Awesome, glad you like them. I havent gone to a deer stand yet this season without a pair

​@@AGMusa wish I could take them with me for deer season but it's illegal in MO. I will be using them for our thermal/nv season but primarily purchased them for our TX hog hunts, these will be much faster and quieter than trying to swing my adder attached to a rifle in and out of small blind window in pitch dark. Thank you for making an awesome product for an affordable price!

Yes it will look very similar. There is no magnification in the clip-on. A clip-on is just 1X, as the magnification is from the daytime scope its paired with. But with a 256 clip-on, they're really just built for low end magnification scopes, LPVO's, etc.

@AGMusa I see that the V1 could be used as a monocular when not on the weapon with an eye peice. But I can't find any information is the V2 can be used as a monocular as well. (The clip on)

@@bengrice2312 yes, we've got them in stock. Sku 6328XER21. They MSRP for $245. I have reached out to website team to see if we can get them active on the website.

It sounds like you probably didnt have either your diopter focused properly, or the lens focused properly. They 384 rattlers are sub-20mk. Its probably more sensitive than your buddies pulsar, if it was a 384 as well. I sight in our 384's pretty regularly for product testing and can only see an issue like that happening if something isnt focused properly. You can record it and email it to our support team and we can probably tell pretty quickly based off what we see.

@@AGMusa Thanks for the response! I did verify that the diopter and also LENS focus was dialed in right. We had placed a handwarmer on a target out at 50 yards (50/200 yard) zero. I couldn't tell whatsoever where my bullet was hitting ... It was rather cold out (15 degrees) so not sure if it was just too cold to zero? Yet on the Pulsar you could see where the round hit for almost 60 seconds (enough to freeze screen) to then change you x/y crosshair. Idk... I'll play around with it more but greatly appreciate the response!

@@RB2_TechReviews Yes sir, no problem. The cold shouldnt really affect the ability to see a bullet hole. Is there a chance it just wasnt on paper? Or did you verify there were holes close up that you just couldnt see through the device when fired? Also, if your buddies pulsar was a 640 resolution, that could cause the disparity. But If you get out again and want to just record a little video clip and email it over to us, we'll take a look at it for you. If we see something wrong we'll definitely get it back to our warehouse so we can take a look and fix and/or replace for you.

@ thank you tons for the response! I’ll report back. My buddies was a 384.

just shoot us an email at support@agmglobalvision.com. connection issues are usually a pretty simple fix.

Yea a lot of it just comes down to use case. Inside 120 yards, you can sit right next to a guy with a 640 and shoot anything he shoots. The larger lenses and higher resolution units start to show up more the longer and further out you go. And just the larger surface area of the 35 and 50 or 75mm lenses will help identify targets a little better at much larger distances. But close in, inside 100, not a huge advantage.

You've got the recoil activated video turned on, you've shot numerous times, and there are not videos in the DCIM folder after plugging it into your computer to pull them off?

They're all on our website, 24/7. But we advertise at MSRP, our dealers will all be a tad cheaper.

Should be instructions in the manual of your device. Its unique to each item the first time you connect, then after that it can be changed to whatever you want it to be in the future. If you dont have the paper manual that shipped with the device, there should be a digital version of each manual on that item's product page on our website

middle of the day, but would look identical in the middle of the night

this was the middle of the day, but the time doesnt matter. Light means absolutely nothing to a thermal device. Light does not even enter the lens. its not a glass lens, its germanium. Its only gathering subtle temperature differences on different surfaces, which forms the outline of images you see, essentially. but there's no day/night differences. Light does not play a part. Larger temp differences lead to more crisp images, so 50 degrees will look better than 100 degrees with 80% humidity. but its temp playing a role, not light.

ruclips.net/video/V6k124U8nl4/видео.html

Too cold shouldnt really negative affect things, just because thermal is only gauging temperature differences of different surfaces. But if you have the cardboard out there in really cold weather, sometimes the longer its out there the more it will absorb the temperature of the air quicker. What resolution are you using and at what distance? We do have a package of 50 six by six thermal targets available on our website as well. they just arent as cheap as we'd like them to be.

