Why we like it
- True thermal imaging at the lowest price we've seen
- Works in total darkness — needs zero ambient light
- Handheld and simple: point at the sky, look
Keep in mind
- 256x192 sensor is coarse — identification, not detail
- Battery life is modest; carry a spare
- Won't see through clouds or glass
