Today we\u2019ll be discussing <\/span><b>thermal imaging clip-on systems<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, as you can see from the futuristic display on the table.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Thermal systems are a category of <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.optics-trade.eu\/en\/thermal-imaging.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">thermal imaging<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> devices. Their<\/span><b> structure<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is very similar to that of other <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.optics-trade.eu\/en\/night-vision-optics.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">NV devices<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. They consist of objective lens, the sensor, all the electronics and the display. The main difference is that, unlike all other thermal imaging devices, these thermal stems are <\/span><b>used as stand-alone products<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.optics-trade.eu\/en\/thermal-imaging\/thermal-imaging-clip-on-systems.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Thermal clip-ons<\/span> <\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">are intended to be <\/span><b>used on daytime optics<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. In the video, we showed how to attach a thermal imaging clip-on system to a rifle scope but you could easily use binoculars or a monocular instead. By doing so,<\/span><b> the user can convert<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> their riflescope into a night vision thermal scope and still shoot with it. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Take note that some European countries allow these combinations and some do not. That\u2019s why you must always <\/span><b>check your local legislation<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> before making a purchase.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Of course, the use of thermal devices is <\/span><b>not restricted to the nighttime<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. In fact, they do not distinguish the difference at all. So, once the thermal clip-on is added to your riflescope or binoculars, you won\u2019t have to pull it apart and back together depending on the time of day. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It\u2019s important to know that the field of view will be affected by the thermal imaging clip-on. When using a clip-on system, the user looks through the ocular into the display.If the user <\/span><b>turns up the magnification power<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> of the daytime optical device too much, the result will be<\/span><b> a pixelated display.<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Still, as long as the user doesn\u2019t enlarge the image to the maximum, they should have <\/span><b>no problems<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> using the daytime device and thermal imaging clip-on combo. The user will be able to spot warm objects and shoot &#8211; again, only if the country-specific legislation permits it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Let\u2019s move on to <\/span><b>actual brands<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> that produce these type of clip-on systems. <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.optics-trade.eu\/en\/thermal-imaging\/thermal-imaging-clip-on-systems\/shopby\/manufacturer-pulsar.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Pulsar<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is one of the popular companies that makes quite affordable products by European standards. Although Pulsar already <\/span><b>lowered the price point<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> of these systems as of 2018, expect it to be lowered again in 2 or 3 years when Chinese manufacturers enter the European market.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Indeed, there has already been <\/span><b>a surge in companies <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">that added thermal imaging clip-ons to their sales catalog. <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.optics-trade.eu\/en\/thermal-imaging\/thermal-imaging-clip-on-systems\/shopby\/manufacturer-fortuna.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Fortuna<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, for example, offers a variety of these products and of great quality to boot. Their clip-ons are really small, compact and durable. <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.optics-trade.eu\/en\/thermal-imaging\/thermal-imaging-clip-on-systems\/shopby\/manufacturer-night_pearl.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Night Pearl<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, the upscale Canadian <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.optics-trade.eu\/en\/thermal-imaging\/thermal-imaging-clip-on-systems\/shopby\/manufacturer-gsci.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">GSCI<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, Armasight, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.optics-trade.eu\/en\/thermal-imaging\/thermal-imaging-clip-on-systems\/shopby\/manufacturer-dipol.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dipol<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, and Lithuanian <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.optics-trade.eu\/en\/thermal-imaging\/thermal-imaging-clip-on-systems\/shopby\/manufacturer-ados_tech.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ados Tech<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> are just some of the competitors. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Many customers are interested in the <\/span><b>difference between thermal imaging clip-ons and the classic analog night vision clip-ons<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. In all honesty, the dilemma between buying one or the other is quite difficult. Therefore we will do our best to point out the differences between the two and hopefully make the customer\u2019s choice at least more informed, if not easier.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The clear advantage of thermal imaging clip-on systems is in their <\/span><b>detection range<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> that is <\/span><b>far superior<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to that of classic analog NV clip-ons. With the latter, even high quality devices won\u2019t be able to perform beyond their maximum range of <\/span><b>250 metres<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Now, take <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.optics-trade.eu\/en\/thermal-imaging\/thermal-imaging-clip-on-systems\/pulsar-thermal-front-attachment-core-fxq50.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Pulsar Thermal Front Attachment Core FXQ50<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> for example. The user will be able to detect an animal at 1500 or <\/span><b>1800 metres.<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The second crucial difference is <\/span><b>important for shooters<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. With a thermal imaging clip-on, the user will be able to see <\/span><b>what happens immediately after taking the shot<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Let\u2019s say that the animal runs into the forest. The hunter will be able to follow what\u2019s going on without having to switch between two optical devices and losing track of the action. