Why would anyone need this?
My Flir E4 camera arrived just yesterday and today I plan to investigate if overheating is the reason for my 3d printer (Ultimaker 2) to be unreliable on large prints. Also, I hope to have an insight which parts are getting hot and estimate the best place for a fan.

Are you going to "upgrade" it?

Good enough for seeing what PIN was typed on the atm machine?
You mean, so you can 1) mug the cardholder, and 2) try all the 4x4 combinations (or 5x5 for mine), which I believe will get the card eaten after a small number of failures? Seems like it would be much useful for snooping pinpad door lock codes, which often don't seem to care how many errors you enter in a short period.

I have a 100 year old house that I've been remodeling, and this would enable me to easily find air leaks. I'm skeptical that it will enable me to find studs through horsehair plaster (they show visible studs in the gallery), but it will certainly make it easier to locate the position of forced hot water pipes in the walls and ceilings.
You can clearly see the studs in in the second picture: http://www.eevblog.com/forum/testgear/flir-e4-thermal-imagin... That's a 1927 house with plaster & lath walls.
