      no.. its microbolometer sensors.
      you can even point them a the sun, its not prefered..
      as a general rule of thumb for uncooled microbolometer sensors
      100 mW/cm2 continuous input power is considered low-risk.
      6000°C (7.5-15 µm) corresponds to an energy level of about 2 W/cm2 at the detector. (equivalent to the sun's temperature)
      500°C (7.5-15 µm) corresponds to an energy level of 100 mW/cm2.
      You should not exceed 2 W/cm2 continuous input power for uncoolmed microbolometer sensors (+6000 degrees), you can risk an aspect of burn in, but its usually not permanent.
      older cooled models was more fragile or if you match the detectors spetral range with fx lasers you could damage the sensor, just as you can with visual light camera.
      high power lasers, very bright welding light, and to an extent the sun.. stay out of that.. these modern microbolometer sensors are quite forgiving, that vendors are putting labels on hence harsh light, is them being safe and taking precautions.
      The dude in the video was not even reading something hot or giving of intense IR, he was only reading something that was shiny that will fluke the ir-reading if you dont adjust the emissivitity to match.

    Cheers Tools, good comparison. I use the DeWALT, for a few years now. OK for a bench tool, softening hot melt glue for disassembly, appliance level heat shrink etc. Never noticed the noise.
    Not useful for an electrician who wants something to put mains cable heat shrink on, any breeze will make it pointless. Stick with a gas gun for that.
    Why not a corded tool for a technician? Cos cords are a PITA, that’s why.

      yes but.... isnt the hikoki metabo hpt platform the guys who will sell you the ac mains adaptor accessory thingy for it? then that might be a bit of a more reasonable solution. to have both corded and cordless modes in the same single tool. really i am more frustrated by the other tool manufacturers who never offers this. err well... mostly just makita now (ever since i have decided to go mainly with them first and foremost).
      in fact it might be possible? to use some sort of adaptor to convert the existing metabo one to makita 18v lxt platform. but then that would typically be significantly larger or clunky / cumbersome to have attached to the bottom of your hand held power tools. at least not without doing some sorts of custom mod or 'transplant operations' into an old dead makita battery pack. which might be ok for 18v platform. but this approach would surely not work on the 40v makita xgt platform. cannot solve it that way for those ones
