Default Oven Thermometer Accuracy

About a year back I purchased a Heston Blumenthal badged Salter oven
thermometer.

My fan assisted oven does appear to switch on and off a few times before
appearing to settle at the correct temperature.

Recently I purchased a Lakeland own brand oven thermometer for a
relative and decided to check against mine, it reacted to temperature a
lot quicker than the salter and read around 10c more.

I am only a personal cook, casseroles, bread rolls, pasties and other
pastry types and haven't experienced any obvious problem but any
suggestions as to confirming accuracy of gauge.
