Suggested pouch for thermal monocular?

Why on earth do you need a pouch. It should either be in you hand or hanging down off a neck strap. Fortunately my XQ38 has two attachment points so use a Pulsar neck strap which in my case is all but worn out.
On a Helion use a ID badge lanyard.
Should I ever need to stow my thermal then I tuck it inside my jacket.

I think with the pouches available for bino rigs it would be nice to have a similar item dedicated for thermals, the issue is all the differing sizes and shapes and a generic case would be hard to mass produce.

I'd rather have my thermal protected when not in use or swinging around my neck and flattering into a slung rifle perhaps but yes a pocket or inside the jacket does suffice. It's just about giving people options.

My Pulsar XG35 has 2 attachment points but the rear point is so unusable for anything other than a thin bit of paracord or bungee which is a shame, I'd like to put a small split ring on it but that's never going to fit.

Might not be what you're after but,most thermals have a thread at the base to attach to a tripod.You can get a camera ring thread/ loop and attach to this,very secure.

 
Realise it’s chest mounted but I have found a large magazine pouch works well with the condor. I’ve also attached it to the bino harness so I don’t lose it

I have a similar set up to the one above. I like it much better than the lanyard I used to have. I had pockets that came along with my bino case but they were a few mm too small. I bought some molle ones on Amazon; perfect.

I have one of these, Conterra Adjusta-Pro Radio Chest HarnessDefault Title
But didn’t pay that amount for it.


I also have something like this, Tactical bottle holder military drinking bottle pouch Molle 2.5L additional bag | eBay

I have various bags that I carry, ie an Ogdens roe sack for deer stalking or a molle harness rig for foxing.
I am left handed so the pouch sits up on the right side strap so I can tuck it away safely if I am yomping across the ground or I want to keep my hands free.
I have elastic cord attached to my turd shaped spotter and I can either clip it to the pouch or it goes over my head and the spotter can’t fall. Very important to keep the lanyard short enough so you can drop it to take a shot, and it doesn’t hit anything and make a clanging sound, think highseat.
And it also wants to be short enough so you can easily grab it with your hand when it is hanging loose and not have it down by your knees.
