Just for documentation the changing image quality when cooling a CompactPro.
Not to be confused, the CompactPro was pointed to a "normal" Seek Compact plugged into a Motorola G5s. The CompactPro is connected to a Sony Z3 with the Seek-App version 2.1.6.
At first the CompactPro was running a few minutes, then the recording was started and the screenshot on the left is showing the image quality. There is no significant change in noise before or after the NUC (or FFC
). Then a small piece of water ice wrapped in a paper towel was put on the case of the CompactPro behind the FPA. The case is slowly cooling down a few degrees and the image quality is changing significantly. Much less noise but only shortly after the NUC (middle screenshot). A few seconds later the noise is even worse than witout cooling until the next NUC.
You can watch the recording in realtime here:

I'll put the CompactPro into a climate chamber and check if the noise still changes when having a constant temperature.
My normal Seek Compact does not seem to improve with cooling, at least there is no visible effect.
