    Golden Review Award: 2 From Our UsersI bought this unit a few years ago to use on a project and was quite satisfied with the results. After some time in storage the unit appeared to now be dead and the battery unable to hold a charge when I went to use it recently. I msg’d the seller and they kindly sent out a replacement Li cell at their expense! Unit is working well again, really appreciate those manufacturers/sellers that will go out of their way make things right.

    Golden Review Award: 51 From Our UsersIf you are looking for a good camera this one has a good resolution, the exact quality you need in this type of viewing. Easy to use and fast on the pinpoint targeting. One future it could use in next models is an auto shut off. Battery lasts descent. Wouldn’t be hard to solder in a new 18650 lithium cell with the time comes to replace the battery.

    Golden Review Award: 5 From Our UsersGert auspacken, einschalten, funktioniert! Bei den ersten Versuchen war ich begeistert. Heizungsrohre im Boden finden, Wrmeverluste an der Hausfassade… perfekt. Spektrum Naturalfarben, glhendes Eisen oder Grautne Schwarz bis wei – alles prima. Auch die gute Auflsung der IR-Bilder besttigt sich. Leider gibt es auch einen Nachteil: Die Farben auf dem Bildschirm lassen sich nicht fest den Temperaturen zuordnen (zumindest habe ich noch keine solche Funktion gefunden). Somit sind die Bilder (z.B. von Hausfassaden) nicht vergleichbar: die hchste gemessene Temperatur entspricht immer der hellsten Farbe, die tiefste Temperatur der dunkelsten Farbe. Damit kann die hellste Farbe z.B. +1 oder auch +8C sein. Die dunkelste kann -2C an der Hauswand oder auch -50C am Himmel sein. IR-Bilder sehen immer gleich aus, obwohl auf jedem Bild andere Temperaturen dargestellt werden. Hier sollte der Hersteller noch nachbessern.

    Thie camera is good for my purposes. However, there are better and more expensive alternatives. It can be used for several purposes: detecting heat leaksi, over heated electrical installations, etc. However, the picure quality is so low that you do not want to post them on the Internet.

    It is a workhorse but nothing to brag about.

    The case does not close properly. As a result, I have dropped the camera already twice.

    Golden Review Award: 3 From Our UsersFor the price, it’s excellent. I use it for home inspections. 320×240 is the minimum thermal resolution I’d recommend using for that purpose. I’m able to find active wet spots with no problem with this camera. For this price point you wont get any cool features like wifi sharing. But if you’re on a budget and just need a thermal camera that has good imaging, this is a great bang for your buck. Only issue I have with it is the micro-usb location. Cordnit comes with is fine. Others may not fit innthe small recessed access slot. Other usb cords seem to charge the camerw, but dont work forndata tranfer when hooked up to my laptop. May not be making a full connection due to the recessed location?

    Golden Review Award: 4 From Our UsersGute Thermalkamera fr Haus-Wrme-Leckagen;
    Optik ist in diesem Bereich und mit diesem Gert wesentlich besser als Handy-Thermal-Camera-USB-Wachel-Installationen.
    Auch ist die 9Hz-Performance, wirklich besser als Handy-Thermal-Cameras, weil diese Handy-Dinger meist unter der eigenen Software-Bremse leiden, und haben oft nur 1Hz-Standbild-Wechsel-Performance.

    Deshalb scheint es fast so als wenn die 9hz-Performance der HT-19 wesentlich besser ist.

    Auch ist der interne Bildspeicher sehr gro und vertrgt viel Bildmaterial.

    Nur die Beschriftung der Tasten ist gewhnungsbedrftig, weil die “Enter-Taste” rechts auen eigentlich die Beschriftung ESC (Escape) von der Funktion her tragen mte.

