I am improving insulation in my attic and felt like I was not sure which areas needed more or less additional material. I thought that an IR imager might provide me some insight beyond my simple temperature gun.
It felt like it was built solid and plugged into my Samsung S20 however like other reviews, I needed to remove my case first.
I found the app, installed it easily and when I replugged the device in, the app came right up and I saw the image.
I tested it in my kitchen which had a hot pan in use and saw the heat imagery with temperature markers on the hot spot. Wow, impressive.
I then tried still images then video and it recorded perfectly. You can record audio with the video like I did to narrate the action.
I then went around the house throughout the day imaging the ceiling and playing with the software which has color temperature schemes, ranges, highlighted areas and more.
I found that I needed to adjust the high and low range sliders as I inspected the ceiling depending upon how warm or cool areas there were but was easy.
I was surprised to find many hot spots where I obviously missed insulation. I also inspected the circuit breaker panel too and saw warm circuits versus cool ones from energy load.
It met my needs for what I am doing and is excellent in my opinion for home use.
The resolution is fine and having it paired with my phone makes it easy to edit or share the images.
My buddies saw my videos and were amazed and also wanted one too.
