You can use them in daytime as a thermal binocular for the amazing detection capabilities. However, the image is a thermogram regardless of whether it's day or night. (Image looks the same on the brightest day ever as it would on the darkest night). To accomplish day and night, the unit would need 2 sensors, one for thermal and one for color, along with the appropriate lens for each.
@foxoptic5887 is there one that has both sp you can use it day time but will look like night either way... im sorry so many questions I have brain injury..here I'm wanting to be able to off set cost by using it more then just night...or just need to get binos
@foxoptic5887 thanks so I can tell wife it's day or night and range finder top I don't want buyers remorse... and make sure I understand and we get what the fact that you know all about. let me know the models you think what I need
I would say the "hot object" detection and ID ranges are still better in the XL50 vs. the XP50 in most conditions. Typically, my experience has been that the generally higher warmth (amplitude) created by live targets creates enough thermal contrast (differential vs the "object" next to it) to satisfy the sensor in most conditions even though its only 40mK on the XL. Items that aren't actively emitting much radiation of their own (grass, leaves, ground, etc) don't look noticeably better in the XP50 PRO with the 25mK sensor. (Better differential precision) I assume it's precision is somewhat offset by the higher resolution. If you know your ID range limits (below 350 yds stagnant ID), and want to save 1900.00 the Merger XP50 LRF PRO remains a great choice, however if you want more ID range and versatility (wider FOV and longer ID range) for unknown hunting conditions the XL can certainly be worth the difference.
@@foxoptic5887 thx for your fast and comprehensive reply…actually I own a Merger XP50 Pro and are questioning myself if an upgrade is worth the money!🤷😉
Since I saw the movie Predator in the 90s when i was a child, I've wanted a thermal binocular like this so much 😀
Love your reviews...
Thank you .
Thanks for watching.
Why Pulsar is not making riflescopes in this resolution?
You never know what the future might bring, but one can assume. (Seems logical that we may see something eventually)
@@foxoptic5887 Let me know if they will come up with something in 1024x768 range (riflescope).
I will.@@newera3757
can you used them for day time..like binocular

@danhughes3626 Yes you can use them day or night, the image will look the same.

Nice review! How do they compare in bad "thermal" weather conditions to the Merger XP50 Pro
