Jahnke Phönix 5 Ultra

1. Adjustable Beam Focus: The Phönix 5 Ultra features a highly precise optical system that allows for seamless adjustment of the infrared beam from a narrow spotlight (1.5°) for long-range identification to a wide floodlight (10°) for broad area illumination. This versatility ensures optimal performance for various observation distances and scenarios.

2. Dual Night Vision Compatibility: Emitting a powerful 850 nm wavelength, this illuminator is perfectly suited for both analog night vision devices (e.g., Generation 1-3 image intensifiers) and digital night vision devices. While analog devices can detect infrared light up to 850 nanometers for a brighter image, digital devices can detect wavelengths up to 950 nanometers. It provides strong illumination without overwhelming analog units and offers excellent clarity for digital sensors, even at extended ranges.

3. Robust & Stealthy Design: Constructed from durable aircraft-grade aluminum with an IP67 rating, the Phönix 5 Ultra is built to withstand harsh outdoor conditions. The 850 nm wavelength is known to produce a faint red glow that can be detected by keen-eyed wild boar and deer if pointed directly at their eyes at moderate ranges (up to 50 meters), making awareness of the environment crucial for maximum stealth.

4. Optimized Power & Battery Life: Powered by a single 18650 Li-ion battery, this illuminator delivers consistent, high-output infrared light for extended periods. Its efficient LED emitter surpasses traditional IR sources in both power delivery and durability, offering superior performance compared to older incandescent or less optimized LED designs. The included battery and charger ensure you are always ready for prolonged night operations.

ABOUT THE JAHNKE PHÖNIX 5 ULTRA

The Jahnke Phönix 5 Ultra distinguishes itself as a premium infrared illuminator, engineered for superior performance across a wide spectrum of night vision applications, from diligent hunting and tactical operations to detailed nature observation. This model boasts a powerful 850 nm LED emitter, delivering an impressive light output greater than 1 Joule per second. The adjustable beam divergence, ranging from a tight 1.5° spot to a broad 10° flood, allows users to precisely tailor the illumination to their needs, ensuring optimal clarity and range up to 500 meters. Its robust construction from aircraft-grade aluminum alloy ensures exceptional durability and reliability in challenging environments. The Jahnke Phönix 5 Ultra is highly compatible with both analog night vision devices, which primarily detect wavelengths up to 850 nanometers for bright, clear images without bloom, and digital night vision devices, which can utilize wavelengths up to 950 nanometers for enhanced stealth. While its 850 nm wavelength provides ample illumination, users should be aware that the faint red glow emitted can be detected by certain animals, such as wild boar and deer, if directly pointed at them within 50 meters, requiring cautious use for maintained stealth. This illuminator’s advanced LED technology offers a superior alternative to laser-based systems by providing a more uniform and consistent beam, reducing the potential for hot spots, and generally being safer for extended use near varying distances.
