    Night Vision Which FLIR would you buy?

    The FLIR RS64-35mm is the best overall thermal weapon scope for 98% of day or night thermal hunts, the RS35-35mm has about the same range and is cheaper but also has 1/2 the field of view, at night when hunting dangerous animals maximum field of view is your friend. Read the FLIR RS thermal...

    Night Vision FLIR T-50 Initial Set-Up

    Got out of the UTV without my rifle and went for a walk. No sooner do I get a 100 yards that I see a large sounder group in thick woods to my right. All I had was the SIG .357 with 124 grain Hornaday reloads and there were six large sows over 325 pounds, so I took out this small hog with the...

    Night Vision LWTS goodie

    Video cables and darkness don't jive, especially when intense hunting activity is going down..... I had a pack of six coyotes charge me to Bay Bee Cottontail on my FoxPro Prairie Blaster after I had carefully setup the entire video recording process when I first saw them all approaching from...

    The SPI DVR is a real good reliable unit and the only waterproof one that I know of, I have four of them. The UNV MDVR is also a nice easy to use compact unit with excellent cables that I have been trying out lately, it has a nice remote switch to instantly record and not waste battery power in...

    Not to be a downer, TestNDoc, but that cable is really going to be a hassle to use at night. If there is some way you can possibly get a 90 degree junction for it where it enters the instrument to keep it from sticking out to the side so much? On my older FLIR T-50 the cable sticks out the...
