Default Balancing radiators

I understand radiator balancing to mean, with the TRV set to maximum,
closing the other valve to create a temperature differential of some
suitable value between inlet and outlet.

Is it necessary/advisable/prudent/worthwhile to do so? What is the
'suitable' value for the differential? Where do I get suitable clip on
thermometers, and what are they called?

TIA

Richard
