Thermal or Night Vision?

That's the # I was looking for, I said m835 gen3 earlier, it was m845.... To many #'s to remember on the fly. I knew a NV guru would get it straight!

Man! I just convinced myself I should go a couple three grand and get into hunting without lights and now I need a FLIR for another three! Talk about motivation to get off the couch and go hunting!

Well.....let's see....My truck is 11 years old.....I don't have any kids.....but I can guarantee that ditching the wife would be way more expensive than thermal.
 
I've got 2 kids 8/13... Can't think of a better way to spend my time and my $ really....except spending quality time with my kids at night huntin and blastin yotes. It's $ well spent. I've said it b4 and I'll say it again, I've traveled all around the world and I've had more fun just a couple miles from the house out hunting with my NV equipment! Oops, better edit this.. Forgot to mention the wifey

Who said I could afford it! I'm going around looking for crap to sell!

You can take a look at any of our Signature Series Scopes which are designed to allow you to use a single Gen 3 Monocular for both scanning and shooting (behind a dayscope). While having two devices would be an obvious advantage, our setups will allow you to effectively "get in the NV game" for half the cost.

Think I've posted this before but here goes again. I think its going to take a good bit of scanning practice and some luck to be able to ID my first yote with my new PS32 but I am determined. I have used mega buck thermal that you could see rabbits easily at 4-5 hundred yards. Was out tonite in the field behind my house and took a glance around and at about 80 yards noticed 7 or 8 slightly stronger glowing lumps and then one moved and then several moved and after I concentrated I could define ears and other outlines. Really had hoped for a little finer definition out of the PS32. Still waiting for my son to bring his retriever over so we can learn more about the capabilities. Have tried all the red back lighting functions on the unit and they are pretty much worthless except on the lowest setting, the plain old white is the best setting. Could I have a substandard unit?
 
You don't have a substandard unit, you just need to learn how to use it and that learning process begins when you fist use it, it will take you weeks/months of use to learn how to utilize it to its potential.
