charlie caller 3,654 Posted June 3, 2015 Report Share Posted June 3, 2015 Well unboxed the new Yukon 6.5 today (thanks Ian have not put it on a rifle yet, as I cant make my mind up which one first impressions are good, and I dont think using it for closer range will be a problem, so think I made the right choice, I have ordered a t38 with the new pill to go on top, so looking forward to getting it into action 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

If you want to see even further in the future get a T50 single cell with the new AS IR LED. Shame the moons out it doesn't really get dark till 11pm lately.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tremo 138 Posted June 3, 2015 Report Share Posted June 3, 2015 A review when you can CC. I'm interested to know what you think after a field trial. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
charlie caller 3,654 Posted June 3, 2015 Report Share Posted June 3, 2015 Yes mate, when I can make up my bloody mind about which rifle to put it on took it out tonight, just into the local park, not quite dark but, I could just make out a dark shape in the field, with the naked eye, switched the Yukon on, ooooh hello mr fox the t38 I am getting has the new AS IR chip in it, so think it will be pretty damn good, so in daytime am I better popping the centre cap out, rather than viewing through the little pin hole with the flip up cover closed? It does not let too much light in then, cheers. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
IanB 0 Posted June 4, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 4, 2015 Yes you can do it that way as well if you want CC .. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
charlie caller 3,654 Posted June 5, 2015 Report Share Posted June 5, 2015 Well after trying it with and without the centre cap popped out in the daytime, I think the image/depth of view is much better, you do get the odd flicker like an old black and white telly when you move it around (a bit too much light transmission possibly) but it is not a problem,took it out last night late on when it was as dark as its going to get, and tried the new t38 with the as pill fitted, brilliant, with the onboard illuminator I can just make out one of those dog shi*e bins @ 300 yards, and yes at a push could probably shoot it, switch on the t38 and entirely new vistas open up, literally, I can see the bin very clearly, and would have no probs shooting it, at the moment I have no plans to add a doubler, as it will not be used for very long distance, although, I might play around with a 1.7 50mm camera lens and see how that performs. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
IanB 0 Posted June 5, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 5, 2015 Yes I get the odd flicker during daylight use on mine CC, at night time its fine. I might venture out tonight and get some footage on here. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
charlie caller 3,654 Posted June 5, 2015 Report Share Posted June 5, 2015 Cool, what do you think to the camera lens idea, you tried it? I know it works there is a guy on the NV forum that has done it and it looks very good indeed. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
archiekale 427 Posted June 5, 2015 Report Share Posted June 5, 2015 i cc what is the difference with the new t38 which as a AS IR CHIP Quote Link to post Share on other sites
charlie caller 3,654 Posted June 5, 2015 Report Share Posted June 5, 2015 The new AS pill is 30+% brighter than the old Osram pill, with the same driver apparently, and 90% brighter with a different driver, or at least that is the explanation on the nv forum, it is certainly a brilliant little torch thats for sure,got it of a lad on the nv forum who fits them with the new pil and has his own nv shop/site nite tech I think it is. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
