Pinpoint heat sources up to 300 yards away. The Heatseeker is like a metal detector for heat. This may be the most valuable tool you will ever own. Built-in laser sighting makes acquiring targets easier. Can be turned on or off. When silence is critical, it has adjustable volume with 7 volume increments. Runs on one 9V battery which is included. It's 7" long and weights just 8-1/4 ozs. Includes belt pouch, earphone and wrist strap. Spot game, even in the thickest woods. You can find injured or downed game and detect thermal losses in buildings. Identify hot spots in equipment. Ensure safer building searches for military and law enforcement. Discover the presence of or differences in heat from almost any thermal source.
With so many on offer these days, it is great to have a name you can trust. This item is certainly that and will be a perfect buy. The distributor have added some great touches and this equals great value.

Quite good considering the price.
It's important to understand the limitations of a device like this. The device responds to changes in temperature as it's sensor sweeps an area. The sensor reads a small area and so quite a bit of scanning can be necessary to pinpoint a detected heat source. Using it with the laser pointer acquaints the user with the capabilities though. The infra-red laser is a really nice touch, though some form of night vision device is necessary to use that.
Points for improvement: On this model, there's no indicator for the level of the volume setting or the gain level. This is particularly irritating when setting the gain - there are 64(!) possible settings for the gain and no way to know what level it's presently at.
Alltogether, the product works reasonably well, is cheap and is simple and fun to use.

not very user friendly
not easy to figure out what setting your on .no intensity level display of heat you are tracking . must be aimed directly at a heat source , not just in general direction , before it picks up and gives a tone. also the tone does not change with intensity of heat changes .
It wasn't what I had in mind
I had intended to use this to find thermal 'leaks' in my house. In theory, it's supposed to 'beep' when it detects far infra-red (thermal radiation), and it does seem to, but not to the accuracy I was hoping.
I never used it to hunt down animals for hunting (I think that's what it's for), but I was trying to use it around windows and vents to see if there were places I could better insulate on my home.
Maybe my expectations were a little high for using this for something it wasn't designed for.
