I think you could pull some of the videos that people first initially posted, then compare to some of the videos (yathermalboi on YouTube) that John put up shortly after. His settings were manually tweaked but supposedly that is where Armasight had targeted the tweaks.
@SkyScrapin
Yeah but, JStokes (yathermalboi on Youtube) was not using a Sidekick that has a 2 point calibration nor the new updated software per my understanding when he made those videos. I might be wrong but pretty sure that was not an updated unit.
Just run down to the Border over into Mexico for a day and come right back and tell Buck Fidens lackeys you are seeking asylum from Timbuktu and they will give you north of $5,000 a month and you can use that as your Thermal Buying Spree money and stack all you want up.
Unfortunately, that is the number I have heard from several places. Plus other things being given to them, like entire hotels rented out for them to stay etc.
I purchased my 640 from SOK but didn't get a notification.
Just email support and tell em you need to RMA, they will ask you for the serial number and such and send you a shipping label to print out.
My kid peeled the damn serial number sticker off my unit. I hope it doesn't become a problem sending it in for the upgrade.
Might wanna send the Kiddo in for an upgrade too.
I still have the original box with the serial number on it, what are the chances I'm screwed here?Might wanna send the Kiddo in for an upgrade too.
Sorry, just could not help it. Things been boring round here in Horta's absence. Just trying to keep up in his tradition.
Well, being they are brand new units that are for sure under warranty and also Armasight is doing an upgrade I would say you will probably be ok. Just tell them what happened and all should be good I would think.
what's the verdict on the improvements?
Dunno yet, whatta you think.
Looks pretty good to me.
So as I decipher that. We got a nice TURBO CHARGER and a SUPER CHARGER is coming down the road.
Skeet & Voodoo, hold my beer please, while I order another Sidekick.
Absolutely.
Armasight was a great solid and innovative company back in the day so to speak.
lol I’ve held my tongue while waiting for the fixes… when I buy a “60fps” thermal and it’s clearly only showing me 38fps at the eyepiece when checked with high speed video… I get grumpy facedJW my Snowflake sensitive side has been triggered. Might have to retreat to my safeplace.
Lets call it upgraded instead of repaired.
Luckily we have guys like you to point this stuff out because it's my first thermal and I have no idea how to tell what fps it's actually running at, ha.lol I’ve held my tongue while waiting for the fixes… when I buy a “60fps” thermal and it’s clearly only showing me 38fps at the eyepiece when checked with high speed video… I get grumpy faced
But the guys at Armasight have been pretty receptive to the long list of feedback items I sent over, thanks to the collaboration I received from SOK, so I had no reason to put them on blast while things were playing out.
Looking forward to seeing how the updates worked out tomorrow night.
Congrats on ur first "Crack Pipe". Likely many more to come.

You can always check into Rehab like this guy did.
Dammit man, that was some quick turnaround time for sure.
Yep, I'd definitely say she is a keeper for sure.
You are blessed. One day when I was at the office, about 6 months into us dating, I called her to see what she was up to. “I am out walking the dog with your PVS1531s.”Yep, I'd definitely say she is a keeper for sure.
Yes, that is absolutely priceless. I doubt anybody else with NODS could say the same.
speaking of walking the dog, I'm looking for a good vis/IR beacon for my dog's collar.
This is what I use. Good bright strobe. Just sewed a small pocket for the battery on the collar. Strobe is a solid Lucite block, so fairly weatherproof.
ownthenight.com Excellent work JW.
Po mans SKEET.
