Sunshine TB-10 Thermal Multimeter

Find the Short Faster with the Sunshine TB-10 Thermal Multimeter Every technician knows the dead phone that draws full current and shows no burn mark. You probe line after line with a multimeter, and the hour disappears. The Sunshine TB-10 Thermal Multimeter changes that routine. It pairs a thermal imager with a full multimeter in one handheld body, so you see the hot spot first and measure second. You stop guessing which capacitor or IC went into short, and your fault finding on phone motherboards starts with a clear picture instead of a blind probe session. Thermal Imaging That Points at the Fault The imager uses a 96×96 infrared sensor, and ISR processing lifts the display image to 240×240. That resolution reads multiple temperature points at once, so a whole section of the board shows up in one look. You power the board, watch the screen, and the shorted component glows hotter than its neighbours. The TB-10 tracks the centre, maximum and minimum temperature live, so you chase the hottest point as you move across the PCB. Five colour palettes (Iron Red, Rainbow, Fusion, White Heat and Red Heat) let you pick the view your eyes read fastest under shop lighting. When a boot loop issue or a charging issue traces back to a hardware fault, this view saves you real time. Macro Lens for Tiny Components Modern phone boards pack small passives and power ICs close together, so a wide thermal view alone does not always separate one part from the next. The macro lens on the TB-10 slides left and right, and in macro state you see details down to 1mm. You slide it over the suspect area and confirm exactly which capacitor or IC heats up. Then you decide your next move, whether that means IC change karna or lifting the shorted part. You also hold the tool steady over one spot and compare how fast different components warm up, which tells you a lot about which part carries the fault.Multimeter Functions Without Switching Tools Once the thermal view marks the suspect, you stay on the same tool and measure. The multimeter reads true RMS values, AC and DC voltage, AC and DC current, resistance, capacitance, frequency and temperature. Smart auto-ranging also covers diode and continuity checks, so you never set ranges by hand. You test a capacitor, check a diode on a charging line, or beep out a track in seconds. Your jumper lagana work gets easier too, because continuity mode confirms a broken track before you solder the jumper wire. You finish the diagnosis, the measurement and the confirmation on one device.Where It Fits on Your Repair Bench The body measures 134×64×28mm, so it sits next to your hot air station and soldering station without eating bench space. The 2.8-inch 240×320 display shows the thermal image and readings clearly, and the interface runs in Chinese, English and German. A removable 18650 lithium battery powers the unit, and Type-C charging lets you recharge it from the same adapters you use for phones. When the cell ages, you swap it instead of replacing the tool. Use the Sunshine TB-10 Thermal Multimeter at the diagnostics stage, before you reach for the soldering iron or the hot air gun. After your IC change or reballing job, run it again to confirm the board no longer heats abnormally. Pair it with a microscope and a PCB holder for a complete fault-finding setup, and browse our Multimeters category for related testers. If your work needs a larger thermal sensor later, the Sunshine TB-10 Pro is the upgrade path, with a 256×192 sensor.
