New T-Ceptor Thermal Rifle Scopes

[CliveWard]

Hi All,

We are now in production of these and have released the info on our website:

T-Ceptor TC1 75-3 thermal rifle scope made in UK

T-Ceptor TC1 75-6 thermal rifle scope made in UK

What's most exciting about these is that we are building them in house in the UK.

In terms of how good they are...we had an independent group compare our WT1 against the latest XM50 Thermion and the WT1 was better. The T-Ceptor is again better than the WT1.

In terms of image quality and performance, the biggest difference is the core. This is now a VOx core, still shutterless but with more sensitivity at <40mK. The lens is still F1. It is a truly professional grade core. As we know the higher the sensitivity, the better the imaging is in all conditions, so in good confitions you will see far more detail and in extreme conditions you will still make imagery of targets that other scopes just wouldn't be able to see at all. The higher sensitivity also means almost zero noise in the image produced.

The core is very adjustable with auto gain compensation for foreground or background and manual gain settings. Gain and signal can be independantly adjusted as can the brightness of the OLED display. There is also adjustment for sharpness and noise reduction of you want absolutely zero noise in the image!

The display is better and now using a 1024x768 OLED which the core upscales to. When zooming in there is no real pixellation, just a softening of the image. The 1024x768 has more eye relief so a little less magnification to the display which is why base mag is quoted at 5x instead of 6x. However in the menu you can set the base mag to anything you like and in the range of 5x-8x base there is no noticeable change in image quality. It is very versatile.

In terms of software features it has 6 memory presets that act as completely independent profiles for zero, retical type colour and position and thermal core settings. The mount (and indeed a lot of the body) is the same as the Digiceptor and has been tested to 2.5mm repeatability at 100m so you can actually use it on as many rifles as you want without loosing zero.

The mount is designed to fit a bolt action rifle, so no extra mounts or extended rails are needed. The mount is also adjustable so that the reticule can be centred when zeroing. I've done two now and managed to get both rifles zeroed with an X: co-ordinate of 0! The others have been within 5-10 clicks.

It has several reticule patterns and one of these is presented as a virtual FFP reticule that gows as you zoom and can be set to a mil-hash type for ranging and hold over.

The reticule can be either white or black or set to automaticly change polarity depending on the target (this is how I use mine).

The scope has a mechanical power switch so start up is near instant under 3 seconds. On board power is via 2xCR123 for 5 hours run time and we also do an external battery pack / DVR combo that fits to the side of the scope to bring that up to 16 hours. Batteries in the external pack are 18650 and field re-placeable too.

Cheers
