    Night Vision Thermal performance weather conditions affect

    Scale max was 460lbs and it broke when I raised him up on it, crappy scale but heavy hog!

    Here is a generalized diurnal thermal emissivity chart, but you are going to have to get out there and experience it for yourself so you can learn it yourself:

    I don't think ADUNS uses a vanadium oxide uncooled micro bolometer either, slightly different wavelengths. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk[emoji102]

    Night Vision FLIR T-50 Initial Set-Up

    Managed to nail two nice boars tonight using the T-75 at 175 yards with the SIG 716 .308: I think I have enough experience and material to write up a stand alone review on this instrument now. It is a serious long range thermal clip-on scope or stand alone scope with internal digital 5.56mm...

    I hate it when that happens, then it is even difficult to differentiate the horizon from the sky, making it a puzzle to find out where the ground actually is...

    We hunted for two days in the middle of a tropical storm wit 50mph winds, torrential rains, and summer heat, no one killed anything besides me with my FLIRs, NV was useless... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk[emoji102]

    Night Vision Thermal performance weather conditions affect

    I think allot of it has to do with whether or not the sun actually made it out during the day to warm things up, if not everything is monothermal surface wise, except of course for a hog or a coyote...which often makes them stand out even more, although range will be limited.

    Night Vision FLIR T75 Advanced Combat Thermal Sight-Long Range Has Finally Arrived!

    That LDI DBAL A3H is a restricted laser IIIb, it would be worthless for any type of night hunting anyhow, you are much better off with a civilian legal 0.7mW IR laser, in fact even better is to install an LDI Neutral Density Filter over the IR laser to lower it down to about 0.1mW for pinpoint...

    Night Vision FLIR T75 Advanced Combat Thermal Sight-Long Range Has Finally Arrived!

    In order to have the entire T-75 thermal optic with the digital icons present, you need to keep it at 4X or below. With your 6X ACOG you will not be able to see any of the icons, however it will still work just great. The mount height of the ACOG will match the T-75 perfectly. My ACOGs are the...

    Night Vision FLIR T75 Advanced Combat Thermal Sight-Long Range Has Finally Arrived!

    I am using the 1.5-6X-42mm Elcan on my 7.62mms.....it is a great optic, especially with the T-75 as you can get a WFOV using the lower magnification of the Elcan.

    T-60 will handle 6-8x, I use mine in front of an ACOG or ELCAN, Flir canned the T-76 project. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk[emoji102]

    Night Vision FLIR T75 Advanced Combat Thermal Sight-Long Range Has Finally Arrived!

    You can certainly use it as a standalone thermal scope at 1X, 2X, or 4X digital magnification with either the 5.56mm NATO or 7.62mm NATO digital BDC reticules in it, but like you said you'd be looking at a squared off microbolometer image through the T-75 ocular as you would on other thermal...

    Night Vision FLIR T-50 Initial Set-Up

    As an example of just how powerful the FLIR T-75 long range thermal scope is, here is a video from it of a bunny at 225 yards in the pouring rain on a HOT summer night: http://www.phossil.com/thom/Night%20Vision/FLIR%20T75/Bunny/Bunny.mp4 And I am watching this thermal video through the Elcan...
