Thermal monocular

[No i deer]

I thinking I need one..

I was sat out last night til dark waiting for a fox or 2 to show and found my eyes straining constantly looking through my EL's..

I was thinking a thermal would be ideal as the light is fading..

I'm not familiar at all with any type of night vision or thermal imaging.. 

I don't wanna spend much on one..

What make and model would you recommend so I know where to start looking..

Cheers NID

I've used a Pulsar xm30 axion key model for a few years and found it more than adequate for my needs

They come up used around £650 Mark and new around 950-1k on sale

Trust me ... You want a 640 sensor , See if there is a second hand Pulsar Helion or if you want a new one then look at the Hik Falcon ..... If you don't then never look through one as there's no going back 😄

Depending on how much you are looking to spend on a thermal monocular. I got the AGM TC19-256 that I could mount to my rifle, but I mainly use it as a monocular while hunting.

Just bought a s/h pulsar helion 2, game changer.

Depends how much you mean by "not much", but basically you're looking at £1k for a new thermal monocular that has decent performance

Used will be cheaper, but not that much

As I'm not familiar with any of the night vision stuff £650 second hand was a shocker..

I've seen some night vision scopes that were £4000 plus but no I deer what I'm looking at..

That I'd imagine is top money for that type of scope..

Not looking for that anyway..

Don't do much night stuff these days..

I was/am a lamper when we go out.

Maybe if you ask on here there might be someone down your way that has a thermal that 

you could look through, once you start to use one , you will always have it with you, great bits of kit.

Not mine, but a low end ATN one has just gone on SD for £300

If you only want it to see there is quarry there then positively identify with NV then get a lower spec sensor as it will be cheaper

if you want to know exactly what the quarry is before you move into your rifle then spend a bit more and go for a higher spec sensor

its down to what you can afford and what your wanting from the unit
