In this review I take the Fotric TK6 thermal imaging camera (the touchscreen "gun" style model) around my house to hunt down all the devices quietly running up my energy bill. From overloaded power adapters to monitors, charging keyboards, gaming PCs, and USB power bricks, you'd be surprised what's putting out heat while you sleep. What I cover in this video:

Powering on and using the focus wheel for a sharp thermal image Touchscreen operation (a rare feature on thermal cameras) Real-time max temperature readings on screen A multi-outlet adapter hitting 102°F, possible fire hazard Ultrawide monitor hot spot at 104°F Keyboard USB-C charging heat signature Mouse drawing virtually no power Two gaming PCs (you can see the fans spinning on thermal!) USB power brick at 105°F and a USB drive pulling serious heat Checking outlets for dangerous heat signatures A sensitivity demo showing my footprints' heat transfer on the carpet

The TK6 is a sensitive, convenient tool for spotting energy waste and potential electrical fire hazards around the home. Thanks for watching. I'll catch you on the next review. Peace.
