🚀 Abunda's Overview

This is our summary and key points to consider based on customer reviews.


The product being reviewed seems to be a thermal imaging camera, with most reviews comparing the E5 and E8 models. The generally positive reviews highlight the camera's ease of use, clear imaging, and application in various fields including home inspection, water leak detection, and electronics troubleshooting. However, some users reported dissatisfaction with the image quality and incomplete package upon delivery.

Pros

  • 📌 Highly versatile in use with application in home inspections, troubleshooting circuits, and detecting water leaks.
  • 📎 Boot up time is relatively short, especially for the E5 model.
  • 📍 Image retrieval is easy, with options for USB and wifi connections.
  • 📝 Blink-and-you'll-miss-it ease of use, with point & click photo-taking.

Cons

  • 📌 Some users were not satisfied with the image quality, reporting that it was noisier than advertised.
  • 📎 Some product packages arrived incomplete, missing key inclusions such as the battery charger.
  • 📍 A few users found the HTI-19 model to feel more "toy-like" and less professional.
  • 📝 Navigating through the menus on the HTI-19 model can be tricky and unintuitive.

Should I Buy It?

Yes. Despite some minor issues with image quality and packaging, it seems the overwhelming majority of users are pleased with the functionality and ease-of-use of these thermal imaging cameras. They are especially recommended if you work in a field that would benefit from thermal imaging, such as home inspection or electronics troubleshooting.

  • Detailed review of this product vers HTI-19
Pattern Name: Camera Style: E5-XT WiFi
At the time of this review the price for these were $491 for the HTI-19 and about $1575 for the E5. Craftsmanship & Comfort: Right off the bat you can tell the difference in assembly quality. E5: Better pistol grip, hard carrying case. HTI: Feels more "toy like" has protective pouch with carrying strap. Ease of use: Both photo taking is "point & click," however the HTI-19 asks you every time if you want to save. E5 just saves. User Interface & buttons: HTI-19 menus are a little tricky but you can get used to it. The SELECT and ENTER are obscurely translated. What does select mean to you? "select between these things" or "select the option your cursor is on"? To view your photos you have to navigate through menus with no image preview. E5 Buttons are much simpler. Easy to go right to your photos by hitting the "play" button. Also has image previews. Boot up time before use: Hti-19: About 13 seconds E5: About 4 seconds Thermal Camera quality: Both claim to have a "thermal resolution" of 320x240. E5 IR images are more defined than the HTI-19. E5 saves a normal photo (648x480) at the same time as IR. HTI has 5 photo modes where progressively stronger thermal data is overlayed onto the raw photo. One click on E5 gets you 2 photos where the HTI requires 4 clicks. (since it asks you if you want to save each time) Distance detail: HTI really tries but clarity goes to the E5. Distance in photos are about 25 feet. Photo retrieval: Both can be connected to your computer via USB. E5 offers wifi/wifi direct although I haven't been able to figure that out. (haven't read the manual either) Conclusion: HTI-19 is a good budget thermal camera for fun + more. But if you want the professional look and feel then the E5 with more features is a better choice. ... show more

  • Home Inspector
Pattern Name: Camera Style: E6-XT WiFi
This product has been amazing so far. During home inspector training, my mentor had an E8 that he taught me on. After hours and hours of product research, I couldn’t justify the thousand dollar price difference between the E6 and the E8 when starting up my own business. This camera does everything that the E8 does and I can barely tell the difference between the image/thermal quality. Definitely recommend this for the home inspection profession, well worth the money when you can make it right back. A thermal camera, which you should use at every inspection, is not a tool that I would cheap out on in this line of work! Thanks FLIR! The picture is just an example, one of the shots I already had uploaded to my phone. Cool heated towel rack at a home inspection last week! ... show more

  • I am not certain about realy quality of images
Pattern Name: Camera Style: E8-XT WiFi
I give five stars because I am a nice guy. I actually ended up returning this back. I found a number of sample images on flir's website, and online. Images were kindda noisy in comparing to the ones on their site and elsewhere. I am almost thinking there is some false advertisement here. I am not an expert on infrared cameras but I was not able to get such clear images even after playing intensively with camera settings. Maybe, the camera I got was not calibrated properly, but it should have been since it is a brand new product. I believe you can find identify in many applications with this camera. Also, one battery was totally dead which they would probably replace if I complained. I just was not sure about advertised quality. Make sure you compare images you see on your camera with the official ones they claim you will get. If you think there is false advertising report it. ... show more

  • Simply an amazing tool to have!!!
Pattern Name: Camera Style: E6-XT WiFi
Living next to the Canadian border in the center of the country, I got this to do audits on homes to find where Mr. Winter in creeping into houses. Wow!!! It's amazing to be able to see very clearly where homes are not insulated well and where the leaks are. You can even see the studs in the walls. Heated floors you can see if any of the pipes are leaking. On electric heated floors you can see if any of the pads are not heating. Definitely and amazing tool to have. I'm still getting used to the software for making reports to present to customers, but it is nice to have that option with Flir offering the free reporting software. ... show more

  • Without a subscribed service the photos are impossible to transfer to a smart phone.
Pattern Name: Camera Style: E6-XT WiFi
The camera is easy enough to use but when attempting to transfer photos to a android smart phone via the WiFi it becomes impossible. First of all it requires a mobil hotspot to transfer from the WiFi camera to my WiFi phone. Why must I have a mobile connection to make such a transfer? If you are in a basement or otherwise out of range of your mobile network it will not work. It is required to "send" the photos to yourself? When attempting to do this the most photo apps are disabled for some reason and as shown in the attached photo, the Amazon app cannot find the photo. Even though the photos are viewable in the FLIR app they are not visible in the File app of the smart phone. If you want to otherwise use or edit the photos outside of the FLIR app it is impossible to do. I suppose this is to keep the photos in the FLIR app so that the FLIR logo cannot be removed? Repeated email responses from tech support could not solve these problems. Very disappointed with the proprietary nature of the scan results. ... show more
