The detector also displays temperatures in either Fahrenheit or Celsius on the LCD screen. Check for drafts or leaks around your fireplace, recessed lighting, electrical outlets, along floor molding, or any place that may have improper seals, caulking, or seams that aren't immediately visible. An included booklet gives you tips and instructions on how to seal leaks and improve insulation.Cut Energy Bills and Improve Your Home's Efficiency

Use the Thermal Leak Detector to check your refrigerator and freezer temperatures and efficiency. Diagnose engine problems related to overheating or coolant leaks to avoid costly repairs and mechanic bills down the road.

 Oh My gaud! March 4, 2010
R. McPeak (Humboldt, IA, US)
Easy to read, works easily but the hard part is then determining where the air leak is coming from. For the money good investment if you use to correct the problems. Of course there are a lot of free things you can do to detect air leaks or therma leaks, using incense to see if the smoke is affect, but this seems to work well and is easy to use. Now if it was compined with Xray to see into wall this would be a Great! product.
 Poor man's thermal imager March 4, 2010

Great Gadget March 3, 2010
Dominick Cassano (USA)
This is a great little gadget. I have identified and corrected the areas of heat loss around the home. Under the window moldings and around the attic access and around the boiler etc. I see a reduction in the oil usage and the house is warmer.
Black and Decker Thermo Reader March 1, 2010
James Chan (New York)
Very easy to use and definitley helps identify cold spots/ leaks. I'm not sure about the negative reviews about accuracy, but the unit is measuring the difference between one surface area to another, so as along as you start with a room temperature surface you will be good. Just point and shoot, the unit really helped with doors, windows, drafts around piping and recessed lighting fixtures. I also used it to determine behind which wall needed insulation.

Thomas D. Mccurry (Carson, WA USA)
Find home heat or cold leaks by pointing the device at your doors, windows,
attic opening, wall outlets and switches. See where you are leaking heat or
cold to or from the outside. Insulate the leaks and save energy and money.
