I'm considering picking up a FLIR camera to locate the occasional short that is too minimal to locate from injecting voltage and feeling what heats up. Would a FLIR be able to locate such minor differences in temperature, when my hand/lip aren't sufficient? I've had a few shorts that are just so slight, it's nearly impossible to find them. I know a FLIR is considered "too much" for most cases, but there are some cases where I feel it would be useful.
If anyone uses one; what's a good model to pick up? Has it helped in these cases?
Thanks!
