    Night Vision Flir boat thermal on vehicle ?

    I plan on mounting a pic rail to the top of this and putting my Yoter on it, then wifi link to a tablet velcroed to the dash https://a.co/d/dOdPz1w

    Night Vision EOTECH CLIP ON THERMALS ( Full details)

    Ditto. I bet mine ran 6+ hours with 30 startups over the course of a few weeks on the set that came with it. I never took them out during that period. I forgot I had shut it off for the night when the red "low batt" warning came on and the next time out it ran another half hour before the...

    Night Vision Clip-ELR collimation

    Was able to spend some more time at the range this morning. First thing I did was check my 100yd zero and chronograph. I adjusted my Kestrel by 30fps. That fixed my previous dope issue at 700yds. Then I shot back to back groups at 100, 400, and 700 yds each. I still need to tweak my 400yd...

    Night Vision Night Ops

    It was a good night for thermals here also. There were a bunch of skunks out back and I was able to quickly PID them with the ELR out to 400+yds. I killed several in the 200yd range and missed one at 370yds. I find myself going back to the default brightness and contrast settings everytime I...

    Night Vision EOTECH CLIP ON THERMALS ( Full details)

    Ya, that LR pic was a bad example. Try these two. Why does there appear to be as many pixels per Mil on the reticle with the MR as there are on the ELR? With a wider FOV spread out on the same pixel count, there should be fewer per MIL for the MR. The more I look at it, maybe those vertical...

    Night Vision Clip-ELR collimation

    What adjustments, if any, do you make to compensate for it?

    Night Vision EOTECH CLIP ON THERMALS ( Full details)

    Speaking of image and pixelation, did anybody else zoom in tight and notice the difference between the pixel spacing of the LR and the xELR in the images I posted in the other thread? Way back in this thread there was conversation about how much of the 1280 screens were being utilized. I don't...

    Night Vision Clip-ELR collimation

    I wonder how the stepped design of these effects things? When I lock my rifle down and introduce the thermal, it raises the crosshairs about an inch on the target, which is roughly equal to to amount of the offset between the front and rear lenses. My grouping with the thermal on is about an...

    Night Vision Night Ops

    Yes, there was a period of time where I did think the SY-Cii was picking up more detail. It was after the wind switched and it felt like a little humidity was in the air. Keep in mind that all of the Eotechs were in base mode with default brightness and contrast settings. The Yoter only offers...

    Night Vision Night Ops

    Pictures inbound. I will apologize because these are not jaw dropping impressive. They aren't meant to be... Any thermal pic looks good from 37yds away, but I wanted to push the limits. I'm not sure what the "test subject", AKA Wig, was wearing, but it did a good job of masking his heat...

    Night Vision EOTECH CLIP ON THERMALS ( Full details)

    I posted some pics over on Wigs thread earlier if you haven't seen them yet. Coming from 8-12 deg FOV units, the FOV on the ELR is small. I'm definitely going to have trouble finding closer animals and scanning. Inside of 3-400yds, I think the LR will do everything you need it to.

    Night Vision EOTECH CLIP ON THERMALS ( Full details)

    I've got back to back pics through the MR, LR, ELR and SY-Cii on various magnifications at 400 and 800yds. I just need to get them downloaded and sorted out.

    Night Vision Night Ops

    It took me 27 seconds to find an ELR and put it on a rifle, and another 3 seconds to power it on. I was able to find you immediately on the first sweep after all that....lol

    Night Vision Night Ops

    First, I want to than Wig and Cantankerous for the amazing opportunity. Trying to look through so much equipment in a short time was a little bit hectic, but I had a blast! I used my Triggercam to take some pics for the sake of simplicity, vs trying to focus a camera behind a scope for each...

    Night Vision Eotech ELR and Bering SY-Cii photos.

    Let me post the 700yd pics. The difference seems less noticable for some reason. This is an 18" plate and the 50%IPSC
