its extends beyond the bottom margin into the text?"-It would depend on the size of the margin. The supports extend about 1" on the bottom of the page. However, they're so thin and easy to slide back and forth that I've not experience much difficulty reading the final line or two of text even if it extends into the text of the page.

The tip is sturdy, however be mindful you shouldn't press it against the paper as a normal pen. Sakura recommends to use it at a 90 degree angle and not to add a lot of pressure when using it. I've owned several and no broken tips.

Extension only, no tip. It may look like there is a tip with the extension, but that is just the holder for a tip.

5 1/2 CM or 2.16535 (just under 2 1/4 inches) from tip to tip, I checked a green one but I imagine there all the same.

Yes , The pins are strong enough. They do not need to penetrate very far to get an accurate reading. Keep in mind to get the best reading , freshly split the wood an then test.

I can't say if this will be your experience, but I recently ordered this item and received the straight tip. It didn't occur to me until I plugged it in just how accustomed I'd been to having the 90-degree tip that was on my OEM charger. But honestly, after a couple of days, it no longer mattered to me. This has been working great.

I have gotten an accurate reading with only 1/2 inch of penetration. One inch is more than enough.

depends on what you are doing on the laptop. the tip is too large for intricate work but ok for larger terminals

The sensors are on the tip but to get an accurate temp of the meat you are cooking, I would think that you would need to insert it to the middle.

Probably. With the disintegrated tip, it most likely won't work correctly. I just poke mine in, take the reading and then pull it out again.

Quite honestly I doubt the machine tolerances or qc is strong enough to provide a consistent tip size. I ordered two of these and they felt very cheap and poorly designed.

The tips I ordered where for a finer tipped stylus. From what I can see on Amazon it looks like you would have to order a different tip.

You have to pull the tip, it might be hard to pull so be careful not to hurt yourself.

Off hand I would say no as it needs to hit something to read it i.e. walls, furniture , floors etc. However it probably can locate the source of the draft by its readings. For example I located a corner of the door leaking air by its 20 degree drop in temp. I have also used it to check the oven temp and the surface of hot liquids such as coffee. I use it more often than I thought I would.

Hi Don... To get a fresh reading, set your Level on a flat surface. Set the Level by pushing the 'Zero' button, and It should read, '0.00'. Now it's ready for the surface you desire to work on. If reseting to, '0.00' fails, you may have to recalibrate your "Accuremote" settings, again.

If by tip sensitive you mean can you touch a surface with it and get a reading the answer is yes. However I don't know the + or - of how accurate it is.
