    @55six any updates on how the Xinfrared T2 compares with the T3?

    Also, how does the scope mount work with the picatinny rail and the phone? I'm not sure I can see how it all comes together on the rifle. Would you be able to show a pic? Thanks in advance!

    In regards to cost the new Xinfrared thermal is around the size of the end of your thumb, easily fits into your daypack and costs only $749. It produces stunning results for its price and size.

    Yep those images have pretty impressive resolution for the size and price of the unit.

    We've sold out on the T3 before i had a chance to get some footage. It does share the same tech / hardware as the $2299 infiray AL19 but takes advantage of your cell phones computing power. Super compact in comparison too.

    I took some footage of rabbits last night with the T2 Pro plugged into the iPhone.
