Nice !! At this point I think it's a great choice. I'll be interested to here your thoughts on it after you've played with it.

I'm curious why did you go for this one instead of the first one you looked at

Wider temperature range, connects to iPhone screen (larger), combines optical and IR camera (selectable) so you can identify the hot spot component better, better IR camera.

Honestly, didn't spend more than 45 minutes researching, unlike me, but I've been disappointed in the past with 'settling' for less than high quality tools.

Hoping it works out..
