I've got the kraton exb on the way with a max 6 combo. It sounds like it would be a very good idea to keep an eye on motor/esc temps. I'm new to the hobby. Does anyone have a suggestion on a good but (ideally) somewhat inexpensive temp gauge? What do you guys use?
 
I suggest not buying this one. I can’t be trusted and it wasn’t cheap. I’m starting to trust my fingers on the end of the motor for temp checks.

What temp is your finger calibrated to? Lol

I found a "protek trutemp ir thermometer" on amain. I think I'll try that unless someone doesn't like these...
 
Ryobi infrared temp gun, it’s off by a degree or 2 but that doesn’t matter.
 
I’ve got a infrared gun with a nice laser on it to see exactly where it’s pointing. I’ve also got a seek thermal imager in case I need to identify hotspots.
