My only complaint is the battery can go quickly so charge completely (and bring a portable power pack, or have a place to plug in and recharge for a while) if you’re going to be in the field for a long day.

Mine paid for itself pretty quickly with client satisfaction and a little bit of “gee whiz” factor when doing facilities assessments.
Good to know. The Seek model doesn't have it's own battery and uses the phone battery's juice. I suspect the newer Flir branded stuff has a batter that lasts longer now than the models from a couple of years ago.
