is the thermal imager sensitive enough to find a parasitic draw? (FLIR DM284 Imaging Multimeter with IGM)

Only if the current flow creates enough heat to catch. I will get more info and post it here.

The Flir DMM unit "is sensitive enough to see large draw of more than a few amps but it will not see fuses or small parasitic draws or less than that. So if they are looking at a car that maybe goes dead over night they probably won't see it at the fuse. However they might be able to see a module or component drawing the power depending on how well insulated it is."
