Thanks to Brad Pool for sending me the transcripts as I missed the first part of the chat session. Below is the transcripts of tonights chat session!  ;D Thanks for John McKenna for showing up and answering questions and talking about his course as well.

You have joined HIP.
John_Adrian_Sopher_HIP has joined HIP.
John_Adrian_Sopher_HIP: Are we talkin yet?
Brad_Pool_HIP: Not yet. Just waiting on the host.
David_A__Andersen_HIP: Hi guys
John_Adrian_Sopher_HIP: Well Im here!  lol
David_A__Andersen_HIP: are you getting a camera?
Patrick_Wiseman_HIP has joined HIP.
John_Adrian_Sopher_HIP: you who?
David_A__Andersen_HIP: you
David_A__Andersen_HIP: john...
John_Adrian_Sopher_HIP: not anytime soon.  I cant afford one.  Im subing all my work out
David_A__Andersen_HIP: I was interested in doing that too
John_Adrian_Sopher_HIP: Its a smart move.  
Patrick_Wiseman_HIP: Hi Guys
John_Adrian_Sopher_HIP: The guy Im using called me up and I said lets talk
John_Adrian_Sopher_HIP: He charges me $60 an hour and I charge my customer $100 hour.
Brad_Pool_HIP: Of those using IR in their inspections, how many IR inspections do you do as a percentage?
David_A__Andersen_HIP: I was putting a program for HI's but I don't know where it will go. I'd like to move away from HI to HVAC and (related) IR.
John_Adrian_Sopher_HIP: I havent done any yet.  I've only been teamed up with him for a week now.
David_A__Andersen_HIP: 100% ; but they don't order it ahead of the HI.
Brad_Pool_HIP: Fluke sent me a camera for a week. I am goming to get it for another week in the future and run a test market in my area.
John_Adrian_Sopher_HIP: Brad thats a good idea
Brad_Pool_HIP: Most of our referrals are from realtors so we have to be careful not to step on toes.
Patrick_Wiseman_HIP: Ratheon is supposed to releasing a camera under $1000.00
David_A__Andersen_HIP: I will tell you guys one thing, people will not flock to your offerings. They don't know!
John_Adrian_Sopher_HIP: How good is it though
David_A__Andersen_HIP: Don't play the $$$ Game. You get what you pay for. You just need to know what you want to do with it and get the right CAM
John_Adrian_Sopher_HIP: egggggzackly
John_Adrian_Sopher_HIP:  lol
Brad_Pool_HIP: I would rather spend a bit more and make sure I had one that would not be outfdated for a few years.  I was told that when you send them in for calibration every couple of years that it is esaier for the company to upgrade to software and hardware to keep them all easy to work on.  
Patrick_Wiseman_HIP: Won't know until it's released, Good company. Like yourself I really like Fluke as a company. I also did a lot of work with their testing departmant.
David_A__Andersen_HIP: It will be outdated before it arrives! ;-)
John_Adrian_Sopher_HIP: I like Fluke.  I would reccomend them for allmost any item they sell
David_A__Andersen_HIP: I have purchased cam's on close out. I sell them years later for whay I pay for them and move ahead.
Brad_Pool_HIP: I have used FLIR and Fluke and prefer the Fluke.  I don't need a laser pointer on the IR camera
David_A__Andersen_HIP: Yes you do. More than you think.
David_A__Andersen_HIP: There are all kinds of blls and whistles, but thaqt one you need.
Brad_Pool_HIP: Do you use it for marketing to the client?
David_A__Andersen_HIP: Yes, always
David_A__Andersen_HIP: Once they see it, it's all over!

David_Lauby__HIP: It is not a HI without a report - not a thermal wo a report - we give a written report

John_McKenna_HIP: InterNACHI has good discount on FLUKE... $4000

Patrick_Wiseman_HIP: Is the problems worth using a blower door?/
Dennis_R_Goudreau_HIP: actually Dave Im waiting for it to come in
David_A__Andersen_HIP: I would go B60 rather than a 50
John_McKenna_HIP: Some like the blower door and some get by without it.
William_R__DeVries_HIP: Blower door is a different form of energy auditing
David_A__Andersen_HIP: If your using blower door just to get air infiltration, your not using it for what it costs.
David_Macy_HIP: Thats what I want to do are energy audits and it seems most use the blower door.
John_McKenna_HIP: Good point David A
Dennis_R_Goudreau_HIP: did everyone see dave valley story
William_R__DeVries_HIP: exactly david A,  your wasting money
David_A__Andersen_HIP: I have a BD, long before IR came around.... any questions?
John_McKenna_HIP: Duct tape works good for air leaks... just joking
John_Adrian_Sopher_HIP: lol
David_A__Andersen_HIP: BD tells you how much leak, IR shows you where
David_A__Keating_HIP: What is dave valley story
David_A__Andersen_HIP: is he here?
Patrick_Wiseman_HIP: No
William_R__DeVries_HIP: David Valley did a story on Audits, was well written

David_A__Andersen_HIP: The problem with BD is that there are a lot of things that leak, and they should...What is acceptable?
Dennis_R_Goudreau_HIP: point being fo me any way being new to IR what Dave did a energy sudit or survey
David_Macy_HIP: I sent Dave Valley a personnal message to inquire about IR. I think I read most of his posts.
David_Macy_HIP: Is it better to take the training and then buy a camera or visa versa?
John_Adrian_Sopher_HIP: okay so what resolution should we go for if we want to do other stuff outside of home inspections?
David_A__Andersen_HIP: most that come to calss ave not taken it out of the box
David_A__Andersen_HIP: You can go either way.

Gregory_Scheer_HIP: I thought only major corporations can certify someone as level one or two
Gregory_Scheer_HIP: and only their own
