Just got my E4. Unfortunately, it appears to have the updated software so I can't do the hack to increase the resolution. :( Either way, even with the low resolution but combined with the MSX, it is still quite useful.

Why am I just hearing of this hack now? :p

I would've bought one in a heartbeat if I had heard about it back then.

Shame that they firmware cripple their units.

OOOOOHHHH! Turned out I had a 1.22.0 firmware in mine. Downloaded stuff from eevb and tinkered with it for a few hours then tried this one until I successfully modified my E4 for 320X240 resolution + additional menus. I'm really happy now. :drool:

I stumbled across your post, and I thought of another site I use to build electronics.
There is a way to make larger sudo FLIR images if you are interested. The Store is called Adafruit.com, a Raspberry PI site. The have tutorials on how to build FLIR cheaply (and a 1000 other things), it not what you expect, but it may give you a FLIR fix till your budgets like mine improve from Laser expenses. Google it and then search for FLIR in thier 'Learning' section. I am currently working on a semi autonomous R2 -D2 for my boy. I would post a link but I feel like that would be advertising. BTW anyone know how to get ahold of Mrcrouse; I PMed him about a host. Either my rep is to low or he's super busy at school.

Click to expand...

What distributor did you get yours through? Looks like most are selling with firmware 2.3x now.

I asked my sister from the US to order from the FLIR amazon store. I didn't think I would get an early firmware. Must be an old stock.

too long; didn't watch: $200. 206x156. has point measurement features. Image noise is a bit higher than flir one, and contrast is not has high. -40 to 330C range (way higher than flir one, and even a bit higher than e-series)