    Golden Review Award: 15 From Our UsersIch hab mir die Kamera gekauft, um primr selbstgebastelte Elektronik Platinen auf Wrme/Hitze entwicklung hin zu berprfen. Ich hab auch ein Temperaturmessgert mit K-type Fhler, aber wenn man da mal an einem Mepunkt war, dauert es, bis man zu einem anderen Messpunkt messen kann, weil der Fhle ja selbst ein wenig Wrme hlt.
    Daher hab ich mich entschieden es mal mit dieser Kamera zu probieren. Ich hab andere Modelle angeschaut. Was mit zu diesem Model gebracht hat ist das Preis Leistungsverhltnis. Bei Leistung im speziellen die Auflsung.
    Bei den anderen Features unterscheiden sich die Kameras nicht sehr.
    Ein wenig enttuscht war ich zunchst von den “Mischbildern”, wenn man das IR Bild mit einem Bild der “normalen” Kamera berlagert. Da die Objektive nebeneinander liegen kommt es natrlich zu einer Verschiebung der Bilder zueinander. Bei greren Entfernungen kein Problem, aber gerade im Nahbereich sehr rgerlich. Meine Enttuschung hat sich aber gelegt, weil die Kamera eine manuelle Korrekturmglichkeit hat.

    Golden Review Award: 13 From Our UsersDie Bildqualitt ist recht ordentlich, verglichen mit Gerten anderer Hersteller in hnlicher Preislage. Dennoch mchte ich 2 Sterne abziehen.
    Es ist befremdend, dass ein solches Gert ohne deutsche Bedienungsanleitung ausgeliefert wird. Gerade Wrmebildgerte bedrfen einer genauen und verstndlichen Anleitung. Diese wird nur online auf ausdrckliche Nachfrage nachgereicht, sonst htte ich direkt retourniert.
    Man darf die dann selber drucken. Unmglich fr einen Hndler, der in Deutschland Umsatz machen mchte.
    Bisher war nirgend ersichtlich und zu entnehmen, ob und wo es in Europa eine Servicestation gibt, falls der Reparaturfall eintreten sollte. Die Cam wre ein wenig zu teuer, um diese zu verschrotten.
    Versand nach China zu teuer und zu aufwndig.
    Es beginnt bei dem Verschleissteil Akku. Man kann diesen wohl tauschen, es wre aber nicht schlecht zu erfahren, wo ich das Teil herbekomme.
    Ein an sich gutes Gert, bei dem nur der Service im Versorgungsfall fraglich erscheint.
    Und wie langlebig die Cam ist, wird sich erst zeigen.
    Update:
    Nach nun einiger Einsatzzeit mchte ich behaupten, fr den Preis unschlagbar, verglichen mit anderen in hnlicher Preislage. Eine deutsche Anleitung wurde per Mail nachgeliefert. Auch weiss ich nun, wie man den Akku tauschen kann.
    Wollen wir hoffen, den Service nie in Anspruch nehmen zu mssen.
    Aber die Cam ist super.

Das Gert kommt in einer hochwertigen “Pappschachtel” daher und hat eine schn geschnittene Schutzhlle. Die Aufnahmen sind in dieser Gertepreisklasse atemberaubend, ich fand keinen anderen Hersteller mit dieser Pixelanzahl und zu diesem Preis. Das berlagern mit der 2. Kamera ist eine interessante Option die einem das identifizieren warmer Objekte erleichtert. Man erkennt damit (kleinste) Wrmebcken im Haus und kann auch mal von auen ein brauchbares Fassadenbild machen. Fr Energiesparfchse ist ein Gang durch die Zimmer sehr aufschlureich (Standbyzecken werden enttarnt). Ich wrde es mir wieder kaufen.

    Golden Review Award: 10 From Our UsersDie Wrmebildkamera funktioniert wie erwartet, und macht im reinen IR Bild Modus aussagekrftige Bilder (Beispielbilder: Computer innenleben, 3D Drucker Elektronik, warmgesessener Brostuhl). Im mixed Modus ist der versatz zu IR- und Normalbild allerdings recht ausgeprgt – macht aber nichts weil die Auflsung im reinen IR Modus ausreichend ist.
    Bildbertragung zum PC geschieht ber einen USB Anschluss. Die Kamera wird als USB Massenspeicher erkannt, und die Bilder knnen einfach kopiert werden. USB3 war dabei hier kein Problem, Erkennung und Anbindung unter Linux ebenfalls nicht (xubuntu 18.04).

    Massiver Kritikpunkt: Es wird kein Netzteil mit Eurostecker mitgeliefert, sondern irgendein (asiatisches?) Netzteil. Die Kamera kann aber ber einen USB Anschluss aufgeladen werden.

With this camera I was able to see where the heat was leaking into the attic. The skylights were a big source of heat leaking but it also found other areas too. It was perfect to find and seal off the heat leaks from the living area into the attic. I added insulation in those areas to seal them off and the condensation cleared up. Just for fun I took a pic of my heated floor and you can see the coils. My dog too.

