Thermometer question for those temping

I bought a basal body temp thermometer from Access Diagnostics - looks exactly like all the ones on eBay (they all seem to be the same, white with a pink cap on the battery end).

Soooooo... it gives readings of 2 decimal places, and is supposed to be accurate to 1/100th of a degree. However, if you look at my chart on FF, you'll see that I'm on day 22, that one of the readings was xx.x0, and the other 21 have all been xx.x4. This suggests the thermometer is NOT accurate to 2 d.p., and as it always ends in a .x4, it might as well only have 1 d.p.

Has everyone else had this problem? If not, are you using a similar thermometer, or a different one? If different, where did you get it from, as I might buy a 2nd to double-check?

TIA!
 
I was advised to get a thermometer that only rounds to one decimal place as otherwise it gets confusing. I got mine from access diagnostics, think it was about a fiver.
