Flir One - Thermal Imaging Camera for Android Smartphones (USB-C), 240x180 Super Resolution (80x60 Native IR)

Good product using with Samsung phone Downloaded app Used to check issue with radiator

Bought this about 9 years ago for my plumber father, still working perfect for checking underfloor heating, cold spots in insulation and such, I also like borrowing it for fun. Resolution is low on the thermal sensor but the software compensates by using the phones camera through the app to add some detail

Either the camera is faulty or I'm well and truly heating the neighborhood and the company that did my cavity insulation 10 years ago did nowt and conned me. ( council contractor). If the pictures are true, I'm at a total loss of where to start. Need some pro help I think. Camera was easy to set up and use. Did not have to take case off. When I took pictures indoors could clearly see cold spots. Definitely starting with roof and working my way down. Not used the tools yet and want to see pics on PC but good camera.

After reviewing the many "gun" type infra red cameras with their high prices and tiny screens, I decided to buy the standard (not Pro) Flir for Android unit. I had read of incompatibilities with my oneplus 6 phone but decided to risk it. The unit arrived incredibly promptly (I live in Jersey where Amazon prime has historically not been great). I followed instructions and initially my phone did not detect the unit. A quick glance at Flir's help site suggested ensuring OTG is enabled (in phone's system settings) and it worked perfectly immediately. I then explored my house with the heating on in order to map the underfloor pipes. After allowing the heating to run for an hour, all the pipes could be seen highlighted on my phone's large screen. The subtle blending of visual and infra red images really helped and using it after switching off all the lights (at night) gave another helpful perspective. This is not a device for producing pin sharp hi res photos in the infra red spectrum, but the images (and videos!) give enough detail to identify pipes and other objects quite clearly. Video is very helpful in orientating oneself in the house as it can be hard to tell exactly where individual images were taken, without taking notes, after the event. The instructions should make it clearer that the unit charges it's internal battery from a separate (not supplied) charger, NOT from the phone. Very pleased with the unit which is well made and can have so many uses looking for hot spots. Even photographing cats in the dark is fun!

I snapped this thermal imaging camera up on an amazon black friday deal, as it is something I've been interested in for years but this is the first time I've seen it at a price point that felt accessible as an impulse purchase for my own perpetual curiosity. The device itself has both a male and female USB C, one for charging the device, and one for communicating with the phone when it's attached. It has a power button on the bottom, and a rotary dial that is supposed to secure the C plug. First turning it on and getting the app to connect seems hit-or-miss and is mildly frustrating - but one synced it works fantastically. Because my phone visible-light camera is at the opposite end to the FLIR IR camera, there's a definite point-of-focus in the depth with the stereoscopic vision, and when I need to focus closer or further away, the thermal overlay doesn't match the visual overlay close enough - but luckily there's a really easy to use slider on the app that makes it super quick to get everything aligned again.

I am pleased with this product and felt that it was at a good price point during a Black Friday deal (~£130). I have found it incredibly helpful in identifying components and pipes of a complex heating system in my new (very old) house without disturbing floors or walls. My only frustration with the FLIR One is that it is part of a series of products which all use the FLIR One App. This app is part of the user guide to use the product, however, it seems as though some software-based features are disabled based on the camera model (e.g. FLIR One vs FLIR One Pro). Especially frustrating for me, the Custom Level/Span or manual Temperature range adjustment is disabled for this model, even though the hardware is fully compatible and capable of enabling the feature. I feel that the Pro model should stand on its own merits as a piece of hardware, with its much higher price point, rather than relying on enabled/disabled feature flags in the companion app. Despite this, I am having a lot of fun with my new gadget and I like how small and portable it is. As a first thermal imaging camera for hobby/DIY purposes, this is a good product that I don't regret buying. In future, I will probably consider an alternative brand to FLIR, as I dont agree with the commercial practice of software-locked hardware.

Zum kauf bewegt haben mich einmal die Marke FLIR und der günstigere Preis als eine Stand Alone Wärmebildkamera. App muss auf einem Android Smartphone installiert sein (in meinem fall ein Mate20), nach dem anschliessen die FLIR cam einschalten (Unterseite) Nach ca. 3-4 Sekunden ist sie Betriebsbereit. Die Leistung ist super. Bei 24 Grad Lufttemperatur kann man Frösche im hohen Gras (mit dem Auge nicht sichtbar) anhand der wärmeunterschiede exakt als Frosch identifizieren. Auch Vogelnester in dichten Baumkronen können lokalisiert werden wenn die Distanz nicht zu groß ist. Ein Nachteil, 1Stunde Nutzungsdauer und muss separat geladen werden. Der Akku ist fest verbaut und ist die einzige Stromversorgung. Sehr positiv, der USB-C Stecker an der FLIR One kann in der Länge raus oder rein an einer Drehwalze verstellt werdn, sehr sinnvoll wenn man eine dick Handyhülle zb. UAG hat. Im Lieferumfang ist ein passendes Hardcase und ein USB Kabel. Bin zufrieden. Noch als Nachtrag die FLIR One funktioniert auf mit Fremd Apps, wobei ich den Eindruck habe das die Akku Laufzeit der FLIR one geringer ist. Ich bin zufrieden

Helt värd priset. Funkar bra för mig.

My FLIR was delivered the other day and after letting it charge and downloading the app, I tried it out. It worked beautifully in finding the areas where I've been having heat loss around the house. The big result was finding a carpenter ants nest in one of our log home logs. That I have since taken care of. Would I recommend this product... Yes. It may not have all the bells and whistles of it's more advanced siblings, but if you are looking for a simple way to find heat or cold sources this works fine.

Top product wat erg goed werkt.

Good product. Value for money. Used on Vivo V20. Working well.
