I made some first videos. This forest was absolutely crammed with wild boar. Winter, mild mist, -2 to 4C:



I've been using it for a while for test & review and made a short video with some still photos, most mounted on my Browning BAR Match and S&B 1.5-8x42 mm STRATOS, gives you a feel what it looks like and how it can be mounted.



Hit or miss? What do you think?

Price?

If I had limited options, and the price is right, I'd probably give it a go.

Did Pulsar come out with something cheaper, because noone was buying the Krypton ?
Then they add another propitary battery to the list and don't even offer any of these units to the States.
Pulsar is feast or famine.

I've had a pre-prod Proton for several months. Tried it on several rifles and scopes and can't really see any shifts in POI.

In Europe about €2600.

There are "lots of" Kryptons in Europe, but it's not released in the US to my knowledge.

I guess it's quite common for companies to offer a flagship model and then release more options. I don't think that's a Pulsar first.
That battery is used in all of the Axions I think.
