Same thing happened to me. In a treestand when the absolute bottom fell out. I stayed until it stopped raining hard enough to keep me from seeing 20 yards. It hiccupped for a week or three and then gave up. CT sent me another one. I also have a UNI-IR mounted at 12. I made a kydex cap for...

The button buck, I was talking about the button buck........

Nice. Hope the little feller grows up big and strong. Got an idea of distance when you zoomed in?

Second on the night cap. I've got a Team Wendy and a Night Cap (also a broke ass Ops Core- Don't waste your money) and I typically grab the night cap. Since you're using a clip on and a head mounted 14, have you tried using the 14 over your left eye? When I'm just using IR laser, I have the...

http://i1131.photobucket.com/albums/m548/ncorry/IRLightBar.jpg Pic through a PVS 14 testing out a prototype 10" 950nm IR light bar. I've got the gain as low as it would go. Tree is about 15 yards. Way too bright for anything less than 100 yards. Trying to convince them to move to a 2 or...

I noticed that the hog kind of had a halo or aura around him. Is that a normal occurrence with your thermal?

In October 2012, my first OpsCore Fast Base helmet broke while using a single PVS14 with a standard legacy USGI Rhino mount. I contacted Ops Core and they had me send it in to take a look at it, and about a month and half after first contacting them, they sent me a replacement. Here are...

Rotorunner, as I recently learned, the TW helmet is VASTLY superior to the OpsCore in several ways. I've had 2 of the Fast Base OpsCore helmets. Both of the plastic molded shrouds broke at the same place. The TW shroud is also molded in, but has a metal Wilcox insert that is not only...

You're getting real close to having a tailgater from R-Kansas to Austin.

What distance do you see yourself engaging dogs? For me, IR lasers, even with a 3x USGI lens, ain't going to get it done at over 200 yards.

Output? Can't find any specs on the webs. Size is right.

Both is the winner. On helmet, I went with a StreamLight Sidewinder Compact- can't say enough good things about it- about $60. On the other side of hte helmet for longer distances, I mounted an old ATN 450 that is adjustable for spot/flood and power/ output. About $100 on eBay. Yes, it is...

I got one of the iPhone adapters from Delta, and it is a solid SOB. The iPhone and the PVS14 will break long before this thing. Other than the nut that snugs onto the threads in the eye cup, it's one piece of milled AL. Don't know who you had do these for you, but they've got some machining...

Working on it, working on it. Old habits are hard to break (for my hunting partner).

TEXASLAWMAN, I just wanted to pass a thank you along for the video and let you know that it taught a buddy of mine some things. I forwarded the video link from youtube to my NV hunting partner. He watched it and Monday night went out solo and got lucky. Once he found the sounder, he took his...

The 850 nm 30mm filter is sandwiched between two aluminum rings when you take it out of hte package. You can unscrew the rings and will have the filter material left. I can't remember if I removed the TLR's lens and replaced it with the filter or if I put the filter behind the lens, but I do...

This is the exact one I got, but the one Delta linked to would work too. 30mm 30 mm Infrared Infra Red IR Filter 850nm 850 New | eBay

Those 720nm filters never come off mine. They also dim 5mw red lasers and non-NV EOTech and Aimpoints enough that they won't hurt your tube. A 5mw red laser has no bloom at 10 yards and is good out to 100 with no extra IR. I also put a 850nm filter in front of my IR illuminators to kill the...

Thanks for the props. Best advice so far on this thread- I will add that whatever you do-try it before you buy it. There are several companies that rent thermal scopes now.

If you're tied to the magnification up to 12x, go with the 640 unit. I have the 2x 336 unit and it's almost perfect for my uses. Would be perfect if it was 3x. When you use the digital zoom, you are cutting the resolution in half each 2x you magnify. Take a look at your HD TV through a 3x...