Sorry ignore my comment, I see where you listed yard and cartridge above. I'd just try moving in to about 50yds, then maybe 25. After getting on at 25, move back to 50, and with that caliber you'll be on at 200 as well. Make sure you have your diopter adjustment dialed in so you can get the image as crisp as possible when zooming and focusing.

Its a long press of the zoom button. It should activate and deactivate PiP

@ that worked, thanks again! I could not find mention of it in the manual.

@@timothy____1989 Page 10, I believe

Definitely hard to go from high resolution all the time back down to low. Like going from 4K tv back down to HD.

This please!

Not sure what you mean? What the Taipan V2 has to offer vs our new line up? Are you referring to something like the ReachIR's, or Sidewinders? Not sure what you mean by vs our new line up...?

Yes, it has a built in fully integrated ballistic calculator. you just have to enter all your ballistic data into it and after ranging it will give you the holdover mark for your particular cartridge

Yea, you'll need something that leaves a hole. Steel wont work because the bullet isnt penetrating the steel its just deflecting off, so there's nothing to leave behind a mark on. You can use a cardboard box and either nail a hot hands onto the target, or you can use foil as well.

No sir

It reflects heat and holds heat. You can also get a hand warmer and tape it to the back side of cardboard and cut a bullseye square in it and then tape the hand warmer to the back. It will literally up like a Christmas tree

They're definitely much more popular for this reason. I usually only advise clip-ons for very specific use cases.

I believe thats an Infinity Target, infinitytargets.com/?srsltid=AfmBOorU07tWNyGgNzzAXPh0oU63-34ZV7oKgI3O0aDmyZC5dGJB6qd7

About two and a half lbs, I believe

@ okay thank you

If the sensor and lens size are the same, then the image is almost the exact same. A 50mm VarmintV2 640 will look the same as a 50mm RattlerV2 640, etc etc. The Clarion 384 at 25mm lens is almost exact same image as the RattlerV2 384 in 25mm. They're all using sensors with same resolution, pixel size, mk temperature rating, display, etc.

@@AGMusa thanks for the reply. I guess what I’m really thinking is that the clarion 384 and rattler v2 640 are pretty comparable in price and so someone would probably cross shop these two and so it would be fun to see them side by side like this so you can really see the quality as it changes relative to digital and optical zoom settings. By my understanding of how the digital zoom works, the clarion on the higher magnification prob looks better at certain distances/zoom settings. Though, I’d also assume the clarion would be losing out to the 640 at closer distances/lower zoom settings and it would just be fun to be able to see this in side by side views like this. Like “clarion 384 at 4.5x at 100 yards, etc next to rattler v2 640 with 5x digital zoom at 100 yards etc etc” Does that make sense? I guess currently the only way to do that sort of comparison is in two separate video players.

@@matta6301 It does, but unfortunately, if we go about comparing every model across different product families, we'll never get anything else done. lol.

​@@matta6301 The math is relatively straightforward and is pretty good at telling the story of which you'll believe is better at a given zoom range. Every time you DOUBLE your base magnification, you cut the resolution in half. Clarion 384 set on the 50mm lens has a base magnification of 4.5X. The RattlerV2 35-640 has a base mag of 2X, meaning at 4X, its new resolution is roughly 320. Crank it up to 5X and you're pixelating further. So, a Clarion at 384 is going to look a little bit better since its done no digital zooming at that stage. At 8X the RattlerV2 35-640 is around 160 resolution. Whereas the Clarion would double to 9X and be at 192 resolution (4.5X base mag times 2, and 384 divided by 2). but yea, its just a very labor (editing) intensive process just to do the in-family comparisons so if we started comparing cross families, there are just too many combinations, so it would get pretty time consuming (unfortunately).

@ haha, I understand. Thanks for the explanations.

If money is no obstacle, then the Clarion will have the advantage of having the 60mm lens and a 3X base mag setting, which will give it the advantage in longer range shots.

