Thread: Flir driver software help needed

So I have a flir first mate, it runs on the 4x aa is big and bulky and only use it rarely as have been using a leupold lto. The flir gives a better quality image and better contrast. Had the flir for 2? Years and never bothered to play much with it other than turn it on and use it.

Now trying to get it to talk to the laptop/tablet using the use output and a cable, can't seem to get it to work.... Anyone else tried this? Anyone got ideas on who to ask? Can't even recall who I brought it off (was an online retailer that much I can recall)

Other issue is it EATS aa batteries (like 30mins off 4), going to play with the idea of hard wiring a 6volt battery onto it or working out a voltage adapter to run it off the cigarette plug in the truck, anyone tried this?

@gadgetman or @mudgripz might have some ideas
