I bought a phone with a heat camera and now I know exactly how hot my pizza is - Lemmy.World

Anything else I should check?

You can’t not say what phone has FLIR. Need details please! lol

There was a discontinued (and discounted) CAT phone I was looking at a while back. The phone itself was mostly unimpressive, but it did have a decent FLIR camera which is why I was looking at it.

What phone?!

Sorry for the Amazon link, but CAT no longer makes phones as of April 2024 so I can’t link to their website (which no longer exists):

It’s the S62 Rugged smartphone. www.amazon.com/…/B08YR66D1H

Ah sorry, it’s a second hand CAT s62
Okay, nice. So it is the same one I was looking at. Cool, but “bummer” at the same time. Was hoping there was a current/supported model with FLIR.

There’s a few models with thermal cameras, my doogee gt31v has one. I think ulefone and unihertz have models with them.

Don’t expect software updates.

How hot is your toilet water please.
Before and after the deed
An important aspect to specify. Good thinking!
I’ve seen FLIR thermal cam attachments for your phone not but a phone itself. Is that what you mean?
No, it’s a CAT s62 phone with built in FLIR
$300 for a phone with flir sounds like a good deal considering flir cameras are 300 and up
Check where the heat loss is occurring in your house.

For fucks sake

I’m so sorry for your heat :(
About 70% of your pizza is 70° hot!
I have a FLIR camera too and my gas range runs at 250°C confirm?
I bought one just to check equipment after I’ve run it all day. Checking the baler and combine for bad bearings periodically will hopefully prevent an expensive fire.
None of these cameras measure things in Kelvin, the only temperature scale that matters. Disappointing.
They do actually, it’s just that they convert it to Celsius right before displaying the value on the screen

It doesn’t count if you can’t see it!

Kelvin is the only legitimate way to measure temperature. Everything else is trivia. Duh.

Edit: I don’t have time for your downvotes. It’s 277 degrees outside and I don’t have a clean sweater.

You are actually upvoted, it’s just shown in Celsiusvotes.
I should have realized!

277 degrees? RIP

277 kelvin would be a nice temperature tho

I just said Kelvin was the only legitimate way to measure temperature. Of course 277 degrees Kelvin.
I was making a joke, if a pedantic one. You don’t measure Kelvin in degrees, it’s not °K, it’s just K. So 4 degrees Celsius is 277 kelvin.

Ohh two can play that game, your cited resolution has been superseded in 1967~

Edit: and for extra pedantry, the unit is spelled lowercase, the temperature scale uppercase c:
