Couple shots from the garage a few minutes ago. These cameras are pretty cool. I think I'll take it outside and snap pics of the house and see where my heat losses are.

Awesome! Do you actually own this camera? They are pricey, and that one doesn't look to be a super low res one either...

Cool to see the reflection off the floor of the engine heat. Amazing what IR reflects off of well and what it doesn't.

We just picked up the line and are selling them, mainly to maintenance guys at large plants for looking at loose electrical connections, bad steam valves, heat loss, etc.. Great for troubleshooting. They used to sell for 40-60K but now the have models starting under 6K. They are made by the same company that puts cameras on gunships for the military, and builds night vision stuff for law enforcement. I just took it home to get familiar with it before I take it out to demo for customers. I shot pictures of the Harley and the 911 just for fun to see the heat signatures. I'd like to take the 911 for a hard run, then put it on a lift and shoot from underneath and check the temps on the hot spots.

That's awesome! I wouldn't mind to have one of those things myself but they're a bit rich for my blood.

Maybe in a few more years Radio Shack will be sellin' 'em...

If you're OUTSIDE taking a picture of your own house,
may your master suite be BLUE!

That's easy... it's the roof, side walls, windows, doors and foundation. The rest should be fine. wink.gif

Do they allow those at nudist camps........ ?????????

IF SO.....

I have another KILLER idea...... And it's a good one....

Aaron... ya got to hear this... it's a winner idea. We can conquer the world with this idea. We will start it in Finland though.
( lotsa running room, like forests and stuff)

This would be even BETTER than our last collaboration.
Remember the web site that we founded "Pregnant Lesbian Nuns With Midget Ferrets"???
Even though it didn't go that all that well and the feds were on us in 3 days.
And the investor pool from the church you mom led us to were a little pissy......
(yet, still a valiant effort)

DUDE, this is a MUCH better model........ OMG....!!!!!!!!!!!

OH man... If only this takes off........... HHHHmmmmmmmmmm

Da thinking cap is on overload. This is SSSoooo good.....

Laterzzz. I must think.
