Are you planning to have any of the other models like the 12W?

For $1000 I will test this one and see if it practical to invest in a higher price unit I know from the FLIR ps32 thermo has its limits but I also know under certain situations thermo is amazing
As geologists stated useless for hunting, trees and grass get in the way. I have seek reveal XR Fastframe and it's completely useless unless it's in an open field.

Let us know how this works

It looks like a pretty neat little unit. The only concern I would have is how low the resolution is. I believe it is around 80x60 pixels, so not a lot of detail. It will be great for detection, but you would indeed need to be quite close to have enough detail to ID I would think. For the price though, it would be a nice addition to a persons night vision kit.
Edit: clearly I didn't read well enough. I see you've put a deposit down. I would say any red dot sight would work reasonably well behind it.
I like your shotgun idea for vermin. I like that idea a lot. I think that is where something like this would shine, being up close and personal within shotgun range.

How's the refresh rate that's the question. It can be clear all it wants but if the imagine is one second delay from the reality, it's useless.
I don't think of thermo and Long range
It shood be handy for dealing with bears and raccoons in camp at night
And for finding and shooting rats
Last year I was working nights on horizontal directional drill it was my job to hike through the bush and look for fracks and my FLIR ps32 was hand
I never encountered any bears on that job but fond deer birds and one wolf this was all in complete darkness
can you get the QR 2x model with a 30hz refresh rate?
