As the author of the second link points out:

What Is Au Jus and How Do I Use It?

Au jus (pronounced like “zhoo”) is a French culinary term meaning “with juice.”

Yes. So why do so many people, including the author, not call it "jus"? The "au" makes no sense, unless "with" is part of the message you want to convey.

I bought a Thermopen (different model that yours) and used it maybe once a week. Within a year or two it was dead and I tossed it. Disappointing.

I then bought another less expensive brand on Amazon and it also crapped out after about a year (changed the battery, but it would still go into a funk). I contacted the company and they sent me a replacement, which has been going strong for several years now.
