Today let’s talk about inexpensive thermal cameras, specifically the Fluke TiS. As you heard from me previously, and know from being in the field, Fluke is a manufacturer at the top of their game. The Tis is Fluke’s entry level offering in the thermal market and it is, as usual, a solid piece of equipment.
This is a post in praise of Fluke. I honestly carry no bias in this and many companies make great products that are comparable in lots of ways. This post is just to let you know exactly what you are getting when you purchase Fluke, specifically their line of thermal imagers.
Even the most versatile tools won’t do everything. I’m sorry to tell you but the thermal camera that also takes electrical readings, tests fiber optic cables, analyzes combustible gases, and cooks you scrambled eggs hasn’t been invented yet. Joking aside, the lesson is that you need choose a tool that, while flexible, is tailored to tackle your specific job. So how do you choose a Fluke camera?
The Flir E60 has been discontinued.
Who really likes wires? They are messy, ugly, and fragile. Now, we need them for certain applications for sure. I’m not suggesting we ditch wires completely but if you ask this guy,

In the world of test meters you want to get the most bang for your buck; lots of features and high performance that still fits your budget. Dave Jones of the popular EEVBlog recently put a group of multimeters in a similar price range (Extech EX330, Amprobe AM-220, Elenco M-2625, Global Specialties Pro-50, and Vichy VC99) to the test and one meter came out clearly as the top dog. Drum roll please… Extech EX330!
Hey everyone, today’s post is going to take a look at the improvements the Testo 875i-2 makes over the Testo 875-1. The Testo 875i-2 is simply an upgraded model in the same family, so outwardly these cameras are going to look the same but once you get under the hood you’ll find the superior features that make the 875i-2 top of the line.
It’s a bird! It’s a plane! No, it’s SuperResolution! Okay everybody get ready for some science. Testo SuperResolution is a fascinating and extremely useful technology that is patent-pending and available on Testo Thermal Imagers.
