Pulsar Ventex XT50 Thermal Binoculars

Pulsar Ventex XT50 Thermal binoculars. HD clarity, 2,300 m range. The Ventex XT50 delivers Europe’s highest-resolution thermal binocular experience – a 1280×1024 sensor, 17.5° wide field of view, and dual-eye observation that keeps you scanning longer without fatigue. Explore features View specifications 2,300 m detection range 17.5° field of view 30.7 m at 100 m 8 hrs battery life dual battery system IPX7 waterproof rated Wide-binocular vision. A 17.5° field and European HD sensor that reveals every corner of the landscape at once. European 1280×1024 HD sensor Pulsar’s sharpest thermal sensor. In a binocular. A 1280×1024 uncooled European sensor with 12 μm pixel pitch and system NETD below 20 mK renders subtle heat differences with extraordinary fidelity. Paired with the HD AMOLED 1280×960 microdisplay, every feather, fur edge, and distant body reads with defining clarity. 2.3 Kilometres of detection range. Spot distant animals, birds at flight altitude, and hidden subjects in conditions where conventional optics see nothing. Wide-angle binocular vision 17.5° – the widest thermal binocular view. At 17.5° horizontal (30.7 m at 100 m) and a 62–74 mm interpupillary range, the Ventex XT50 fills both eyes with terrain. Less panning, more finding. Survey wetlands, open plains, and forest canopies the way you experience them in daylight. Integrated laser rangefinder 1,500 m ranging. ±1 m accuracy. The built-in Class 1 eye-safe laser rangefinder reads distance to 1,500 m with ±1 m precision, in complete darkness, without disturbing your subject. Switch metres and yards on the fly. No separate device to carry or fumble for. Zoom without compromise 2–16× zoom. Detail at every level. A 1280×1024 sensor behind 2–16× digital zoom means maximum magnification doesn’t mean maximum pixellation. Distant birds and animals retain identifying detail at full zoom, day surveys or overnight. Dual battery system 8 hours. Hot-swap capable. A B-Pack Mini external cell (3,200 mAh) plus a 4,000 mAh internal battery deliver 8 hours of operation. When the external pack depletes, the device switches to the internal reserve while you swap. USB-C Power Delivery charges at 5 V and 9 V. Build quality Magnesium alloy. IPX7. −25°C to +50°C. A one-piece magnesium alloy chassis handles the weight of full binocular optics without flex. IPX7 waterproofing protects in driving rain and splashes. Operating range from −25°C to +50°C covers every Australian season. Fatigue-free observation Both eyes working. Hours without discomfort. Thermal monoculars tire the dominant eye – the Ventex XT50 does not. Natural dual-eye observation distributes the load, so pre-dawn surveys stretch into mid-morning without strain. The 62–74 mm interpupillary adjustment and 15 mm eye relief accommodate the full range of observers. Long-range thermal detection You see them. They don’t see you. The 1280×1024 European sensor detects heat at up to 2,300 m – revealing birds in flight, animals at scrub edges, and wildlife on distant ridgelines long before they sense your presence. No light, no noise, no disturbance. 17.5° field of view Less sweeping. More observing. A 17.5° horizontal field (30.7 m at 100 m) lets you read an entire wetland edge or track a moving flock without constant panning. Birdwatchers, naturalists, and wildlife carers all benefit from a view wide enough to hold multiple subjects simultaneously. All-night power Dusk to dawn. Hot-swap ready. The dual battery system – a 4,000 mAh internal cell plus a hot-swappable B-Pack Mini – keeps the Ventex XT50 running for eight hours straight. Swap the external pack mid-session without powering off. USB-C Power Delivery charges fast enough to be ready for the next night out. Key features Every capability, purpose-built.
