Not a bad price a decent warrantee.

It's night vision and thermal with a laser range finder.

I know most things that try to do it all seldom do.

I don't know much about thermal scopes but that is definately a good price. If it has good reviews and return policy I think it would be a great deal.

I have a buddy that has one but his is just a scope. He has showed me videos of looking through it at night and it's amazing. You could see mice through it. He told me the brand name and I looked it up and found out how expensive they are. That's pretty much when I quit looking.

It was cool, but I don't hunt at night.

Everything I find is good reviews.

You can use it in day light.

It's also night vision with a range finder.

I hunt 'otes at night with red spotlight. difficult. but legal.

I've hunted leopard and red stag with night vision. lots of value can be good for early morning when woods/trees are still cold. then mammals like bear/elk.etc stick out easily. Once sun is coming up they lose value, everything glows.

To many combines in one device always means disaster for me.

I think if it is something you would use on a regular basis it would be worth a try.

I've been considering a night vision monocular. Simple and usable.

Hey Bear,

I've seen people hunting coyotes at night with red spot lights. Is there something about the red that doesn't scare them away?

Yes red doesn't blind animals. also humans, one uses a red light in a photo dark room.

That's interesting. I've seen tv shows where they use red lights at night but didn't know how it worked.
