FlirONE

The FlirONE is finally available. I looked at this maybe 8 months ago when the spec’s were first released, but havn’t paid much mind since. I was wondering what your opinions are on this? It has a dirt cheap price point since your phone is doing half of the work. The resolution of it is comparable to the Flir E4 that I know a lot you guys use.

I heard it’s better than all those $5k cameras…

The FLIR One is great!!!
I traded my FLIR T400 for the FLIR One.

Well, it is dirt cheap. Only works with Apple IPhone. You gotta wonder how good it really is.

:):):):slight_smile:
You hit your t400 on the wall after getting frustrated again and need a replacement?

I heard a cow jumped over the moon but have not seen any scientific evidence or data provided by the farmer selling the cow that verifies his statement. :roll:

I do know you can see colours and cows on Ipads and Iphones though.:smiley:

I think it’s time to take your meds Robert.

Do you know if nachi has a deal for these? I was hoping not to have to shell out the big bucks to make a move and get into this tech. :mrgreen:

A deal? It’s only $349. It’s less than a thermography class.

Sorry Frank, a poor job at tongue in cheek on my part :smiley: I already perform IR/Thermal services

You don’t use the FlirONE, do you? :slight_smile:

Resolution for the FLIR ONE is 80 x 60

The drawback for inspectors is the client’s reaction when you pull out a cell phone and tell them this phone adaptor is your thermal imaging equipment. With no training and poor resolution the chances of missing a defect are great. I can see how some inspectors will try to hide all of this.

I couldn’t find the resolution anywhere on their website. Now I know why.

The MSX that is in all of their IR equipment seems to mask poor resolution… and may give a false sense of “seeing something” or not, as John M. wisely points out.

An example below… and this is from a 320x240 Imager, just a low delta T (measured an air return) with/without MSX. Also, the thermogram after a quick tune.

Are you deducing this on the couch again? Or in the park?

The drawback is you are lighter $400 plus the the cost of a Ipad.:smiley:

Ben did a few videos with one today. You can watch them here: http://www.nachi.org/forum/f58/videos-my-flir-one-iphone-infrared-camera-93822/

IPhone, it only works with IPhone. Not IPad.

Not being an Apple consumer for business and other reasons makes me deficient.
Sorry.
I can see it being able to link up with there Ipads if the gimmick catches on.

I want my client to have information.
This is nothing more than a marketing gimmick by Apple/Flir and I doubt the the founder would have moved in that direction.
