Thermal cameras that attach to a cellphone would be a good follow up, please. Keep up the great work!

Here are the thermal imaging cameras and please check out the video description for more details. I bought all of the air thermal cameras; no sponsors, no free tools, and no company saw this video before you did. So, thank you for supporting the channel!

So glad there is decent affordable competition these days. FLIR has had the corner of the market for years.

This was a great test, and as I own 3 thermal cameras, I can really appreciate the wallet hit that this test would bring. I have the Thermal Master, the model that comes with the macro lens, and think you may have gotten a unit with an issue as mine hasn’t had any temp taking issues; or maybe I lucked out and got a good one. I also have a Fluke, different model from the one you tested, and the 12V Milwaukee, and can say overall I prefer the Thermal Master. The Fluke is by far the most expensive and for the price difference doesn’t provide an equivalently better end product; the only reason I have it is it can be calibrated annually. I think you channel us by far the best review channel on YouTube as you buy your products and with the scientific farmboy methodology it really brings back a Mythbusters feel.

I’m a facilities tech in a cold storage warehouse where we’re always watching for problems with temperature control. Around the dock areas, it’s not uncommon to have small leaks or insulation that comes loose over time. The tricky part is, most of these issues don’t show up to the eye. You only start to notice when the cooling system has to work harder or the compressor cycles more often than usual. A few months ago, we started using the Thor002 for weekly checks. The image clarity is excellent, especially when you're scanning large wall sections or high spots you can’t easily reach by hand. It helps us quickly spot abnormal thermal lines or patches that suggest insulation failure or air intrusion. One case stood out. I scanned a section near the refrigeration unit and noticed a faint warm line running vertically along the wall. At first glance it didn’t look like much, but the shape was too clean to be random. We opened the panel behind that area and found the spray foam had pulled away from the wall, leaving a narrow gap. That kind of issue wouldn’t have been found by feel or visual inspection alone. Another thing I’ve come to rely on is the voice note function. I don’t always have time to stop and write, especially when covering multiple zones. Now I just speak a quick note after each room and review everything later. It’s simple, but it saves time. Thor002 has been reliable so far. It turns on fast, doesn’t freeze up, and gives us the information we need without any fuss. That’s what I want in a tool

I got the HF96 a few months ago, and I agree it's a good thermal camera for the money.
