Conventional thermal monoculars and thermal binoculars like standard Pulsar thermals and all the Chinese thermals available in Australia are optimised, correctly so, for night use. The Pulsar Wildlife series also has the ability to be used at times like dusk and dawn with far better results, due to a better capability to deal with warm backgrounds. For example, looking across a bush setting with setting daylight in the background. Get much more use out of your thermal and better results. That said, no thermal can look up at a eucalypt in the bright midday sun and detect koalas. The sun is so much hotter. No one gets sunburnt or heatstroke from holding a koala, but thousands do from the sun even though it is 150 million kilometres away!
Pulsar Wildlife thermal monoculars and thermal binoculars have a palette designed for long term observation or surveying which is easier on the eye when used for long periods.
There is also a considerable difference between looking for something like a Dunnart or Fairy Wren and looking for a feral pest species or human - also the distances most are observed at. Pulsar Wildlife firmware is optimised to take these size and distance differences in to account , with further firmware updates planned. This firmware is Wildlife specific models only.
The Pulsar Wildlife Thermal monocular and binocular series is Made in Europe. This brings a requirement for longevity of the product, serviceability, recycle-ability and availability of spare parts over the service life. There is a very comprehensive range of spares and very well equipped service facility available in Australia.
Pulsar was the first company to sell thermal monoculars to civilians 15 years ago. Wolf Eyes has been continuously supplying Pulsar Thermal Monoculars in Australia since the beginning and still have some (though not all) of the spares for those first units in our office, with more available from Pulsar. It is rare to get that level of backup on any electronic product, little alone a 15 year old one.
Pulsar also believes in regularly updating the firmware on their products (similar to a mobile phone or computer) so the thermal monocular or thermal binoculars you purchase today will be more capable in the coming years.
Nine colour palettes enable effective observation of the field of view, each of which allow the user to optimise the device for specific scenarios and adapt to changing conditions.
White Hot, Black Hot, and Red Hot are perfect for object detection
Rainbow and Ultramarine will increase recognition and identification capabilities
Sepia, Red Monochrome, and Violet are best for long, night-time observation.
Green for more comfortable viewing with reduced eye strain.
Connect your monocular or binos to the NEW Wild Vision app from Pulsar Wildlife via an Android or iOS smartphone or tablet and discover a wide range of connectivity features, including:
- The ability to use your mobile phone or tablet as a wireless remote to control and adjust the device’s settings, with all the changes made on your device’s screen visible in real-time. This feature also allows for remote recording of footage or capturing of still images.
- A gallery of photos and videos captured on the device that can be browsed through and downloaded. These videos and images can also be shared easily.
- The ability to remotely update the device’s firmware, meaning users can enjoy all the latest features and ensure your Pulsar is always running to the best of its ability.
The built-in still image and video recording capability allows you to catch those amazing moments when observing and watching. It is also invaluable for those doing wildlife surveys, enabling a much more accurate count when reviewed later on a big screen. Or just observing later on the big screen! It is just one press to start videoing or to capture a once in a lifetime image.
The internal memory is generous allowing thousands of images or hours of video to be stored on the monocular or binoculars.
