In June 2013, Garrards ran a competition to win a brand new Flir i7 Hi-Res Thermal Imaging Camera valued at $2999.  The draw was made and announced in July that year when Paul Kennedy from Wise Pest Control in NSW was announced as the winner. Paul was rapt to have won the Camera, being a great fan of the Flir i7.

FLIR i3 / i5 / i7 is the smallest, lightest and most affordable thermal imaging camera on the market. It is incredibly easy to use and requires no former experience. It really is a matter of "point-shoot-detect" to obtain high-quality thermal images that will immediately give you the thermal information you need.

ease-of-use  

Outstanding ease-of-use

The camera is extremely easy to understand and operate, designed for entry-level users. The camera is intuitive and comes with a full manual.

 

automatic 

Fully automatic
Produces instant, point-and-shoot JPEG thermal imagery that carries all required temperature data and can be stored internally or externally, sent and analyzed.

 

focus free

Focus free
The fixed focus free lens makes using the FLIR i5/i7 a snap.

 

lightweight

Compact and lightweight
FLIR i3/i5/i7 weighs only 365 g, and is easy to store in a belt pouch.

Reporting and analysis software included
FLIR Tools software is included and the camera is also compatible with the more powerful FLIR Reporter.

 

Accuracy

Outstanding measurement/accuracy
High accuracy of ±2°C or ±2% produces sensitive thermal images for general purpose maintenance analysis. Measures temperatures up to +250°C and detects temperature differences as small as 0.10°C.
