Do You Have an Android Phone?

Thermal Camera heat loss survey – can you help?

I have a thermal camera on loan for a few days, with the aim of surveying our house for heat loss. It’s a “Flir One” and plugs into the USB C (charging) socket of an Android phone. It needs you to download the “Flir One” App to make it work…and unfortunately, despite checking the compatibility very carefully, my phone won’t download the App. Several friends have also tried to download it, and the App just says “your phone is not compatible”. I am assured by the manufacturer that it works with most phones, but clearly not those we have tried.

Would you be interested in trying out a thermal camera in your home, in return for allowing me to use your phone / tablet to do the same in our home? You would need an Android phone or tablet with a USB C (the new standard) charging socket, and be able to successfully download the “Flir One” App from the Play Store. You can read about the Flir One thermal camera and what it can do on the Flir web site here.

If you can download the App and are happy to help, please call me on 01643 829129.

Thank you.
