    I used InFiRay thermal all last summer.Fh35 handheld,great little unit.InFiRayCh50v2 clip on just sits on rifle on all night.I only turn it on when I see a deer or pig.50mm lens in clip on gives great clarity at good distance.Runs on cr123 rechargable batterys.One pair of batterys last 3 hours but as I said only turn on when something is walking in close.
    The monoculers go well on a camera poll thru my sunroof in truck.Got a power lead from cig socket taped on poll to the fh35.Fh35 bluetooth to my phone.Just watch my phone screen all night,touch screen phone to take photos,vids,zoom in n out.Have total control of fh35 from my touch screen phone.Just turn my fh35 360 degrees with my left hand.Bottom of camera poll just sits in cup holder beside me.Got a water proof cover over total sun roof with little hold thru it for poll.Total water proof,can watch for deer in pouring rain.Amazing what animal come out in the rain.I can see deer up to 900yds away heading in my direction.So I know when to get out of truck when they on my blind side on in bit of cover.Turn phone screen dimmer down.Great way to watch for deer sipping coffee on a chilly night when you touching the 70.Now I had a torn tendon off my left rotacup for the last 8 months and its going to be a slow healer.Lucky I'm a right handed deer watcher.
    Rifle scope a 2x16x50 nikko stirling.Has about 35yds fov at 50yds and big 50mm lens matchs the clipons 50mm lens and good light gathera.
