Here's a $120usd FLIR - how does it compare with a cheap plug in USB phone module?

Guess it's just missing a mounting case?

80x62 pixels, there are already other cheaper sensors in this range. FLIR is way more expensive but has much higher res.

Can you provide some links or something? I desire to own a thermal camera but they are just so expensive.

I don't need anything fancy but higher res would obviously be cooler.

Oh, that looks pretty dang good.

300 USD is probably a bit too much for me to spend on something that I have no real use for but its very neat.

Actually the flir lepton is not so high res either. Try digikey for higher res and higher priced modules.
