Flir One Pro LT Review

Will Greenwald — Thu, 07 Feb 2019 18:01:00 +0000
The Flir One Pro LT camera accessory offers thermal imaging with some powerful metering options.
Professionals in construction, medicine, and aviation use dedicated thermal cameras that can cost thousands and even tens of thousands of dollars.

Flir One Pro Review

Will Greenwald — Thu, 07 Feb 2019 18:01:00 +0000
The Flir One Pro is the most powerful consumer-level thermal camera accessory available, with remarkably high resolution and temperature measurement.
Thermal imaging cameras are fundamentally low-resolution. The thermal core they use can't pick up a tiny fraction of the number of pixels you get on even a cheap conventional camera sensor, and even models with QVGA (320-by-240) resolution can cost thousands of dollars and are limited to specific professional applications. …

The Polaroid Insta-Share Printer ($199.99) is another in the Moto Mod lineup, a series of accessories that snap onto your phone to add functionality it isn't capable of on its own. But, despite the novelty factor, it's not one of the better Mods available. Print quality is …

Apple iPhone 7 Smart Battery Case Review

Ajay Kumar — Tue, 25 Apr 2017 16:29:00 +0000
Apple's Smart Battery Case for the iPhone 7 has a pleasant, grippy feel, a Lightning port, and an on-screen battery indicator, but you don't get a lot extra juice for the price.
Apple's $99 Smart Battery Case for the iPhone 7 looks similar to the iPhone 6/6s model that came before it, but features a decent bump in battery capacity (to 2,365mAh) and altered port cutouts. It remains a unique-looking battery case with a pleasant, grippy feel, and a solid …

The PowerCore 2200 is a light and grippy iPhone 7 battery case from the maker of our favorite battery pack, Anker. Though it doesn't offer nearly as much extra battery life as the portable PowerCore 10000, the PowerCore 2200 ($51.99) is much lighter and slips right on …
