Is there any material that I can use to line the top of my grow with so that a FLIR flyover won't see a hotspot?

idk wat ur askin

I read somewhere legislation banned the use of evidence from FLIR in court, yes...no?

keep your grow in a inner room with no windows and vent into your area dispersing the heat? because I saw a show and it said they busted most people through huge heat signatures coming from basement windows/leaks

Other than insulation that would somehow keep the heat from reaching exterior surfaces there aren't many options.

I know what you're asking and while there's no guaranteed method for protecting yourself from detection, if you take the nature of thermal imaging and electromagnetic radiation imaging technology into account, what you end up with is an issue of insulation. Since what you are trying to protect yourself from is the detection of hotspots given off by HID lighting, what you need to do is introduce a thermally insulated barrier between your hotspot and the detection device. At Home DePot in the building materials section you will find an assortment of insulation materials. What you are looking for is anything with a high 'R' factor, which represents the material's resistance to heat transfer. The easiest thing I think you'll find to work with is a foil lined, foam board that comes in 4'X8' sheets and can be worked pretty easily with a sharp knife. There's other stuff there as well that might better suit your needs, just make sure that there aren't any gaps in whatever you use, however you install it. Also, R factors add proportionally, so, the thicker you layer it, the more you're insulated.

read the same thing. basically what i got from it is that they are considered an invasion of privacy. the guys in the national park that were busted recently should have read the same article, it emphasized the now "increased" use of drones over national parks.

FLIR does not spot your grow lights!


FLIR cannot look through walls!


What FLIR does do is spots excessive heat coming from the OUTSIDE of your house or building. So basically they fly around and look at houses (even though it is illegal) and look for a lot of heat coming off a house. Then they pressure a CI to pretend he bought dope from the house and they get an illegal warrent.

The only way is to cool the air before it gets outside, I read somewhere that some people vent into their sewer line, not sure what kind of problems that would cause.

y not let it heat up another room? esp in da winter u can grow n heat ya other room next to it.

Yes or use the heat to keep your whole house warm. Just be sure to use dehumidifiers also so that your windows don't fog up as that's another indicator.

That foam board insulation the other guy mentioned is great shit btw...