Per il prezzo, anche se non basso, fa perfettamente il suo lavoro anche se le prestazioni non sono certamente equivalenti a quelle di una termocamera FLIR, che per costa tipicamente alcune migliaia di euro. Buona la risoluzione 320×240 e la possibilit di commutare con la semplice pressione di un tasto fra la telecamera ad infrarossi e quella video incorporata. Ottima scelta, quindi, per chi non abbia particolari esigenze specialistiche professionali.

This small camera works great for what we are doing. ….Our larger unit is used for more commercial and industrial applications…..The small Unit seems to be the one our Home inspectors grab to do the work. This Unit stopped working 3 months after we purchased it….Not sure why……We contacted the supplier (XT Instrument) and they replaced the unit for us. We are pleased with the Unit and pleased with the service :”XT Instrument” provided.

    It’s sensitive enough that, wearing socks, you can see your footprints behind you as you go through the house. You can instantly see what devices on the wall or around the house are heating up while off (some are surprising). You can instantly see studs in the wall when there is a temperature difference. Very nice.

    Golden Review Award: 9 From Our UsersI am a solar consultant and battery system designer and installer for the renewable energy industry and my main purpose for purchasing this tool is to ensure there are no terminations of wiring in any of the AC and DC sections of the equipment I install that will show an elevated temperature due to resistance at terminations or to improperly sized conductors (wiring).
    The HTI-19 should also be valuable to test the operating temperature of inverters, converters, and charge controllers based on the ambient temperature of the installation site.

    I have just started my own beta-testing for the product to ensure it will meet my needs.

    In my first test, I aimed the camera at a panelboard to determine if there were any hot spots (indicating excessive temperatures due to loose connections on the bus bar or wiring on an attached breaker). I did find a loose AFCI breaker attachment to the bus-bar that resulted in tempertures that were 21 degrees fahrenheit higher than any other areas in the panelboard.

    The second test I did was in a junction box that houses control circuitry and a contactor that feeds a 2000 watt heating element in a hot water heater. I was surprised to find that the camera was able to detect temperatures in the 140-144 degree range in this junction box. The HTI-19 was detecting the temperature of the coil which is below all wiring on the contactor. The coil is responsible for the electromagnetic field the allows the contactor to be energized to allow 240 volts to the 2000 watt hot water heating element.

    The third test I did was to see if I could locate metal trusses that are in the ceiling above my office that serve as both floor and ceiling joists. It was rather easy to differentiate the metal studs from the rest of the structure due to the temperature differential (the studs were 9 degrees cooler that the rest of structure).

    My only issue that I have encountered so far is the lack of the ability to attach a lanyard to the actual camera (not the case) as I will be using this camera on rooftop installations and in commercial panelboards where I do not want the possibility of inadvertently dropping the camera.

    The HTI-I9 will also be valuable to assess a site prior to commencing work to ensure their are no thermal issues in existing equipment before work is started. A famous adage in the electrical industry is the last electrician in to a site will get blamed for the sins of previous installations.

    FYI, I have been looking for an IR Camera for the past 2 years and the cost of the usual suspects (Flir, Fluke, Etc.) has led me to acquire the HTI-19.

    So far, so good, but I will update this review if I encounter any issues that make my use of the HTI-19 limited due to deficiencies.
    Sincerely,
    Matthew Corona

Its not a FLIR, but at 1/5 to 1/10 the price of a FLIR, its a very good deal for anyone who doesn’t make a living with it.

    The ability to superimpose a photo view helps in many instances to provide context like electrical panel for example. With a higher resolution 320×240 IR sensor, technologies like FLIR’s MSX is less relevent. MSX is helpful if you have a 80×60 IR sensor.

    Due to the distance between the sensor and camera, the super imposed images are sometime misaligned depending on distance. The HT-19 has ‘parallax’ adjustment in the menu to align the IR with the photo.

    I initially wanted a USB smart phone based Thermal Imager, but ended up deciding on a more durable stand alone device that I can abuse and drag thru a crawl space or attic.

    One thing I wish the HT-19 can do is user settable temperature range. The temperature scale (color) is relative to what is in the frame, so it keeps changing colors depending on the high and lows. This makes it impossible to compare photos of adjacent areas.

