    18650 battery for Armasight zuse.

    Cr123 are 3.7 volts that's not the issue at all I found out that the 18650 are just slightly too big around to fit into the housing. My armasight external battery pack uses them so I know they are safe to use.

    New digital line from pulsar at shot show.

    I agree with your conclusion on the xsight however fov is the issue not just magnification. I don't know the specs on this but it felt like it had a lot bigger field of view then the xsight when I get one of these in for a review I'll compaird the field of view and take some photos for you. With...

    New digital line from pulsar at shot show.

    I owned both the original x-sight and the x-sight 2 and I'm pretty sure this pulsar is going to crush it. It's much simpler to use much lighter and has a much more sensitive sensor. Has a rechargable battery pack that fits inside where the 4 AA batteries normally go. Has wifi and recorder built...

    Armasight Zeus 640 x 42 Help

    How sharp is the Armasight logo when you power on the unit? If it's sharp and you have followed the setting tips from the video then I would say your scope needs sent back.

    New digital line from pulsar at shot show.

    Just got back from shot show and was really impressed with the new offering from pulsar they have a whole crop of 640 thermals but one thing I wasn't expecting was to see this little scope. It's called the sightline. It uses a 640x480 CMOS sensor and comes in several models. Runs on 4aa...

    How to set up your Armasight thermal.

    Awesome video! I noticed like you said that the screen brightness makes a huge difference at first I thought I would turn it all the way down so my eye could adjust to lower light and not be so blown out when I stop looking through the thermal but then learned that the actual image was much...

    My experience running rechargable cr123a

    I believe you are correct because of the short life. However these seem to work well and the Armasight manual says you can use rechargable ones in the scope. Right now I'm working on 3d printing a new external battery box that is smaller then the Armasight one and won't have the cable sticking...

    My experience running rechargable cr123a

    That was leaving the scope on the whole time. I was changing setting several times for the different weather conditions and zooming in and out a bit as well. I would assume in standby it would get better battery life then if it was turned on the whole time but I don't know for sure. Someone...

    My experience running rechargable cr123a

    So I decided to try some rechargable cr123a batteries in my zeus 640 and was actually shocked with the results I got. I was expecting maybe 30 or 40 minutes of run time before needing to change the batteries but actually got an hour and and 43 minutes before it turned off. I got these on Amazon...

    18650 battery for Armasight zuse.

    So I was wondering if there was an extender machined that fit onto the screw cap for the battery compartment could you run 18650 batterys in your Zeus? I have the extended battery pack but really don't like all the cables and stuff so was just thinking an extension could easily be made but was...

    Smart send what does it do?

    Well I'll keep trying it in different situations and see if it makes a difference. So far in fog and rain the gain and contrast have made the most impact on my image.

    Smart send what does it do?

    OK had my zeus for a few weeks now and got 99% of the settings and controls figured out however I don't exactly understand what the smart scene does? I'm in horrible conditions at the moment with lots of fog and rain so the conditions are constantly changing so I'm ajusitng my scope a lot and...

    What rechargable cr123 batteries do you use?

    I got my zeus scope and an external battery pack however in the thick brush and stuff I don't want the battery pack on there so was wondering if there are any decent rechargable cr123 batteries that I could throw in there. Thanks

    *******************. Ruined my life... :)

    Thanks last year I was shooting a lot and competing quite a bit but this is my 2nd match back so I was happy with my placing but not my performance. I dropped several shotgun shells in the first stage trying to load on the run and that cost me the match. Had to leave 3 targets standing cause I...
