FLIR TG165 X Temperature Anomalies Rechargeable Review

product is good, works as described, unfortunately the front lens cover fell off, which explains the loose part noise coming from inside the case (3 screws fell out). It seems that some tried to fix this unit and sent it back to the seller. Not all items in the box came. The bracelet and the USB cable are missing. When I opened the box it looked like it was a product in an open box. Seller may need to change condition from NEW to USED or DEMO. Would have given 5 stars but paid for a new one and

Very poor heat detection quality. The image will not be identified unless there is a large difference in thermal drift. Photo 1: A person sitting in a chair and using a laptop 6 feet away. 2nd photo: ceiling light with incandescent bulb 10 feet away. There should be a Boomin heat source with a cool setting, but it doesn't capture the third photo well: a person's reflection in the window. The man holds a flirt. Captures reflected light and displays it as a heat source Save for c4 or E4 or E5…

This review is based on first impression as I only had it one day. I can say that I am absolutely impressed with the quality of this camera. I bought this primarily to find hot spots in my house so I can insulate appropriately. I live in Arizona and there are several areas in my home that stay noticeably warmer than others. Right out of the box I could find some uninsulated areas. In some places I could actually see tunnels behind the wall due to the dramatic difference in temperature between…

I bought this to use in class where we teach machine modifications for advanced lubrication techniques as it relates to equipment reliability. The first class I attended was also amazed when they saw why they had oxidation issues and where their critical gears were storing heat. I knew that thermography would have a positive impact on learning, but I didn't realize how much of a difference it would make for students to actually have the instrument in their hands during class. I'd say I wish I…

It was better than expected. The photos show the ceiling with a square light source, one with a camera, the other with a FLIR TG165. I didn't have to refer to the manual to work with it, which is very important to me. I'm one of those people who only read instructions when necessary. Simple menus for setting the date and other parameters. The ceiling shot shows a frame above the ceiling showing how the light was installed and what it looks like. I was able to find hidden sources of heat that I…

(Please note this Amazon page currently covers two products, TG165 and TG267.) tldr: 165 is great, 267 is very disappointing. big fan of my TG165 and have been using it for years to diagnose things around the house, find wet spots etc. When FLIR introduced the TG267 I decided to buy it. I figured I'd appreciate the higher resolution, better thermal sensitivity, etc. and give my older one to a friend. Instead, the 267 found a few major weaknesses: 1) The always-on "MSX Image Enhancement" is…

I'll keep it short and sweet: 1. Contrary to what is stated in the description, this device ABSOLUTELY DOES NOT MEASURES BODY TEMPERATURE AND CANNOT BE USED FOR IT. THAT IS AN EXCELLENT LIE. You can set the emissivity, but there is no setting for the stated temperature range. You "can" take body temperature, but it won't be accurate or consistent. This is a good (and fun) camera. I "hunted ghosts" all over the house with my grandchildren. With a little planning, you can leave heat signatures…
