Mini Pro Bath
Product Code : EL-LWB-11104
Last updated: 6 October 2026
Quick answer: A budget round water bath reaching ambient to 100 degrees C, able to boil water, with a cover tall enough for a 500 mL round media bottle and an extra-wide base to prevent tipping. Temperature accuracy +/-2.0 degrees C; thermometer not included.
This is the simplest bath in the family and the listing is honest about what it is for: general laboratory applications such as keeping media warm. It reaches ambient to 100 degrees C and the listing notes it can boil water, so it also serves for melting agar or a quick denaturation.
Two design points are genuinely useful. The polymer cover is tall enough to fit over a 500 mL round media bottle, which most compact baths cannot accommodate, and the base is extra wide to prevent tipping, which matters on a bath full of hot water. The exterior is described as rugged and resistant to dents and cracks, and the unit is light and compact enough to move where needed. Inside dimensions are 10.5 cm diameter by 6.5 cm high, outside 20.3 cm by 11.4 cm, at 2.3 lb.
The accuracy is where the budget shows: +/-2.0 degrees C, against +/-0.2 on the digital baths in this family. Temperature is set by a control knob which, the listing states, requires a thermometer for precise calibration, and the thermometer is not included. In practice that means you set the knob against a thermometer you supply and accept a two degree band.
That is acceptable for warming media. It is not suitable for enzyme incubations, restriction digests or heat-shock steps where two degrees changes the outcome. For those, use one of the digital baths in this family.

This listing publishes a full specification. Confirm the supply voltage before ordering: the published rating is 120 V AC, which is not the Indian mains standard; ask whether a 220 to 240 V, 50 Hz version is available. Note the +/-2.0 degrees C accuracy makes this unsuitable for enzyme incubations, digests or heat-shock steps, and no thermometer is supplied despite the knob needing one for calibration.
