I dont have a set of thermal binos (yet), but when I decide to purchase it will be those that you posted Bob.

Ive done a lot on internet research on thermal binos and the AGMs are at the top.

I have a pair of pulsar binoculars. Let me say I’m far from an expert but I do believe that you get what you pay for most of the time.

I have a Pulsar monocular I bought to use with my thermal rifle scope, I don't have any sight problems with it

Has everything I need to use, was cheaper than a pair of thermal binoc's by a long ways

People said I would have problems using it compared to regular binoc's but I have not found that to be
the case yet

It was a bit more than most, but I was able to use part of the purchase on tax's for my business, so it worked out !

A monocular, like a thermal scope, messes up/blinds you after looking thru it with one eye working normally and the other light flashed for several minutes. I cannot function very well wop-sided vision.

Maybe I have something else going on with my vision as I never hear others mention this about thermal scopes and monoculars.

I think he'll be pleased with the AGM product.

I have their Rattler V2 scope....no negatives.

Swamp, I must be a whole lot different than most cause it sure don't bother me any, I only use mine at dark any way, and I never get flashed.

At not total dark I can see a problem, total black out when hunting at night, so far no problem's, had it for over three years now as well, enough time to make a notice !

Maybe it's your eye sight is messed up ?

It's more of a night vision disruption. After looking thru the thermal scope or my thermal scanner that eye is useless for several minutes after I look away.

For those several minutes I have one eye that I can see with and the other that is like I just had a very bright light shining in it.
