Foxing thermal scope to 200yds

[samdk]

Been using the pulsar range and have since changed to the T ceptor pro 55-3 spot on imo

How does it fair in poor conditions?
I have an axion xq38 LRF spotter and on some night it’s unusable!

i've been using pulsar range for last 4 or 5 years they are very good but all the ones i've had i had to send to JT as they all developed a fault.
in the last year i've sent 4 off to TJ. so im abit P****off with pulsar. so i went for a RL42 and T ceptor pro 55-3 and im will pleased i did

What’s your verdict side by side ?

Hi Sam,

Hopefully this helps...

I've been out with the T-Ceptor PRO on the rifle and a Pard SA35 as a spotter, (which is already pretty impressive in poor conditions) on a true 5m visibility foggy night, and that's with an amber torch.

The Pard was essentially a grey screen, wherever I looked. I could just about detect a 'blob' of heat with it. The comparative view through the T-Ceptor was I could see enough of the crop field out to 80 yards or so to orientate myself and then several Rabbits on the headland, around 100 yards and a further one at around 150 yards. The rabbits were perfectly defined...not blobs. The Pard could only detect the biggest and least obscured rabbit. The rest only had heads and shoulders visible which the Pard couldn't detect in those conditions.

In addition to being very sensitive, the T-Ceptor PRO algorithm will discount false signal caused by diffraction of heat through obscurants such as moisture and smoke in the air, so you get sharp targets, not fuzzy blobs.

On another occasion I needed to double check zero one night after cleaning the rifle and the only location was a dip in the field that had gathered ground mist. The target was my usual black diamond printed on white paper, with a 20mm adhesive square of aluminium foil in the centre as the aim point, angled so that the target faced the sky behind me.

With the Pard, the target was completely invisible. With the T-Ceptor I could discern the difference between black and white on the paper, and very easily the aluminium foil. It was essentially not a lot of difference from using that same targetry in clear conditions during the day.


Cheers

Thanks Clive,
Do you have a number I can call to discus a few things?
