What to know before buying

Listing details to confirm

Listing details are contradictory or inconsistent on temperature accuracy: the details table says +/-1℃, while the feature text says ±2℃or 2%. The claimed 0.1℃ precision is distinct from accuracy. Confirm which specification applies before relying on readings. The listing also calls one cable a 'lighting cable', while compatibility text uses 'Lightning' for Apple devices. Compatibility excludes Mac and named Samsung models, and customer feedback reports mixed image clarity and connection experiences.

Frequently asked questions

Which phones and devices does the TC002C Duo support?

The listing claims support for USB-C devices including iPhone 15/16, OTG-enabled Android and Windows devices, and says a Lightning cable is included. It excludes Mac and Samsung Galaxy A15, S23, A55 and S10. Check the exact phone and connector before buying.

What temperature accuracy should I expect?

The listing conflicts: its details give +/-1℃, while feature text states ±2℃or 2%. It also claims precision up to 0.1℃, which is not the same as accuracy. Confirm the applicable accuracy with the seller before measurement-dependent work.

Does the 512x384 figure describe the thermal camera's resolution?

The title and feature text claim 512x384 TISR thermal resolution. The listing does not clarify the underlying native sensor resolution, so do not treat the TISR figure as an independently verified native resolution.

Is it suitable for finding draughts?

Customer feedback specifically reports usefulness for identifying cold-air entry areas. The camera is intended for household inspection, but results depend on conditions and the listing does not provide a specific draught-detection guarantee.
