    I am going to DIY solar system and this will be great for making the house efficient before sizing the system and to check the connection after! Great review thanks!

    The sensor resolution is 32 x 32.
    Frame rate is 9 Hz.
    NETD: 150 mK
    Those specs are about as low as you can get, but it's still cool to see this technology slowly becoming more available to the common consumer. A NETD of 150 mK means it will be able to detect a 0.27°F difference in temperature.

      New 2nd generation Rx-350 from China has 160x120 - so twice, (or arguably if you multiply it, 18.75x) greater resolution,
      (avoid original generation rx350's) and now less than 50mk - and is ~$149 shipped to your door.
      That's how fast this aspect of the industry is moving. This camera that he reviews is 3+ year old technology.

      @@iadr I just checked that out on aliexpress. The display screen is 160x120, while the sensor resolution is only 80x60. Not great, but better than the harbor freight one and still really good for the price! Sensor resolution is mostly what determines how much detail can be seen. Every thermal camera that I'm aware of will have a higher display resolution than sensor resolution. Combined with it's visible light image overlay, it should give you a usable picture.

      I saw somebody on line using this for detecting hives in walls however my home has older plaster and something walls with mesh and neither of my thermal cameras can see through my walls in my home.
      I do know it does not see through glass very well at all, and there are different thermal camera technologies. If you're going to use it for that specifically , for your job you may want to do more research.

    Would it take pictures of footprints outside at night after you've been there like tracking somebody

    • @forgottenrights351
      @forgottenrights351 Год назад

      I rented one from my school, and you can't see footprints with regular shoes. You can briefly see footprints on wood floors if someone walks barefoot or with socks. For tracking, you'll want an object he or she was touching for a minute or so, otherwise it will fade completely in a few minutes. Interestingly, you can't see through windows. The glass acts as a mirror, so you just see yourself if you try to look through.

      NO, I use smoke to see air moving, inject it or in free air. There is a bubble liquid for HVAC trade that better than Dawn soap.
      If gas expands it you should see cooler spots right?

    • @user-on3jm5zb3p
      @user-on3jm5zb3p 3 месяца назад +2

      No, it does not give good enough resolution to see which component on a PCB is getting hot. It just kind of gets you down. really close to that component.
      I recommend the P2Pro same price range and comes with macro lense. Check out reviews on both and compare resolution. Drastic detail difference. The P2 sensor is susceptible to damage by intense heat sources so I have this Harbor Freight unit that I use on the regular for all kinds of things.
      The Harbor Freight camera works great on home wiring and older Electronics like tube amps and such but modern microelectronics it does nothing for. I still appreciate my Harbor Freight unit and use it often.

    Would it help find mice behind a wall?
    Also, does it work as a night vision device?

    • @evox786
      @evox786 Год назад +1

      No, it won't find mice behind a wall unless maybe if their nest is right up against the wall and there's several mice in it. But most likely not. They will help you see at night, but are distinctly different from night vision. For one, thermals cannot see through windows. There are plenty of videos comparing the two.

    • @livefreeandtoolon
      @livefreeandtoolon  2 года назад +1

      It’s heat sensitive, so it will show the difference in temps, however if it is behind a wall it will need to radiate heat or touch the wall, so it’s hit or miss

    • @Hello-zf4jn

      @dominicm2175 10 месяцев назад

      If there is a temperature differential on each side of the wall then I can always easily see the studs in a wall. You will be blown away how much heat/cooling is lost due to thermal bridging

      no. Not unless your walls are really thin. I can't see through glass well so you can see somebody through a window that it can't see.

      @@nielsdaemen I want to use it to check for hot spots on circuit boards and home insulation and thermal leakage, so I'm thinking the first part of the video can be a control like a warming up car engine or AC radiator fins of your home or coffee pot and then the remaining part of the video is you pointing at the heater or hot vents in your home and then a closed door to the room that has the heater or something that shows how the heat escapes from the room?
