Rabid 1,936 Posted November 25, 2020 Report Share Posted November 25, 2020 Just ordered one, been hearing they really need an add on ir, what does everyone use for best performance ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ZacB 114 Posted November 25, 2020 Report Share Posted November 25, 2020 Only use mine for spotting but find the onboard ir is good enough for me. In the main rabbits etc, have watched a fox at 230yrds/meters wandering down a hedge line clear as a bell. Can see rabbits hopping around 180-200 - further than I’m shooting. They (as I imagine all night visions/thermals) do take a bit of playing with, have a mess with the ir focus thingy, pulling back opens the beam, pulling out narrows the beam. I don’t think you’ll be disappointed Quote Link to post Share on other sites

David.evans 5,323 Posted November 26, 2020 Report Share Posted November 26, 2020 Rob the wraith has a dimmer switch that is far better than the srx I can be turned down to fec all if needed and is very handy 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Rabid 1,936 Posted November 26, 2020 Author Report Share Posted November 26, 2020 Cheers Dave, arrived today so going to have a play around and see what it’s like. been told you can remove the diffuser and that sorts it out. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
David.evans 5,323 Posted November 26, 2020 Report Share Posted November 26, 2020 Yep I think you can but I’m prity sure that the laser is at a lower power than the original one have a mooch on the NV site there’s loads of threads about it atb Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bumpy22 414 Posted November 27, 2020 Report Share Posted November 27, 2020 Just sold my 008 lrf plus. Good bit of kit. But would definitely say my original standard 008 has better clarity than new oled screen. If using at cf ranges another ir will be needed. I used my dragon fly ir. To be fair only sold it as I upgraded to drone which is a whole different level 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ukhunter 111 Posted December 2, 2020 Report Share Posted December 2, 2020 if you remove the IR fitter off the newer nv008 & nv007 that will make a big difference but the older models has more powerful IR. but it your wanting really long range work then Sirius is still the best one to go for Quote Link to post Share on other sites
