Review: Valuable resource in energy management - Cool gadget that puts really important data in the hands of a DIY homeowner. I found all kinds of areas where heat was being lost. Works well, and was easy to use. The cord allowed me to put the camera anywhere and any angle while keeping my view stationary on the phone screen. It comes in a nice carrying case making it durable for use in construction.
Review: Works great on my Samsung Galaxy S22 Plus. - The app for Android was very easy to find in the Google app store, just search for TC0001 to find it. The first time I plugged the IR camera into my phone, it asked if I wanted to auto launch the app Everytime I connect the camera, I selected yes so I don't even need to pin the app to my homepage, just plug the camera in and it opens the app. The app is also pretty easy to use and figure out the options on it. It can display in both ⁰C or ⁰F by changing settings in the app. The camera does work very well. I was even able to see the warm spot in the wall behind the hot water pipe for my water heater. And see how hot a battery charger was getting. The response rate on the camera is also impressive as well as the resolution of the pictures. So far I have only used it from about 18 inches away to over 20 feet away and it works great. I have not yet tested it for very close up pics, like on a circuit board. I also like that it comes with a USB cable that is USB C male on one end and USB C female on the other, with an adapter to USB A male so you can use a single cable to connect the camera to a phone or a PC. You could plug the camera directly into you phone, assuming you either don't have a case on your phone, or a very thin case. The only down side to the cable it comes with is it is a bit too long if you just need to use it to connect to your phone so you don't have to remove any case you might have, which makes it a little hard to hold both your phone and the camera in one hand. Although I did also buy a short 5 inch just USB C male to female cable that also works with the camera and makes it easy to use one handed. Overall I am impressed with it and it was worth the money.

*by D***8 on November 28, 2025*

We bought this so my husband could try to find leaks in the house and try to diagnose where water damage may be coming from. Probably saved us thousands of dollars from having a professional come & do it. It's very easy to use. I love that you can use on your phone or on a computer. Pictures come out great & it's just a fun, inexpensive gadget to have
