HIKMICRO B10 Thermal Imaging Camera 320 x 240 Super IR with 2MP Visual, 3.2" LCD Screen 256 x 192 IR Resolution Thermal Camera, 25 Hz Refresh Rate, -4°F~1022°F, IP54

Brilliant. Just remember to slide open the lens cap! Prompt delivery. Works out of the box. Instructions included.

Spent a lot of time thinking I'd 'buy the best' and go for a Flir infrared imaging camera but was put off by the slow update speed (9fps, something to do with USA export restrictions) and the painfully high prices. While trawling the internet for reviews (as you do), Hikmicro was mentioned as a worthy manufacturer so I looked at their range. I chose this model because of the fast update speed (25fps) and its IR resolution. I would have liked WiFi connectivity but I didn't want to pay the extra £200 for the B20. I was very impressed by the build quality and the professional feel of the unit. It works fine as expected and with the extensive warranty I feel that I have invested in a useful test instrument. The only thing I would have liked is a proper carrying case (ie not just a pouch, something that holds the power supply and lead as well) but the box it comes in is quite sturdy and will serve well for the time being.

This is a superb thermal camera and extremely good value. But I returned it because it was not suitable for my application - using it to show how a thermal camera works for an audience. I have a MacBook computer and I wanted to use the camera as a USB Universal Video Camera (i.e. work like a webcam) and "cast" the video from the computer screen onto an external monitor/projector. Unfortunately this functionality just doesn't work at all with this model and I had to upgrade to the HIK Micro Pocket 2. I have found that relying on custom software is just a recipe for disaster - the mix of updates to OS's and software means the functionality rarely lasts very long. Using the UVC standard means I can use this indefinitely with many different computers.

I use many devices every day, this camera meets my requirements, it is precise, fast and easy to use. Very good price-performance ratio. Good support from the manufacturer, the first one turned out to be factory defective, I received a new and functional one quickly and efficiently. I am very satisfied, I highly recommend a good purchase.

Don’t use it much but I love gadgets and wanted something like this for a long time. It’s fun watching the central heating warm up in the winter. It’s just fun watching temperature of anything change. I haven’t tested the accuracy as I don’t really need to.

Clear images, multiple ranges and settings to choose from and approximately 75% cheaper than a well known leading brand. Maybe instructions could be made easier to understand.

It was time to replace my iPhone Flur and after doing quite a lot of research, I decided to buy this one. The battery life is so much better than the flur, it is nice to hold and rugged with a built in lens protector.

Whilst i haven't used it for anything important yet, the ease of use and quality feel of the item is excellent. The sensitivity is incredible, allowing me to "see my footprints" after walking on carpet! I'm looking forward to use it on something important like PCB repair or insulation!