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Another advantage of most clip-on devices &#8211; either thermal or analog &#8211; is that when used on their own, they serve as a monocular. When buying clip-on products, <\/span><b>the ocular part<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> needed for the <\/span><b>stand-alone use<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is almost always provided in the box.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Thermal imaging clip-ons <\/span><b>do not age with time<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> but that\u2019s not true for analog NV devices. Some image intensifying tubes have a limited amount of operating hours and will start to fade once that limit is reached. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With newer thermal devices, the user will be able to <\/span><b>take photos and film videos<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Some might even allow for direct live-streaming. That is not possible with analog NV optics. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Thermal imaging clip-ons also fare better under <\/span><b>weather conditions<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> where there is <\/span><b>mist <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">involved. With <\/span><b>fog<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, some performance quality will be lost but compare that to analog NV devices that would be rendered completely useless under the same circumstances. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Since thermal imaging devices <\/span><b>do not emit any light,<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> the game cannot spot the hunter that uses those. Analog NV devices, on the other hand, require an<\/span><b> IR illuminator<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to perform at night and can alert animals that there is a human nearby. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now, let\u2019s move on the points in favour of analog NV devices. These also show <\/span><b>the cold parts of animals<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. That\u2019s especially important for trophy hunters. Even 50-millimetre lens of thermal analog devices will require that the animal comes really close, and even then, seeing details will be rather difficult. But the <\/span><b>rendering of details <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">is not a problem for analog NV devices. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The <\/span><b>energy consumption<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is also much better with analog NV devices. The battery only has to be changed once per year. Compare that to thermal devices where the batteries have to be switched regularly with continuous use. By that we mean that the battery life runs out after 6 or 7 hours.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Analog night vision devices have <\/span><b>a wider field of view.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> So it is easier to use them than thermal imaging clip-ons. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Price-wise<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, the two product categories are very similar. The average price for both a thermal imaging clip-on system and analog NV one is 4000 euros, with some exceptions. The prices range from one model to another just as much as they do between different brands. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When <\/span><b>mounted on a riflescope<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, neither thermal imaging clip-on systems nor analog night vision ones should have much problem with <\/span><b>recoil<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. But thermal imaging clip-ons might have a slight advantage here as well and can withstand even substantial recoil. (As a point of interest, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=ZAFYT2MRE7I\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">see<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> how Fortuna tests their thermal devices.)<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As far as <\/span><b>the sensors <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">and display sizes are concerned, these are the specifications that change rapidly with the ever-evolving technology. Producers keep introducing new products at such astonishing rate and <\/span><b>the size of display pixels<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and sensors keep getting smaller. With that, the<\/span><b> image quality<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> has also improved immensely. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In <\/span><b>2018<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, the majority of thermal clip-ons have<strong> a sensor<\/strong> with 380&#215;280 pixels, give or take. So that\u2019s a common size. For comparison, current models of higher quality have sensors of 600&#215;480 pixels and that will only get better in the future. The standard pixel size at the moment is <\/span><b>17 microns<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In <\/span><b>2020<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, most will have the sensor resolution of 800&#215;600 pixels. The predicted pixel size will be 12 microns. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The same goes for <strong>the displays<\/strong>. At the moment, most displays are around 640&#215;480. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.optics-trade.eu\/en\/thermal-imaging\/thermal-imaging-clip-on-systems\/shopby\/manufacturer-dipol.html\">Dipol<\/a> already has them in 860&#215;600 pixels. So, as we can see, the development is also quite rapid here. In half a year, we\u2019ll be selling devices that are already exponentially better in accordance to these specifications. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.optics-trade.eu\/en\/pulsar-thermal-imaging-monocular-helion-xq28f.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Pulsar\u2019s thermal imaging monocular Helion<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> offers 7 different colour modes, while the Core model offers only one colour but with an option of choosing whether hot objects are shown as bright green or black. With other manufacturers like <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.optics-trade.eu\/en\/thermal-imaging\/thermal-imaging-clip-on-systems\/shopby\/manufacturer-dipol.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dipol<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.optics-trade.eu\/en\/thermal-imaging\/thermal-imaging-clip-on-systems\/shopby\/manufacturer-fortuna.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Fortuna<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, the displayed image is in black and white. This is another thing that will most likely change in the future as manufacturers will offer <\/span><b>a wider colour palette.<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">That will be all for today. \u00a0If you are interested in more on thermal imaging clip-on systems, there are a few more Optics Trade videos available.
