Lightweight, low cost thermal imaging	abeall	2/25/2008
Greetings, all. I am in the market to purchase our first thermal imaging unit. It will be used for night time observation -- primarily by individuals in the field, but sometimes possibly mounted for driving. I'm looking for a unit with decent range (300+ meters detection range) and lightweight/handheld. I don't have a very high budget. Ideally, I would like something like a rifle scope, but all the thermal rifle scopes I have found are over 10K, I am going for closer to 5K or even less if possible. This unit looks very promising: http://www.nightvision4less.com/thermal_imaging_night_vision/nou-thermal-eye-x100-xp.htm If anyone has any advice about this unit in particular, or a suggestion for my purchase in general, I would love to hear! Thanks.

Hi abeall, Take a look at the FLIR Photon and PathfindIR products. They can be found at our other web site: www.corebyindigo.com The products are small and very affordable. Please contact me directly if you have any questions. Best regards, John Keane John.Keane@FLIR.com
