For most RC needs like Motor/engine temperature, cheaper IR based thermometers are enough. You get ones on HK for $8 or so.

The one you mentioned above is Laser based and used in industries. IT is anyway too much over priced. You can get on from Hong Kong for as less as $20 (Rs 900) shipped to India.

Thanks for your guidence. Please explain what do you mean by "laser based". As far as I know the laser used in it, is for  aiming/pointing purpose only.
