TOPDONThermal Imaging Camera TC004 Mini, 240x240 IR Resolution, 15H Battery Life, -20°C to 450°C, 25Hz, Thermal Camera Handheld for Home Maintenance, Leak Inspection, HVAC Inspection

Works well at identifying hot/cold areas. Responds to changes in temp quite quickly - there's a noticeable delay but it's maybe about a quarter second so not a problem for me.I was worried that the heat sensing display wouldn't be very have the resolution but while it wasn't high res it was good enough to make out electrical cables from around 60cm and radiator pipes from 1m. It didn't seem blotchy in any of the modes and was good enough for me.I was hoping it might help me find the source of some drafts in the room, it did show up some cold spots around the floor but I'm not totally convinced they're the source. I didn't expect it to be able to show up drafts so I'm not knocking points off for that but just be aware. Battery life seems good, I've not needed to use it for long periods though. I used it continuously for maybe 2 hours on and off and the battery still showed full.It's handy having a digital readout of the current centre spot temperature but as this model doesn't have a pointer it's not too easy to be sure what it's pointing at. The temperature is shown in white in the top corner and can often get difficult to read when the background is a light colour. You can switch colour modes with a button which sometimes helps.I'm not sure how accurate it is but I think it's at least good enough for relative comparisons.Overall for my purposes it's quite expensive but for the right purpose I think it does the job well.

I bought this to help check the insulation in my loft, follow the central heating pipework routes, view electrical installations ,such as solar, inverter, battery and maybe some automotive jobs. Its been great so far, the resolution isnt the best but the more you pay the more you get, this is a budget model. Functionality is basic but do you need to take video at home? If you pull the trigger it will takes a pic which you download using the cable supplied. Thats all you need if you want to compare any change. The first of my pics is me looking into a mirror holding my arm out. The second is the heating pipes coming down the corner of my lounge, you can see the dabs of plaster holding the plaster boards on the wall (its 30 years old!). The third is my ceiling near the front window looking hot during the day when its just a reflection. Anything very shiny such as chrome 'looks' hot. I dont know what the battery life is like I have never had to charge it since the first charge out of the packaging! So definitely recommended for home use on a budget.

The media could not be loaded. This Thermal Imaging Camera is impressive and surprisingly useful! Though it’s not something you’d use daily, it’s a great tool if you can afford it. So far, I’ve used it to inspect my underfloor radiator pipes for leaks, identify cold spots in the house for insulation improvements, and check the loft insulation quality.Capturing images is simple with a trigger on the handle, and you can easily upload them via the included USB-C cable. The camera has two resolutions—128x128 and 240x240 with TISR technology for enhanced detail. The screen quality is good, though a slightly larger display would be even better.It includes a basic instruction set, but by scanning the QR code, you can access more detailed manuals and videos. These guides are easy to understand, although the camera is pretty intuitive to operate. My only wish would be for a protective case or carry bag to keep it safe.Overall, it’s a valuable addition to any toolbox and I'm thrilled to have it!

TLDR: Great little thermal camera with well rounded feature set and inbuilt storage.I got this camera to deal with the ongoing problems with the RTX 4090/RTX 5090 graphics card cable burning/melting issues and it does the job great for my RTX 3090 atm for making sure those electrical fires are not humming away in the background. I also found it very useful for finding the cold spots in the house and figuring out why mould was growing in certain spots in my flat and well you can see for yourself certain corners get very cold which is perfect for moisture and mould growth!Pros:- Decent native resolution for the price 128 x 128 pixels, up sampled to 240 x 240 to help you see with a bit more clarity.- Auto-adjustment of temperature range (almost instantaneous) and finding min/max points (1 second) is fast and consistent.- Onboard storage is great with 480 mb enough for roughly 5000ish photos on the device that you can access by plugging in the USB cable to your computer.- Easy to use simply turn on and go. All settings are easily available via the OK button.- Good frame rate not jittery or laggy with the 25 hz setup.- Very fast wake times from idle (instant) and decently speed start up time from cold start (7 seconds-ish).Cons:- A native 240x240 or similar rez would be lovely but they cost around double the price of this unit typically so understandable it isn’t. If looking at other brands be wary as some are 96x96 or smaller up sampled to 240x240. You want as much native pixels as possible!

Be warned this is their reduced spec TC004 MINI version!The various YouTube web reviews seem to be for a better TC004 version .. which I'm not sure is still on sale.This version has no SD card slot .. and will not connect to the PC app they have on their website.You can however copy images from the IR camera to your PC.Still good value for money - but I'm still not pleased that they down specced the product.
