Anyone have any reccomendations for a decently priced IR camera that isn’t dependent on a phone app? Don’t want something that will just stop working because the manufacturer can’t be bothered to keep updating the app later on.

Coincidentally, it is cold here too. Walked around the house with a USB drone camera. Window edges are radiating like crazy. There was no difference between a window with shades down vs. a window with shades up (I hoped to find a difference, but was disappointed). However, edges need considerable extra foam.

yeah its hard to see but looks like its catching my body right behind the wall. Very accurate!

Damnit, now I have another toy to add to my “need” list.

Pro tip, works in hot weather too.

also a 10 dollar studbuddy will be your best friend any time you need to find a stud

Used my Topodon this morning to find where I was losing the most heat around the house after all the weatherization and prepping I’d done. Was pleasantly surprised how most areas were holding up, but it definitely helped narrow focus where I still had plenty of gaps, definitely worth it for the insights.

This is why ventilators can make sense to run in tall rooms even during the winter.
