That is pretty awesome. And yes, while not like super cheap, compared to the FLiR stuff, much more affordable. I'd like to have one for the bench as well as roaming around the house to spot any gaping heat/cooling loss spots.
Definitely a good move, and that is a great price Now you can check voltages, check temperatures, check the clock, check the CPU bus logic etc..., then check the fuse :)
Definitely! I've been using it quite a bit on circuit boards - one type of fault is when there's a shorted component like a capacitor or IC - it'll glow red-hot and be easily visible against all of the other components.
Mine arrived today from Ali-Express - £119 UK. There was a sale on a few weeks back when I ordered this but can be bought cheaply if you keep an eye on the website.
It is nice experience to get seasick without even leaving the house, just by viewing a video. You may change your title to "restless engineer". Any time you touch something it is moving like over the screen like crazy. Maybe a constructive idea if you do such a video about something "Thermal" again. If you got more than one thermometer, measure the temperature by pointing one at the other. So you can clearly see a difference. Next, why do you use this camera only for one distance on your table? Don't you think it may be of interest how it may perform at maybe 3 and 10 meters? You could keep your video just as long, but make it less boring. Your waving the closed box with the camera around for minutes is not really giving any information.

That sounds like hard work ... "keep buying on ebay until you get a working one" sounds much easier! :)

hi,
can you recommend it for home use, circuit board repair etc?

$666 - the perfect price for something designed to see hot stuff 🤘🤘
Always wanted one of them but that is still a bit out of my price range.
I usually cheat and use PayPal's Pay-in-4 option, so about AU$70 a fortnight

oh..nice new toy!
Maybe tax write-off to cover my TH-cam income ... ? 😇
I've been meaning to ask if you'd be interested in trying some of your magic on my CPC664?
@@Brfff sure.. let me know when ya wanna drop it over..
I guess plated through holes added too much to the cost, or maybe their PCB factory couldn't give that option.