    Overall, battery life is very good, Having to plug in to a computer USB to transfer photos out of device is a bit inconvenient, but I have no issues if it means keep the device affordable. Refresh rate is a bit slow.

    Recommended for anyone working on energy efficient remodels and new construction; also great for locating radiant floor tubings.

    Don’t get it if you just want a thermal image of your cat or dog, its cool but gets old pretty quickly. However, I have used it to find my old dog who ran after some wild critters into the woods.

    Impressive Thermal Imager at an affordable price

    Golden Review Award: 2 From Our UsersGood value for it’s cost compared with a Flir.
    Resolution is good. Not sure how many pictures per second it does but way better than flir.

    Golden Review Award: 11 From Our UsersHo confrontato questa termocamera con una professionale, ho ottenuto dei risultati molto soddisfacenti,
    Facile da usare, men anche in italiano, subito pronta appena arrivata. Definizione 320×240! Manca lo zoom che aumenterebbe la definizione soprattutto per le immagini vicine, questa funzione riservata a dispositivi di fascia pi alta. Non economicissima ma nel rapporto prezzo prestazioni comparato con quelle sul mercato risulta vincente.

    Ottima termocamera con caratteristiche semi professionali

    Golden Review Award: 3 From Our UsersFor the price, it gives you some pretty good views. Compared to a Flir, I’d say your about 90% at 1/2 the price. Compared to the Seek camera it’s a huge improvement. Now that it’s winter here, I could see the difference in triple glazed windows compared to just double thermal pane in my house. Difference was 10f degrees. Found some areas in my daughters house where the squirrels got in and there was no insulation. You can clearly see the studs in the walls where there is no thermal break.

    Golden Review Award: 8 From Our UsersI gave it all 5 stars because for the price the hti-19 is as close one could get to a 1000-2000$ unit;
    I know very well what I get this unit for, didn’t expect to watch movies or take clear pictures on it, I build homes quite often and it does a lot of work for me on that regards.
    Nr one reason I got it, I had an expensive unit (won’t mention brand) that got stolen and in my latest house, my hardwood installer covered one of the heat registers in one of the bedrooms and didn’t want to go on a fishing expedition and try to find it blindly, this unit makes that work a smooth experience since will give you the difference in tem, mind you, will not read thru material like drywall or hardwood, but will tell you the difference in temp with regards to these materials.
    Also, I happen to keep bees as well, and again, while it can’t read temp thru the hive box, will tell me the difference in temp with regards to any location of the box, hence allowing me to see where the bees are clustered without me opening the lid and cool their environment and force them to overwork to reheat their cluster, this toy does that for me and that is of great benefit to me.
    Hope that helps, yeah, there are people out there that might feel that they’ve been cheated with regards to description, but unless you know what you wanted for the value of it, don’t complain for the wrong reason.

    Golden Review Award: 3 From Our UsersWorks great, we have been renovating / remodeling a home and have been able to troubleshoot many issues with insulation, electrical, AC and heatthe different uses and applications can help me be very thorough at work. Color differences help me find air leaks and energy loss while also helping me discover possible leaks or areas that are saturated with water but not showing signs on the surface yet. I’m very happy with this device!

    Golden Review Award: 40 From Our UsersThis HTI-19 thermal camera has functioned as expected. It captures a large range of temperatures and has been working well. I also wanted to image PC board components, but the lens only focuses down to 1.5 feet. For macro work, I added a 20 mm diameter, FL 50.8 mm, ZnSe lens. That is available from Amazon and lets the camera focus at 2 inches. To mount the macro lens, I replaced the stock lens cap with my own 3D printed, flip up cap/ macro lens holder. Now it works for both general distance and up close inspections.

    My macro lens holder can be found on Thingiverse as a “BunnyScience” project

    ZnSe lens to enable macro work is here on Amazon at https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07B8XX1JL

    Very pleased with the purchase. Only niggle was the microusb jack being so far inset that most of my plugs won’t reach it. Had to trim plastic off my micro-use cable plugs to fit into camera. Other than that, it’s worked perfectly.

    No video nor thermographic data in images, but I can do everything I need with the JPEG output.

    Useful thermal imaging at reasonable price

    Golden Review Award: 4 From Our UsersBought it and very happy with the results
    Researched it online, bought it and very happy with the results. Our company uses it for inspections of equipment control panels, detecting problematic hotspots in advance. As an example of the resolution, if you press your hand against a wall for 5 sec, the camera clearly picks up the ‘heat-print’ left behind.

