I absolutely love this camera. I picked up 5 of them on eBay about 6 months ago - a guy was letting them go for about $160/ea. That was a good deal compared to what others were charging. But since then, I've realized I can use a lot more. Unfortunately, the guy had no more to offer, and prices were back well north of $400.
Until earlier this week - there was a guy listing a lot of 8 of them for $975. The photos looked like they were in great shape - but his listing had them as "untested/not-working/for-parts". I went a few rounds with the seller and it was clear he didn't have the history on them, nor the ability/interest to test them. I offered him $600 and he accepted. They came in today. I tested each one of them. The look and function like brand new. All 8 of them. Comes out to about $75 a piece! I feel like I hit the lottery.
Anyway, here's one of the more compelling clips that made me a believer in the tech. My optical camera that is paired with the thermal never saw any of the pigs.
