Hey All,
I have been casually looking for an IR camera for basic homeowner use, anything and everything you can imagine. since last winter or so. Summer diverted my attention but since it's winter again soon, my thoughts moved back to this.
I had left off hoping to get a used Flir Ex and hack, but that is a bit out of my budget. I read the pros and cons of the rest and more or less thought I had settled on the Seek Compact Pro as best overall value (among Flir One, Milwaukee handheld, anything Chinese). TE and TA seemed a bit out of reach (and having lived in Asia before I wasn't looking forward to local dealer markups).
That said, there are a lot of cons to the Compact Pro... durability, software, quality variances, engineered dead pixels, post sales support/warranty drama, etc. On the other hand, for home use, does anyone see a better bang for the buck? It seems the IR camera marketplace isn't quite as dynamic as those for other electronic products... was hoping to have more from which to choose, but worst case hopefully they have improved what they had!
Thanks!
