Hit Horta up. He's probably got a dozen laying around gathering dust in his closet.I wanna know about the previously mentioned cooled thermal. It’s time for someone to bring a civvy MWIR to market.
The voodoo-M is available with a rangefinder right now (not sure which designation it gets). It’s approximately 9k more than the Voodoo-ML

Stands for recon. I’m sure someone on here knows more.
How do you like the S? I’ll be getting one to demo next Saturday. It’ll be the first clip on I’ve been behind.

So far I love it! Most versatile thermal out there IMO.
Sorry to necro post, but I’d like to point out that @wigwamitus must consume so much Spice Melange to have such prescience:
Somebody got one, dogtown showed some pics of one in action ....
Both the Trijicon (formerly IR&D) thermals with the BAE cores ... and the N-Vision thermals with the BAE cores ... are GREAT. The best commercial stuff we can buy and have been for eons.
My main problem with the REAPs (and Patrols) has been zeroing with the joystick. The issue historically for me was I would "bump" the joystick and sometimes get 3 clicks and other times get 1 click and there was no way to tell which. Subsequent models addressed this by adding click numbers to the display. That's way better because now at least you know where you are. But It still takes me longer to zero with the joystick than with turrets or buttons.
Other than that the REAPs are fine as is the rough equivalent, the N-Vision Nox-35. The N-vision model does have more magnification (less FOV) - so that matters depending on your uses cases. N35 also has manual focus, if that matters.
How much did those end up going for? I want to see how the older HISS LRT stacks up to the the UTC xii, ELR MK2, ect. Only cooled unit I have time behind is the INOD. Goal is a 1500yd shot on a deer this summer.
I always wonder about Will’s. They often have interesting stuff, but prices can vary wildly from “that sounds about right” to “hahahaha”
I haven’t used it in forever. I feel like 9x was around where you got a full screen.
up to 27x my max scope power there was no image degradation. Crazy
You can see targets that are roughly the same temperature as the background (LWIR struggles with that)
You can often see residual heat from impacts on steel…
…or paper
You can see bullets in flight and trace
The XLR in particular has a very narrow FOV for shooting very far (that building is just over a mile away).
The demag is about 12-15x. I can comfortably zoom into the display optically to 25-30x and the display is also capable of continuous digital zoom to 4x.
If I were a billionaire, I wouldn’t have the time to meddle with politics, since I would spend all my time at the range and hunting, with the latest and greatest in cool-guy-gear.
But I guess that reason is why I’ll never be a billionaire - blowing off all my money on gear keeps me poor …
