Hopefully FLIR have not glued or welded the case together. Hidden internal clips or screws would be my bet. A quick pass through my Faxitron X-Ray will reveal its secrets. I suspect one will be opened well before my unit arrives in July/August though.

Thanks Toploser. I should have known you would investigate whether it pops apart.

Thank you FLIR for making battery replacement a painless exercise

This is good news after a bad day.

1. Having to sort out the garage .... a nightmare ...how did I accumulate so much

2. Getting burnt on an Inframetrics PM280E purchase. Stirling Cooler has no Helium fill left

Hope you are enjoying your camping. Are you at Glastonbury by any chance ?

The new FLIR ONE has FCC approval....... probably because it attaches to a transmitting device.

http://www.flir.com/flirone/Press/FLIR-ONE-Android-iOS-Fast-Facts.pdf

So what you may say ? Well FCC approval often means that an FCC test report exists and they often contain images of internal PCB's etc Case fixings may also be visible ?

I have no time to search the FCC database at the moment but will take a look later.

AIUI the online file stuff only applies to intentional radiators. there are other classes of FCC listing for general EMC.

A pity.

It would have been good to see inside the little beastie

It looks to be nicely designed and engineered.

But will it blend?!

Nice images TopLoser. The battery seems pretty standard too. So should be a pretty cheap/easy replacement down the road.

marshallh · « **Reply #138 on:** June 28, 2015, 12:58:21 am »

Great one on the pics, TopLoser

dadler · « **Reply #139 on:** June 28, 2015, 01:10:16 am »

Hmm, I ordered an iOS V2 and it says ships 2-3 weeks. If it turns out that the sensor is actually just a tweaked old Lepton, I guess this gives me time to cancel the order.

All back together without too much trouble. The battery connector is a right pain to reinsert, I lost my temper with it and took it off the board, soldered the battery wires directly onto the board.

SeanB · « **Reply #142 on:** June 28, 2015, 11:02:56 am »

Anybody want to take a guess as to whether that 4 pin socket between the Lightning connector and the board is just plain USB2.0 connection.

Fraser · « **Reply #143 on:** June 28, 2015, 11:07:16 am »

The engineering around the lightning connector looks excellent. Better than I would have expected on a budget device. To FLIR's mechanical design team......well done

Odds on that the Android version is exactly the same main board with just a different interface board with a different USB connector on it.

I bet the Android hardware is all done and in boxes ready to ship, it's just the software that's holding back the release.

Fraser · « **Reply #145 on:** June 28, 2015, 11:17:09 am »

@Seanb,

That would make good sense as the I/O connector assembly would be the only difference at manufacture without needing to change the rest of the design. Hence the use of a micro USB for charging on both the iOS and Android versions. They had to pick one and Micro USB is becoming the standard these days.

I do not know about lightning interfaces but I assumed it was just a standard USB2.0 lineup with some additional pins for the Apple ID chip ?

mikeselectricstuff · « **Reply #146 on:** June 28, 2015, 12:29:47 pm »

Lepton looks the same, except there is a chip in the corner which is unpopulated on the ones I've seen. Could just be a driver for the shutter though.

I received a reply to my question to FLIR CS on the topic of the 2nd Gen ONE resolution.

See it here:

https://www.eevblog.com/forum/testgear/actual-resolution-of-flir-one-v2/msg701871/?topicseen#msg701871

It was not the answer I was expecting !

Do FLIR employ politicians in Customer Services I wonder ?

Aurora

Fraser · « **Reply #149 on:** June 29, 2015, 03:42:49 pm »

Just a received a response from FLIR in in the USA

That was super fast, I only just sent the question ! I wonder if they are reading this thread ?

"Hi Fraser,

From the information that I have received the second generation of the FLIR ONE uses an array of 160x120 PHYSICAL Pixels and that these are active in the images produced"

So there you have it. The best I can do on the support front. A confirmation that the microbolometer is 160x120 active physical pixels.
