  • Good thermal imager
The first unit I received worked well, but did not accept firmware updates. TOPDON worked with me to assess the problem. It was determined that the unit was faulty and should be replaced. TOPDON expeditiously replaced the failed unit. Shipping took a while because it travelled across the country and had to go by surface since there was a Li ion battery. TOPDON provided the shipper and carried the charges. They were good to work with. The TC004 is a good IR imager for the price. I have watched microbolometer array thermal imagers for years. This is the best thermal imager available for the price having a focal plane that is 256x192 pixels. Comparably priced devices generally have smaller arrays so less resolution in their field of view. The TC004 is a handheld unit with a pistol-grip type of handle. It is sturdy and well made. I like this better than a device that plugs into a smart phone. It is more stable and easier to point and shoot. It has a ½-20 thread in the handle bottom so it can be mounted on a tripod. Very convenient for stability. The battery life is excellent. I have not had it run down. I find when charged, it will run for quite a while. The manual is pretty lean. The first 15 pages are in English. The remaining 85 pages are in other languages, clearly an international product. The imager can take stills and video. Associated with the camera is a free downloaded software package, TDView that runs on PC Windows 7, 10 and 11. Thermal analysis can be done with TDView of acquired still images whether taken remotely or while tethered to the PC using TDView. Video taken with TDView while the TC004 is tethered is in .irv format and can be post processed for thermal analysis by extracting stills from the played back video. Video acquired remotely is in .h264 format and can only be viewed in TDView, but not post processed for temperature analysis. Overall, this is an excellent device for the price. I acquired mine on a Christmas sale. I give it 5 stars. This a helpful device for assessing heat leaks in my house. Scary! It has other interesting uses too. I recommend this as a useful addition to any measurement toolkit. ... show more

  • This thing is cool!
This thing is cool! It's a little pricey, but it's worth it for the hi-res, real time display quality. I mean this thing is neat; look for heat leaks in houses, find electronics still consuming power when off, find hidden electronics, see if someone was sitting in your seat in the last few minutes, find the hot electronic components on a PC board, find the heat irregularities in your truck exhaust manifold, check the bed on your 3D printer for even heating. The uses are endless. Shipping was fast, service was great. ... show more

  • Works great... effective education tool for showing how the JWST works
This product, the TOPDON TC004 thermal camera the only IR Thermal Camera (that I have found) that can display its images live on a computer or projected on a screen. The is great for educational purposes. It has all the standard features you need to use it as a work or home tool, and it is reasonably priced for that purpose. However...while I am happy with the product quality, features, and performance... all of that may come at at an additional yearly price. All of the analysis software that is needed for the TC004 camera to work with a computer has to be downloaded from the TOPDON website in the form of RAR files. To do that, you have to download the WINZIP software from Microsoft... by either buying it ($54 per year) or downloading it through the limited trial period. I got the RAR files... but I don't know if they will stay active after the trail period expires. If they don't stay active, then I will have to return the camera to TOPDON. I don't want to pay over $330 for an IR camera, and then have to keep paying $54 per year for the WINZIP software to use it. I think they must have a better way to do this... and I have challenged TOPDON too come up with that. The cost of the software purchase is not mentioned in the product description. ... show more

  • Great Thermal camera for the money
The media could not be loaded. I’ve been using this thermal imaging camera for the past two weeks now. The unit itself is very high-quality. The screen resolution and ability to show the vast temperature range difference is impressive, the price range is very affordable, and the amount of uses are limitless. So far I’ve used this for checking the efficiency of my outdoor Wood Boiler, indoor fuel oil Boiler, checking for drafts throughout my house, vehicle and small engine temperatures, and Finding heating pipes in my walls, just to name a few. The unit feels good in my grip And has multiple settings to get a more accurate thermal picture. My personal favorite is the rainbow palette The only con of this thermal imaging camera I have comes down to how the format of the SD card is. I tried plugging The SD card into my iPhone and Mac computers and it said that I could not read the files. After purchasing and testing, I assume this only works on Windows operating systems but I didn’t see any mention of this on the product page or in the manual. ... show more

  • Works great!!!!
Just wanted to let everyone see my review on this awesome topdon tc004 tool. Im an auto technician and found lots of uses already owning this tool. Ive included a few pictures showing relays that were activated while bus was off showing there still active and a source of battery current draw that was draining battery. Ive also used the topdon tc004 on coolant pipes and hoses. Seeing the temp changes from inlets and outlets. I find it very easy user interface as well. Its able to record and playback on the tool or on a pc. So thats great for showing customers. I have also used it around my house and gound spots that i knew were drafty and with the tooli can see where the source was coming from. In my case missing insulation. The battery life is very long. It does display min/max temperature on the screen which is great to know. This tool is priced low for such a high quality tool. I would recommend buying. Topdon customer service is great as well. 5 stars ***** ... show more
