  • Great thermal camera!
Color: Grey
The media could not be loaded. I have tried this camera against a very expensive handheld FLIR and a temperature probe sensor and this seems to be very close in comparison. The emissivity feature works but it doesn't seem to be super accurate when viewing things like shiny metal. I used the tempersture probe to get a baseline on a shiny metal object, adjusted the emissivity on the camera multiple times and could not accurately get a reading. Another thing I've noticed is when viewing an object that emits infrared (a TV remote control), this camera does not pick up any signs of infrared. I'm not sure if it's the type of lens over the camera or what, but trying every different color scheme and tried different settings, nothing seemed to work. Even with what I mentioned above, this thermal camera works very well. The update speed when viewing an object is so fast, the handheld FLIR doesn't compete. As soon as I move the camera to view an object, it shows the updated temperature almost immediately.. and on 3 separate parts of the screen! It shows where you are aiming and automatically locates the coldest and hottest objects in the view. The different color schemes are nice, I like how intuitive the app is to use, it gives you information on the emissivity section with common emissivity settings, it has a picture in picture mode so you can view in thermal and in normal lighting, the carry pouch, and USB line is also a nice addition; I have an otterbox case on my phone and because of the cable I don't have to remove the case to use the thermal camera. I've used this camera on my house that I'm remodeling to check for hot spots in the walls and ceiling; I've also checked another closed in house to check for leaks in the walls. I am very pleased with this purchase and will be recommending this thermal camera to others in the future. ... show more

  • This thing changed my life
Color: Grey
I use it multiple times a day (HVAC tech), I love it and have become proficient at using it to diagnose and prevent breakdowns. Has made me a much better tech, made me alot more money, and made my job fun. It has great resolution. Better than any other camera in this price range. And the app works flawlessly. Lots of color pallets for highlighting hot or cold spots. There's in depth features I don't even use like editing and exporting the heatmaps. Never need to keep it charged since it just plugs into your phone, I wish the usb was a bit longer so I could connect it to my phone with the case on, I just got a little extension plug for that. Man I love this thing and so do my customers. It's fun to mess around with outside of work too ... show more

  • Works great on my Samsung Galaxy S22 Plus.
Color: Blue
The app for Android was very easy to find in the Google app store, just search for TC0001 to find it. The first time I plugged the IR camera into my phone, it asked if I wanted to auto launch the app Everytime I connect the camera, I selected yes so I don't even need to pin the app to my homepage, just plug the camera in and it opens the app. The app is also pretty easy to use and figure out the options on it. It can display in both ⁰C or ⁰F by changing settings in the app. The camera does work very well. I was even able to see the warm spot in the wall behind the hot water pipe for my water heater. And see how hot a battery charger was getting. The response rate on the camera is also impressive as well as the resolution of the pictures. So far I have only used it from about 18 inches away to over 20 feet away and it works great. I have not yet tested it for very close up pics, like on a circuit board. I also like that it comes with a USB cable that is USB C male on one end and USB C female on the other, with an adapter to USB A male so you can use a single cable to connect the camera to a phone or a PC. You could plug the camera directly into you phone, assuming you either don't have a case on your phone, or a very thin case. The only down side to the cable it comes with is it is a bit too long if you just need to use it to connect to your phone so you don't have to remove any case you might have, which makes it a little hard to hold both your phone and the camera in one hand. Although I did also buy a short 5 inch just USB C male to female cable that also works with the camera and makes it easy to use one handed. Overall I am impressed with it and it was worth the money. ... show more

  • Great thermal camera!
Color: Blue
Just in time for WWIII...and perfect for those neighborhood special ops missions! This is a review for the TOPDON TC001 Thermal Camera for Android, 256x192 IR High Resolution. VERY easy and intuitive to set up for my Motorola Android phone. Picture quality is GREAT, with lots of different color mode options (including black and white modes) to differentiate temperatures against the various features and backgrounds you're looking at/for. See attached photos of infrared chickens, random guy down the street, and a park walking trail...all taken in near total darkness. If you were alive in the 80s, you'll definitely get some "Predator" vibes! Great price for everything you get...highly recommend! ... show more
