Standard microwave, add a IR camera, display this on the front, possibly allowing for toggleing between IR and standard view.

       Needed AND I gave it a bun.

       Awesome. Should bring about another step-change in the commonality and prevalence of thermographic equipment, bringing about another step-reduction in price.   

       I want (a) thermographic gadget(s), I just don't wanna pay $2.5k + for shitty ones and $10k+ for good ones.

       Presumably, though, the simpler (i.e. cheaper) cameras would be better than nothing. You're most interested in temperatures above room temperature, so you won't need fancy cooling and so forth.

       baaaah, why bother unengineering a perfectly well- engineered engineering solution? Peltiers are cheap.... and you can route the exhaust into the microwave interior for a bit of extra heating oomph.
