    Night Vision EOTECH CLIP ON THERMALS ( Full details)

    The most important spec that I look for when comparing the thermal units side by side is Field of View (in degrees). Once you see it’s a 640x unit with frame rate of 50-60 and NETD under 40-50, it’s probably going to be a decent sensor. Then it’s all about the interplay between objective lens...

    Leica Calonox Site…When is the damn 640x480 thermal sensor coming??

    For a comparison, it appears to have the exact same optical dimensions as the Hogster-C, a 9deg horizontal field of view with 388px. Even the screen resolution and refresh rate is a match. I wouldn’t be surprised if these just had a Leica shell wrapped around them… I’d look up reviews of the...

    Night Vision Pixels on Target Voodoo-S “Official” Horta Review and Other Stuff Thread

    Always happy to receive surprise packages from the FedEx man in exchange for photos. Maybe I can snag some of those ClipIRs before too long…

    Night Vision Pixels on Target Voodoo-S “Official” Horta Review and Other Stuff Thread

    First range test under our belt, and I'm very impressed with some things and a little more grounded in my expectations for these units. Brought a handful of rifles out, and did a shooting test with a mk12-style AR with the 2.5-10x42 NF and a buddy's set up similarly but with the 4.5-14x50 mk4...

    Night Vision EOTECH CLIP ON THERMALS ( Full details)

    Are those FoVs horizontal or diagonal? If I'm reading it correctly, it sounds like the xELR has to be zoomed out to 0.5x to have correct 1x unity view for day scopes?

    Somewhat relevant patent on the i2 side for those interested in the cutaways and related patents at the bottom - https://patents.google.com/patent/US7359114B2/ Another cool one, where Photonis wanted to pull the collimating prism out into its own device that threads on -...

    Does a hand guard that is not perfectly parallel to where the zeroed scope is pointing count as “error”? As soon as you adjust windage or elevation on a day scope, it’s going out of parallel.

    That’s about the same that I did with the VooDooS. Cranked zoom all the way up and dialed diopter until pixels were sharp. Ended up lining up perfectly with the zero mark printed on the diopter 👌

    Interesting. So those high dollar thermal mil clipons don’t actually have prisms in them? I’d assume that means if they’re not mounted perfectly parallel with the scope there’d be shift and it wouldn’t be as straightforward as not changing the zero on any gun you swap them to. Or are you saying...

    That’s where I’m seeing the VooDooS fitting. On a 1-10 it fills the scope at 2x and looks great up to 4x or so of optical mag. Sure you can spot stuff at long distance with it, but the field of view and display resolution seem to be optimized for closer shooting.

    Night Vision Pixels on Target Voodoo-S “Official” Horta Review and Other Stuff Thread

    Evidently the foursome didn’t appreciate the golden shower and gave the FedEx man a call. He stopped by my place this morning and brought a second Christmas. Looking forward to getting many more pics and walking through the process of using as a clip-on on both short- and long-range setups. Let...

    Night Vision Coti battery packs

    Great to hear. I’d love a solution where there were battery caps/plugs for a bunch of different devices that had a voltage step-down to 3V inside. Then just a USB-C female socket or a tail with -C male on it to run back to a battery pack. Would be great to just keep everything topped off with...

    ...or maybe the UI designers could consider a 3-4x low-end and center up their menu options in the middle of the screen.
