Night Pearl Scops 13 Thermal Imaging Monocular

• Wide field thermal view: The 18.00 ° field of view and 312.00 m/1000m coverage help scan woodland edges, fields, and short-to-medium distances quickly, so heat signatures are easier to pick up without constant panning.
• Compact 13 mm F1 lens: The 13.00 mm objective with F1 aperture keeps the monocular light and easy to carry while still gathering enough thermal energy for dependable observation in poor light and difficult weather.
• 50 Hz thermal image: A 50.00 Hz refresh rate gives smoother motion when tracking moving animals or checking an area on the move, reducing the jerky image effect common in slower thermal devices.
• Lightweight field handling: At 330.00 g and 160.00 mm long, the Scops 13 is easy to keep in a pocket, pack, or vehicle, making it practical as a constant-carry thermal monocular.
• Weather-ready construction: IPX-6 waterproofing, fogproof construction, and a -20 ° / + 50° C working range support reliable use in rain, cold mornings, and changing outdoor conditions.

About the Night Pearl Scops Series

Night Pearl Scops is a family of thermal-imaging handheld devices built around practical field observation rather than weapon mounting. Within the Night Pearl lineup, the series sits as a compact handheld option for users who need thermal detection for hunting, game recovery, property monitoring, and general night observation. The Scops concept focuses on fast deployment, simple controls, and a format that can be carried all day without the bulk of a larger thermal camera.

Across the series, the emphasis is on a broad viewing experience, straightforward thermal imaging operation, and a housing suited to outdoor use. Night Pearl positions Scops models as dedicated handheld thermal units, and the range has included multiple variants, including Scops 35 MAX III and Scops 35 MAX IV. That makes the series relevant to users who want a thermal monocular for scanning and detection first, with less complexity than a full riflescope or clip-on system. In practical terms, the Scops line is aimed at those who value portable thermal observation, quick target acquisition, and a simple way to detect heat sources in darkness, brush, or poor visibility.

About the Night Pearl Scops 13 Thermal Imaging Monocular

The Night Pearl Scops 13 Thermal Imaging Monocular is a compact handheld thermal device built for close- to medium-range detection where field of view matters more than high base magnification. Its 1.00 x optical magnification gives a natural scanning perspective, while the maximum magnification of 2.40 x allows the user to enlarge a heat source for better confirmation without turning the monocular into a narrow-view observation tool. That balance makes it well suited to woodland edges, short field crossings, searching for movement around buildings, and general thermal spotting on the move.

The thermal core uses a 240x180 microbolometer with 17.00 μm pixel pitch and a 50.00 Hz refresh rate. In practice, this combination supports stable thermal detection with smooth image movement, which is especially useful when sweeping terrain or following moving animals. The LCOS display with 720x540 resolution presents the thermal image clearly for handheld observation, while automatic and manual calibration modes let the user balance convenience with image maintenance in changing conditions.

The 13.00 mm F1 objective supports a wide viewing angle and a stated 500.00 m detection range, giving the monocular enough reach for routine spotting tasks while keeping the body compact. With IPX-6 water resistance, fogproof construction, 7.00 h battery life, and a weight of 330.00 g, the Scops 13 is designed as a practical thermal monocular for regular field carry rather than occasional use.

About Night Pearl

Night Pearl was established in the Czech Republic in 2009 and focuses on electro-optics for low-light and no-light use. The brand’s range covers thermal imaging, night vision, digital night vision, and daytime optics, with products that include monoculars, binoculars, adapters, sights, clip-ons, and rifle scopes. This broad product mix shows a clear specialization in observation and aiming systems for field use.

A key step in the company’s development came in 2016, when Night Pearl opened a research, development, and manufacturing facility in Bystřice pod Hostýnem. The company had already entered the thermal segment under its own brand in 2014, expanding from earlier night-vision products such as the NP-22 clip-on, which was completed in 2008. Today, Night Pearl’s thermal lineup includes handheld devices, clip-ons, and rifle scopes, reflecting a strong focus on practical thermal and night observation equipment.