    Golden Review Award: 8 From Our Usersi bought this to figure out whether my house had insulation and found it so helpful. it showed me at a glance exactly where i was missing insulation in the attic. the overlay made it so useful because i could show the worker going up there exactly where to go and i could monitor whether he was doing a good job without going up there myself.
    same for the walls i have heard of workers who have cheated people out of insulation but that wouldn’t happen with one of these as proof. it made it easier to know what would be needed and to budget for it without surprises.

    Golden Review Award: 13 From Our Users” Camera is actually better than the E5’s from another well know company that we have used for that last 4 or 5 years and cost approximately 1100.00 each (14 units). The clarity and the definition of the HT-19 is superior to the E5 and is easier to set up. The savings are an added bonus compared to the clarity and definition.” Battery life is as stated.

    Golden Review Award: 19 From Our UsersA qualifier here is that this is the first thermal imaging camera I’ve owned. I did quite a bit of research, though, before buying which included watching Youtube videos and reading. The majority of the videos were made with different FLIR models, which cost far more. I can’t tell the difference. The only real difference I see between camera models is resolution and whether it uses WIFI for download, which would definitely be convenient.

    It is easy to use. I do recommend watching some demonstration videos if you have never used one. There are methods of framing the image to maximize the image that you are after. I have already located a ground fault plug the needs investigation, and a furnace vent that needs insulation.

    I would be very interested to use this unit alongside an equivalent resolution FLIR model to see if there is any real difference other than the price tag. The videos I’ve watched on using thermal imaging in home inspection sure haven’t shown any difference.

    Golden Review Award: 28 From Our UsersI wanted this to track down some bad insulation, and I ws sure there would be other uses for it, I don’t use it for tracking animals when it’s dark. I’m not sure it would have enough range for people who want to do that. But no issues with looking at hot and cold spots on my roof from 50ft away.

    This is my first imaging camera, and while I read up on them quite a bit, I’m still a newbie at using one. And it’s also not like I’ve had one before, so I don’t have any personal experience of features that I liked or didn’t like.
    I had read that the higher resolution of this one at 320×240 would show detail that would lessen the need for a feature that blends a visible light image with the IR image. This camera does have that feature, but I find I rarely use it. It works, but I find that I get all the detail I need without it.

    I’m happy with the spec, and the documentation that comes with it is adequate, but I would have liked to have had more detailed specs before I bought it. When I looked at the outside of the box, the shortest focal length for this unit was listed as 2meters and that of the HT-18 at 0.5 meters. I was concerned at this, but I find I don’t have any difficulty making out detail at half a meter away, so no concerns there.

    So like I’d imagine many people are, I’ve just got this, and it’s a fantastic new toy that’s already been useful, so i’m 5 star happy with it. I’ve only given it 4 stars because even if I plan to be more expert in using one, I’m not yet. It has some features that others have complained about in other reviews. it won’t record video; that doesn’t seem like a problem to me. If it did, it would need more storage, and then it would cost more. I’ve seen complaints about the button sequence to store an image, but I really don’t have a problem with it. Maybe if I knew more i would have.

    Golden Review Award: 87 From Our UsersOverall: good thermal imaging camera, but read pros & cons first.
    It seems real resolution has been improved quite a bit in comparison with HTI-18 (advertised as 320×240).
    Note, min focal distance is 1.5-2m.
    Pros:
    – Good resolution, but noisy (see comments below)
    – Pretty good price
    – Relatively small
    Cons:
    – Noisy in low-temperature regions (probably due to small sensor and lens)
    – No video
    – JPEG as output, no raw data
    – No custom/fixed scale – auto-scale only

    But sensor and lens are pretty good – most cons could be fixed in software, but don’t think they will upgrade firmware for this model though.
    See several examples attached, all images were taken with no real-image blending, just IR:
    1. Yamaha receiver
    2. Kitchen with hot kettle in the top-left corner and heat vents on the right side
    3. Car outside (Black-White mode)
    4. Car’s engine (Black-White mode)
    5. Car’s front seats with turned on heating
    6. Water heater with hot and cold pipes
    7. House outside
    8. Outside wall
    9. Wall with visible studs
