Why does the E01 HIKMICRO thermal imaging camera have two IR resolutions, IR resolution and SuperIR resolution?
The sensor IR Resolution is 96x96. Enabling the SuperIR image enhancement technology, the E01 thermal imager will upscale the resolution from 96 x 96 (9,216 pixels) to 240 x 240 (57,600 pixels) when viewing live and capturing photos.
-
Can I see in-floor heating problems with an infrared camera?
Although IR cannot directly see through solid objects, we can leverage conductive heat flow to quickly locate, or diagnose issues with underlying heating elements or hydronic leaks in a non-destructive way.
-
How can I utilize a thermal camera to pinpoint the location of a hot pipe leak?
By running hot water through the pipes for some time, the heat emitted from the water will be detectable on a thermal image. This will allow you to identify problem areas and accurately locate the source of the leak.
-
How do I transfer images from the thermal imaging camera to my PC?
The camera can be connected to a PC like a USB drive using the supplied USB-A to USB-C cable. (USB-C to USB-C is not supported)*Note: Switch off USB Cast Screen.

- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 16 February 2025This is a really impressive bit of kit for the price. You can easily pay ten times as much for a 'professional' version which is probably more accurate but for DIY/home use this is fine. It feels sturdy, with a rubberised plastic casing that doesn't look as if it would break if you dropped it, the display is clear if a bit on the small size, and there are numerous options in the menu for the display information and colours as well as other settings. The display will indicate a clear colour difference between temperatures as close as 1 degree C. I haven't been able to test its accuracy on any kind of reference object/temperature, but it seems close enough on things like body temperature. It has a substantial amount of internal storage for saved images (JPEGs) and these can be downloaded on to a PC etc with the supplied USB C cable. My only minor criticism is the supplied documentation, which is just a very basic quick-start guide. I had to go online to find full instructions.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 24 May 2025Good product
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 7 December 2024Adding an updated review of the E02 and of HIKMICRO company in general.
After buying the E01 I left a 3* review because I felt it was not up to my expectations and I returned it immediately.
After this, I was contacted by HIKMICRO and they offered me a deal on the E02 which I must say is a far better unit. The images are clearer and the information it provides seems to be more defined and of more use. And the build quality is the same and very good.
I would suggest going for the E02 (especially if it's on special price deal) as the extra cost would appear to be worth it.
As a company, they appear to be highly focused on customer service and I was very impressed.
Old review of E01
I had hoped for something more, maybe my expectations were too high, and this is all you get for the money. It just didn't give me the data I needed when looking at the house and identifying cold spots.
It did pick out the underfloor heating, but the resolution just didn't give me the detail I was after.
But it was a well-made bit of kit and if the images are good enough for you, there is certainly nothing to complain about in terms of build quality.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 13 March 2024I got this to look for cold spots in my house and my sons. Both are a bit old and leaky heatwise. Did the job perfectly and allowed us to find a few expected heat leaks and several we would have missed without this piece of kit. Not the highest definition out there but perfectly adequate for finding cold and hot spots and spotting silted-up radiators. it has a good solid feel and USB charging. You can transfer screenshots to PC if required. Unable to determine accuracy of actual temperature measurement ut that's not really the point as its spotting difference in level that's its real strong point and the main reason you would want to use it.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 6 January 2025I've wanted one of these things for years to enable me to debug Motherboards and quickly locate any hot spots. The price has always been to high for me to justify, and afford one, until now! This think works really well and has already enabled me to solve two issues on two different vintage computers. The battery still shows as full after several uses. The image is clear and easy to see what is going on. It even pinpoints hot spots for you. The laser for locating what you look at is very good once you figure out the angle to hold the device at. I use the laser for the cats to chase, and see how hot I can get them from running around after the laser! Haha :D All in all, a fantastic device at a very good price (I got my one for 150 quid after a discount). Rob :D
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 6 April 2025Top quality at a reasonable price,
I use this for my surveys on properties. Helps me to find the source of leaks and damp and possible causes, Really easy to use and understand.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 10 January 2025Tracking heating pipes in walls and floors doesn’t work. Maybe a more sensitive (expensive) version might…..
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 3 April 2025I had no idea thermal cameras had become so adorable. There's no catch it works well. It's not as low res as you might thing from the specs. It's probably interpolating but it does the job.

AaronReviewed in Spain on 26 June 2025
5.0 out of 5 stars Totalmente recomendable.
El aparato está muy bien. Incluso apuntando a mi escritorio detecta como los hielos del vaso están a 9 grados y la ventana a 32 al mismo tiempo. Me ha sido útil para encontrar los puntos de entrada de mayor calor en una habitación aparte del sitio obvio, que es por la ventana, y tomar medidas para aislar mejor.
Si tomáis capturas recordad poner bien la fecha y hora (en configuración pantalla, última opción), para que las fechas de las fotos coincidan con la realidad, porque la hora por defecto viene "a la virulé", que por cierto, solo puedes cambiar fecha, hora y minuto, los segundos no. En mi caso está 20 segundos adelantado siempre.
