    Using backup camera as an off road driving aid?

    Has anyone tried using a backup camera piped to another input on the head unit or even an external monitor as a lights out driving solution for getting around ranch roads at night while hunting? I'm not in the Rovir budget club.

    Pulsar BPS 3xAA Battery Holder

    I got maybe 40 minutes on a set of energizers. Temp was steady 62. I wouldn’t expect top batteries to do much longer. That’s disappointing.

    Pulsar BPS 3xAA Battery Holder

    I bought it to keep on my scope while not using it. (No batteries in it) I’ve had an issue with both my old xq50 and now xp50 turning on while in my AR soft sided case being transported and I didn’t want to carry it around with the connector prongs exposed with no battery. I’ll try it with...

    Pulsar firmware v4

    I just updated and am happy with the image processing they added, the base image is noticeably sharper. I also like the rocks/forest/identify modes added to the front button. -xp50 Trail

    Pulsar firmware update

    My stream vision updated just the other day. Do you think it was referencing that?

    What programs and or workflow are you using for Pulsar video to get audio working?

    I played with it some more and found that the h264/mp3 option worked. Don't know why but thought i had already tried that with no luck.

    Group size with thermal

    Can you play with the reticles and find one that might do a better job of framing the handwarmer? The handwarmer I was using was about 2"x3" I cant find them now but was thinking it was smaller than 2" across. I taped it long ways vertical, it did make for an aim small situation. I think Todd...

    Group size with thermal

    When I was working up a load of Sierra 110 pro hunters in my 6.8 and xq 50, I quit when I stacked 4 rounds vertically in about an inch. I was shooting at a small hand warmer and using 10.8x. I’ve shot it out to 300 and got a 4” group. Sounds like either further load development or different...

    What programs and or workflow are you using for Pulsar video to get audio working?

    I've been using VLP to convert the video but haven't found a way to make the audio work using that program. To get Audio I have to load the full clip to youtube then download and edit it. Thanks for any help!

    Which one? Pulsar Trail XP38 vs. Armasight Zeus 640 3-24x75 30hz

    Didn't mean to offend your sensibilities. The differences in frame rate are noticeable. The second question was framed to ask the OP why he ordered the 38 when there was another model (closer) to the mag of the Zeus in the pulsar lineup.

    Which one? Pulsar Trail XP38 vs. Armasight Zeus 640 3-24x75 30hz

    The frame rate of the 50hz is pleasing. The 30hz does show jerky motion on faster animals. Are your distances pretty short? Just asking because the XP50 is a closer match to the Zeus 3x than the 38.

    Time to upgrade...but WHICH PULSAR?!?

    I wish they had a 2.7 640 unit but since they don't i went with the Q50. I don't miss the wide FOV. I like being able to shoot at native resolution and I really haven't been using the picture in picture. I'm hunting pastureland and river bottoms mostly.

    Personal experiences with the 5.56 and hogs

    With head and neck shots i did fine, follow up shots on large sounders not too much luck. I finally had one boar about 200-225 that i had to put five rounds into to drop. About the same time I came across another night hunter who was using the grendel and loved it. I started researching it and...

    Two DRT's from last night.

    One other thing I found out, windows movie maker doesn't accept the new video files that firmware version three puts out. I had to upload these to youtube as the whole video, then download them and then edit them and i can tell quite a bit of quality loss has occurred. I'll see if there is a...

    Two DRT's from last night.

    Brian I had it on so my buddies son and nephew could view the action from the truck. That worked until I got about 20 feet from the truck. I wasn't paying attention to the connection icon in the viewfinder to see that it had dropped as i was trying to position myself around some cattle. I...

    Two DRT's from last night.

    Thanks, Fist shot was off a fence post, second was bipod. These were factory sst's. Good thing they were drt's. Both shots jammed. Been having issues with this 22" triad cycling properly. I did some ladder testing with sierra 110 pro hunters yesterday and not a single jam out of 24 shots.

    Two DRT's from last night.

    Sound was intermittent on the first clip, i think it was due to wifi being on because it didn't repeat in the other clips. Not certain yet. First hog 75 yards, second 110 yards.

    CSASS .308 vs six8

    I've got my own experiences and an 18" 68 is all i need, but watching the videos of the guys shooting heavy infestations of hogs who don't have time for well placed sixth through ten-plus shots, can see the need for as much round as you can reasonably lug a rifle around for.

    Pulsar Helion and Trail Update V3 - AUDIO!

    There seems to be a lot of audio gain on the video, it kind of muffles my voice a bit, in this one i just played an audio track on the iphone about 4 feet away. I noticed a glitch already, when you connect the usb cable to the scope following recording without powering the scope down first, the...

    Pulsar Helion and Trail Update V3 - AUDIO!

    I just performed the firmware update. The sound does work after turning the mic on in setup (doh) The video files are different and will not play with media player as of right now. There may or may not be new codecs available to fix this. I just downloaded VLC media player and it works fine. I...
