Ah Roger, my mind wasn't thinking about the fact that the unit needs the germanium coated lens to pass the thermal heat radiation spectrum

I still love my W1000 the old girl held her own against all the new gadgets. A big GREAT job to all involved. Poor Eric did do a lot Ridding around. I spoke with him today to get some DVR cables he was too funny talking about the back and forth ridding he was doing.

On the Apollo, can you use with a helmet mount?

On the W1000, there is a lot of bloom, did you have the contrast really high? Does it reduce any with contrast or brightness reduction?

Im sure you could if you really wanted to, but it would be a LOT of weight cantilevered out over your noggin and would get old really fast. I spend about half he time with my Apollo in my hands scanning, then I can put it on the rifle with one hand, in the dark if I see something interesting.

The bloom on the w1000 can be corrected with contrast. I actually like the bloom it makes the targets stand out to my eyes more.

We need to do this every year since thermal offerings and pricing changes from year to year!

I would love to do it again especially with it cold out. Would need to secure units from several manufactures. I think it would turn out well since we learned a few things last time.
