Finally, someone who knows how to explain things. I'm not sure how much time and effort you put into what you were going to say, but it was fantastic! Clear and precise with no detritus, annoying music, or even worse, no speech at all. Well done.
Just got a Infrared thermometer. This video was great. Thanks for providing this info and you did a great job making it understandable.
Probably the best video on youtube on these things
Not sure how I got here but glad I did. Thanks for the good review.
nice explanation Thanks
Awesome breakdown, friend!
Very nicely done. thank you
Awesome video. Great info
Thanks for these info
Thank you! Now I understand the Spot Ratio and how to apply it.
This is the way informative videos should be.
remember when THIS was the norm for youtube instructables?
Informative. Thanks.
Good job thank you
Great explanation!
I can’t say that I knew this info, I just picked up a Kobalt model and they make it pretty hard actually to use it wrong. It’s 12:1 spot ratio but it has a ring of lasers with one center bright one. Unfortunately the unit doesn’t come with a single shred of instructions so I came to TH-cam to see if I could find a review and found this instead. Great video!
The Kobalt unit does have the ability to turn the lasers off so it can be more useful if you wanted to check someone’s temperature and not risk blinding them. I bought it to see temperature differences in my house and maintain flue temps in my stove.
Does your Kobalt say that it is human contact compatible? Most of these are not. You have to get specific ones for measuring temp of live subjects.
Really helpful all these explanations, Thx
I needed this video, I got one and you really help me, thanks 🙏🏽
Gr8 job. Well understandable content
Just got one of these, great video, thanks for your clear explanation!
Very helpful on how to use an IR effectively. This will help me to be more accurate. Thank you!
crystal clear! thanks
Very informative. Ty
This is very helpfull. Thank you very much❤
Thank you very much
Well said.
i want a better pyrometer for dabing. dabrite, terpometer. and terptimers are all junk and all over100-500$. diy it is i guess lol. thanks for this. maybe ill try the fluke first
Just bought a pizza oven with a stone and picked up a 12:1 gun. If I wanted to get the average temp of the entire stone, that would mean I’d have to stand further away otherwise I’m going to get the temp for a very small portion of stone. I’m going to try it out tomorrow, I’m so curious. Then I’m going to take 3 different readings, from the center of the stone, 1/3 out, then the edge. Thanks for this, I watched 2 others and neither did a good job explaining. The flashlight was a brilliant visual.
Yes that is correct. One thing to note. Shooting the oven perpetual is the best for accuracy. And if you get really low angle like 10-20 degrees you might be very inaccurate (at super low angles of approach it's like the measure reflects off the surface). Just fyi
@@fridayswithbrandon makes sense, thank you.
@@fridayswithbrandon Thanks for the tip.
Thanks 👍
Hello there, thank you for the info. Very helpful. I have one question. I got an IR from Mitchell MITMTN3 class ll laser. Distance : spot =8:1. I need it to measure the temp of the transmission panel while doing the flush and fill. So if I understood correctly, I have to be 8 inches away from the transmission panel to get the correct readings? Thank you for your help!
8 inches away will give you a 1 inch circle reading that you are taking the average of everything in that 1 inch circle.
Question, could you use one to shoot into a incubator and measure the temperature through the plastic without opening????
No the plastic will not let the infrared radiation pass through it. If you installed an IR window that could work. Like the CV300
@@fridayswithbrandon thanks so much Brandon, i will look into that right away. Much love from North Carolina
my two points merge as i go further, why is that so?
I'm assuming your talking about the lasers on the 62 MAX+? Regardless it's because the way it's designed it essentially starts slightly wide like the size of the sensor or distance of the lasers from one another. Then closes/crosses in on itself then continues in the same direction outward forever.
will an infared thermometer work on members mark stainless steel griddle
No, not without changing the surface with tape or paint. The emissivity is too low on stainless steel.
@@fridayswithbrandon With one of the flukes that allow changing of emissivity, do you still need black tape/paint?
@@irondome7334 it depends. It it's very low emmissivity like, .6 or below you still would not get an accurate reading by adjusting the emmissivity without changing the surface of the object by painting it or putting tape on it.
Thanks for your knowledge. Do thermal imagers also suffer from emissivity issues on highly reflective surfaces?@@fridayswithbrandon
@@irondome7334 yes same physics principle.
Maybe not acurate tool for an AHU dumper?
Yes probably not very accurate for that application. Probably will see mostly reflections.
Will This work to determine your sauna temperature
It will tell you the surface temp of the wood you point it at but not the air temp.
Would these be accurate for fish tank water temperature?
probably not the best/right tool for that job. I would go with an aquarium thermometer.
@@fridayswithbrandon Thanks for the reply, I have several fish tank thermometers, and no two give the same temperature. sometimes a slight temp change can make a big difference to some fish.
Cherokee or Choctaw?!
I actually always went to K-7 and we didn't have tribes at K-7.
i feel so lucky to find tjis video... 99% are BS
I can't believe that you felt this was necessary to mention. Someone who can't read that when it's right there on the tool, is probably too dumb to not point the laser in their eye anyway, so shouldn't even be allowed to have access to one. Better to mention who really needs the $160 Fluke and who would be an idiot to pay that much for it when the generics are under $10 and up. Yes I'm aware it has two dots. Woohoo. For that price I'd expect a laser circle even if it took a half dozen laser heads and optics to get there, and for it to include a miniature gnome in the box to use it for me, lol. Hint to people that don't understand: The Fluke is not a high precision, lab grade instrument so it is madness to pay that much for it. Get the real deal or don't, but don't overpay for the name.
Besides, it's a crappy design. Printed on, rubber silicone button markings wear off. You should never accept that on any but the cheapest of equipment. I wouldn't be surprised if Fluke will sell you a new button membrane, for more than the whole tool is worth.
OMG. Why this video? Is it to hard to read the manual?!
I have a cheap Chinese £10 one and a Chinese Fluke £40 one,guess what they are Chinese, guess what they don’t give the same readings 2 times in succession so how do I know which is closest calibration. Fluke no,cheap one no.FLUKE used to be built in America trusted make, China copies Fluke charges Fluke prices same same.Rolex £20 looks the same as £5000 Rolex
Liar dealer. He didn't do calibration. Body temperature measured from a distance of 1 meter is 37.5 degrees Celsius.
You can't accurately measure body temperature with most of these types of units unless it specifically states it is accurate for live subject readings.
