Guide TD210 Thermal

[76thirty]

Just come across these on a few websites, never heard of the brand and assuming they are relatively new.

Quite like the look of the unit as it’s fairly compact, anyone bought one or tried them yet?

Strong points, being the cost and the fact they have a replaceable 18650 battery system .

Had one a couple of months now and it is OK. Picks up rabbits out to 100 odd yards which is all I use it for, image quality isn't great and is does need a minute or so to warm up so I tend to leave mine on rather than in standby. Pallets seem gimmicky, focusing is slow, If I was buying again I would probably go for a better second hand unit to be honest

There are more models in TD series, with different sensors and lens sizes.
TD410, TD420 and TD430. All of them feature 400x300 12micron sensor, compact size and 18650 battery. Lens sizes differ from 19mm, 25mm and 35mm f1.0 lenses.

If price of those will be lower than Pulsar XM and XQ Axions, than maybe they will sell good.
Othervise I don't see, how someone would choose one of those instead of Axion.

Guide is not a new brand.
The first thermal imager I ever bought was a Guide and that was in 2012
They are a very well respected company who make good reliable thermal imagers
Perhaps not cutting edge, but perfectly usable and generally good value for money

Cheers

I like the look of them, I presumed they were new only because I’ve never personally noticed them
