Review on Discover Hidden Thermal Changes with BLACK+DECKER TLD100 Thermal Detector by Ron Houston

Let me start by saying that I was convinced that this product was going to be a piece of junk. How it is. First, let me say that I'm an engineer by profession. I have a bachelor's degree in mechanical and electrical engineering and am currently working on my master's degree in mechanics. I work with thermistors, RTDs, and microprocessors every day. I knew this thing was going to be a piece of junk when I bought it. In fact, I was so convinced that I decided to return it before I even opened it and bought Fluor instead. To attempt. I'm glad I did. It's not the most sophisticated device you'll ever buy. But it costs $30 and does what it says on the tin. Actually not bad. The polling rate is a little slow and the accuracy is a little questionable, but it gives you a good idea of what's going on. Take a photo and repeat. That's still my plan. But I'm not going to crawl on all fours with FLIR looking for leaks. However, I will do it with this device. Styrofoam, sealant, fiberglass insulation. He doesn't care what sticks to him, and neither do I. When it runs out, I'll buy another one. The FLIR is a broad stroke while the B&D leak detector is the fine tip needed to speed up a project. I would recommend it to anyone looking for a device of this nature. What can go wrong with $30 and Revain's return policy? However, you must purchase a 9 volt battery. I don't know what to do about it if you send the B&D back. Maybe buy RC car deal at radio store.
