The Chinese knock off in that picture is a knock off of the Wilcox FTS mount for Magnifiers behind red dots/Eotech's. I have not seen a Chinese knock off of the Wilcox FTS made to be used for thermal scopes.

Same for me. My left thumb feels your pain.
Chinese copies of the SkeetIR/Oasys mount are available. These have the locking button that secures the mount in the down position and swing to the right side when mounted in front of your day optic.
Here's the version I have, it's the 'Black Left' version: https://www.ebay.com/itm/274043930463?var=574099917842
Excellent. Much appreciated. Will have to try these out. Thanks
Will probably try this out as well. Cheers

The clone KVC/OSS shoe set works great. I would presume the K clip situation is the same.
Hard anodizing now looks as it should.
There will be a pre-order starting soon. I invite everyone who is interested to join the email list at jv-innovations.com

What is the height for cowitness with that dovetail in front of a LPVO on the Wilcox mount ? The ADM kit needs about 1.62in but works ok with 1.57 and 1.50
With a Wilcox SkeetIR flip mount, you end up at 1.61". It's a compromise for users of both 1.54" and 1.70" optics mounts.
Don’t know about the V2, but snagged a pFalcon (RH25 without US branding) and it is a noticeable improvement in thermal performance and image quality over the original RH25, at a $1,000+ cost savings.
Only difference is black vs brown, otherwise menus look the same. $4K or less delivered brand new. Very pleased.
Looking forward to V2 though. iRay is killing it.

I’ll be buying one next week pFalcon as well. I’m currently bridging a WP PVS14 with a Hikmicro 384 thermal scanner on a chink KVC OSS and it actually works not too bad even tho it’s not a true 1x.
Can’t wait to get a proper 640 core and 1x. I also have a set of 50deg boomslang lense on the way for the 14. If I’m running a mono, might as well get some extra FOV
Did any one mill down their ADM mount to fit the Wilcox FTS shoe ?
Where’d you source the PFalcon? It appears Cold Harbour Supply has a higher price and I even thought not too long ago said they can’t sell the PFalcon to the US anymore.
What's the general consensus for right eye dominant shooters for how to set up dual band ? Do most people run the PVS14 right eye and RH25 left ? Seems like a lot of people were forced into left eye PVS14 because of the battery compartment but with the OSS shoe it seems like it wouldn't be a problem.
I don't really care that much about passive aiming since I have a Bolt TH50v2 and also a FP IR laser.

JW is the proverbial renagade with a dremel in one hand and an outlaw PFalcon in the other hand. 
Perfecto.
I'm curious about this as well. This or the RH25 is my next purchase, and my first foray into thermal.
Is he a Nigerian prince? Thanks for the info, I may be sticking with the RH25 and a Hide vendor then..
Nah apparently he's some kind of dealer, probably just grey imports from Canada since CHS don't export anymore.
I mean, if you're not afraid of the all inclusive diet at the club fed, I know plenty of Canadians that would happily trade their Pfalcon for a 3000 FOM filmless WP IIT
If it’s the same guy I know of, he had a recent post about Iray giving pushback on what he’s been doing because people realize the markup on them so he currently isn’t having any orders until further notice. That’s not a direct quote, it’s been a few days since I read it but that was a recent update. Then there’s also a Tanve guy on there that is ignoring someone who had issues with their purchase so I’d avoid him.Nah apparently he's some kind of dealer, probably just grey imports from Canada since CHS don't export anymore.

That make sense. Even in the old days of the first Gen MH25 you could do a 10-20 unit group buy and buy direct from China at an incredible price. I was quoted 10K for 5 units back in early 2020 but like a retard, I passed on it
Does anyone have a “through the optic” view of an Elcan 1/4x on 1x with the RH25? It looks phenomenal in front of my 1X microprism, but I don’t exactly want to by an Elcan on a whim just to find out the 1X is unusable with the RH25 in front of it.
Sadly, the Elcan at 1x sucks behind a clipon. Fine at 4x.
Nothing TTL, but from the outside…
How is it through the ACOG ?
I’ve heard good and bad. I have a TA33 + RMR piggy back, love the RMR for passive aiming but would be nice to be able to get a clear thermal picture through the RH25
At 4x, the image undergoes heavy degrading. I'll find some pictures on my old phone and post them here.
It’s not bad or overly pixelated at 4x (whether fixed or variable, don’t make no diff’rinse). It just loses 75% of it’s FOV, but still very usable.
Much beyond 4x and it falls apart quickly. 6x is tops/max before you’re just magnifying pixels.

What is the firmware number you have on yours? I had to send mine back after ALOT of use (hundreds of hours since it first released) for some buttons coming loose, and firmware updates ect. I ended up with a brand new unit that smokes the original I had.
The FPGA: 0117 firmware is fantastic. I don't know if anything else was updated, but it's like it got a new GPU/CPU or they overclocked the piss out of the hardware inside.
For clarity, is your unit a PFalcon or the American tan version RH 25.
Can confirm FPGA: 0117 on the PFalcon is fantastico. Appears to be a legitimate upgrade from the first round of them a few years ago.
Upgrade as in, image quality improved as well? Or just the overall functionality of the unit as a whole? Or maybe both?
RH25 American/Tan model.
What Jwramp said, it legit appears to be a wild upgrade. I went from this is amazing for what it is to holy shit I can see all the studs in my walls, the shed three houses down, and picks up everything ALOT better. Only downside I've seen is you have to adjust more for temps/humidity vs being able to leave it alone because its sensitive as hell now. That said I'm in FL/ lower AL and going from hill tops down into swamp bottoms effects the newer unit more. But its so easy to adjust on the fly it doesn't matter much to me at all, I'll take the performance ALL NIGHT over the previous "version".
The Easter Bunny brought some good news:
progress on my rail was delayed recently because the previous design would position the RH25 further away from your eye when helmet mounting.
The new design solves that issue while still allowing all the previous weapon mounting solutions (Wilcox FTS and Picatinny QD).
As you can see in the attached photos, the RH25 is now perfectly aligned with a PVS-14 in a Noisefighters Panobridge and also in a KVC/RQE bridge when using the KVC Obverse Shoe Set.
We will start production of this version in the next few weeks. I'll keep you updated along the way.

Great work!
Have you tried RH with the PVS14 OSS shoe and left hand with the RH25 in the KVC ?
Fore/aft alignment will obviously be the same. The primary issue with the RH25 in front of the left eye is the wide side of the RH25 body will limit how close you can adjust the two devices together. Depending on how far your eyes are apart, you may be able to set it up correctly without having the RH25 and PVS-14 bodies touching.
If you need them closer together, you would need that crazy iRay Obverse Micro Helmet Shoe that positions the RH25 right side up. That way the wide side of the RH25 body is sticking out to the left side.

You guys are making me want to get an RH25 again. Sold my last one for an Nvision Nox 35. Love my Nox but I also really liked the RH25 for its compact size as a scanner for coyote hunting. Hmm…
Anybody know where the 0117 “IMG” firmware file can be downloaded?
I have the pfalcon640 intl version.