@@AGMusa Why not include an lrf in this scope?

@@USMCGUY2020 Weight. The clarions are already heavier than most thermal scopes because its got two internal lenses, so adding an LRF was going to add even more weight to an already heavier device. They were also higher priced compared to single lens systems so wanted to refrain from adding even more to increase the retail price.

ruclips.net/video/c6ewBAEOMng/видео.html

Click on the videos section of our home page and you can find that video. It was published a few weeks ago.

We'll wait until the day you finish sighting in your V2 to release the V3!

​@@AGMusa😂

Thank you sir

Of course

We dont have a clarion LRF in the works currently. We may look into it sometime in 2025. But its just a tough platform for an LRF, because they are already a little heavier when you incorporate multiple lenses internally to get two true unique base magnifications

I'm sure they'd be happy to take music suggestions. What background music do you use to feature your thermal rifle builds?

@@trash_puppy_officialVivaldi Four Seasons Winter including the crescendo

Yes, very clear at 20 yards. You will have a tight field of view.

@AGMusa well I just Purchased the 19-256 v2 for my first thermal can't wait till it's charged

@@mickeythompson8770 If you go to our image comparison playlist you'll see videos showing every image in the RattlerV2 family side by side. We show what you'll see out to 300+ yards. its pretty helpful. Have fun!

And ignore me, I just realized what video you were commenting on!

@@AGMusa this scope is amazing for the price i love it!!!!!

Happy hunting.

No. There is no way to do that. This scope is basically just a digital camera. The only way to move it would be to adjust the mount on the rifle. Which won't be easy without modifying everything.

Correct. Image through eyepiece will always be a little better

Base magnification isnt a number that can just be selected, unfortunately. Its based on physics. Its based on a mathematical equation between thermal sensor resolution, micron size, display resolution, lens size and focal length in the eyepiece. Historically, anything over 4X base mag doesnt sell all that great. So its difficult to justify it on the manufacturing side of things, which is why you dont see any thermal brands doing it much.

@@AGMusa I understand that no one offers one. That's why I was hoping y'all would. Historically thermal has been very pricey and limited to a few reputable manufacturers. That is changing rapidly and is now more affordable than ever. Your current 50-640 is base power of 2.5. If you could optically double that to 5 it would be awesome for long range and other specific scenarios. I'd buy 2 tomorrow if it was offered. Digital zoom images are not what I'm looking for. Btw, historically high base magnification thermal scopes didn't sell for only 2 reasons. Number 1 by far was that they weren't/aren't even offered. Number 2 is "back in the day" you used your weapon site as your scan tool. Field of view was too small, therefore no one wanted it. NO ONE seriously hunting does this any more. We all use a monocular or NVG to scan. How many 25-256 units are y'all selling? I bet its a lot and both of mine, my brother and brother in-law have them for the magnification. We would've spent more for the higher resolution models if the base magnification was greater. I understand the physics/mathematics involved. Its doable, although not perhaps in the current Rattler lineup/form factor. Love your products and will continue to use. Hope to see higher base mag units in the future.

​@@highrafterranch1982 We already have a 4X 640, the Secutor LRF. And as you can see, it requires a 75mm lens to make the math work. But its an incredibly good image. Not an optimal battery type (made for mil/LE programs) but if you pair with a rail mounted anker power bank, its a fantastic setup with full LRF and ballistic calculator. www.agmglobalvision.com/thermal-imaging/thermal-weapon-sights/agm-secutor-lrf-75-640

@@highrafterranch1982 Another way to do it is to just use a super high resolution display. It doesnt do as much for image quality as people think, because the sensor is still 640, and you can do incredible images in 640 low res displays, but what it does do is raise the base mag and change the equation. We're experimenting with some new stuff in this area, so just keep an eye out for our SHOT Show releases in January! 🤫

most likely a battery issue more than a scope issue, but shoot out support team an email at support@agmglobalvision.com and they can speak with you about it. The scope's internals should work down to about 0 degrees
