"But I was going into Tosche Station to pick up some power converters!"
As per usual, well done review!! 👍
Interesting device! I hope the manufacturer will continue to improve their features. Autofocus and stabilization would be the highest on the list I think.
Agreed plus USB charging.
Be careful. If you turn the binoculars around, you likely will be able to see the red from the illuminator. Especially at high brightness and close ranges. To an extent, it can be filtered out. Most animals, especially nocturnal ones, can see at least some portion of the IR spectrum. If you look at games camera shots, many of them will be looking at the camera because of the light, so if you plan to go bigfoot hunting, you might scare them away. 😂 The other point, obviously, is that any other night vision device will see your IR illuminator.
It's a little too pricey for me, but looks pretty good (except for the lack of stabilization).
how do you filter out the illuminator to make it less noticeable?
IF U HAD INCLUDED A STAR VEIWING SECTION THIS WOULD HAVE BEEN THE BEST REVIEW ID EVER SEEN, SUPER STUFF, P.S. YOR DOPPLEGANGER LIVES IN THE UK. YOR SPITTING IMAGE.
For sure...at the time, I was completely unaware that stargazing is a fairly common use for binoculars, or else I absolutely would have given that a try. It didn't occur to me to point these skyward. :-) Thanks for watching, and say hello to my twin over in the UK! ;-)
You can also get a Infrared flashlight to supplement the built in light, if you're looking for more of a diffused floodlight you might just have to have a separate flashlight for that. I would also guess that the reason it doesn't come with a battery is to cut cost. Best deal on AA single use batteries I come across is usually costco. But if you kept a rechargable set, you could charge them off the jackery.
That was a super interesting video!! I have been wanting something good to spot wild animals for a while but have not pulled the trigger on anything. That was super good info. Although at minute 12 you could have got arrested for stalking or something, just kidding
Thanks for the content.
You can buy a decent set of binoculars for $200 that would perform better than a digital viewfinder, my opinion.
The manual focus is not the best thing obviously but... if you get really good at using it it could be ok.
after a life time of auto focus on all my cameras, i am excited to finaly have manual, but it would be nice if the focus some how was maintained while you zoom in
Did you try image stabilization through your video editor to smooth out the jerkiness?
Somebody watching you
😎👍
I think ideally a removable battery pack that can be charged outside of the unit. Pack two packs to swap out for charging if needed. Persoannly though I am not adverse to rechargeable batteries.
That focus issue does seem like a mood killer though.
Strange sounds in the night , just before you get eaten by a bear …LOL
Just kidding Donald , neat accessory to add to your arsenal.
Dammit! Me scared now!!!😂 🎉
I think you were spot on with your list of short comings, that being said would YOU pay $350 for it? It's one thing to "like" it when it is free, but another if spending hard earned cash.
Short answer would be NO! All these ChiCom digital viewfinder infrared illumination devices are crap. First they are NOT night vision devices they are dependent on an IR illuminator which while humans cannot see most nocturnal animals can see. Finally, the quality images and lag in screen are usually crap.
@@MIAMIC70Look forward to your review. 👍
you know you hook a power bank to it?
Great review but after going blind trying to watch this review and it Not being rechargeable batteries I give it a 3.9/10
you can buy rechargeable nimh AA batteries
I'm getting the Akaso "Seemor 200" instead...but it probably wasn't available yet back when this video was posted.

I like a honest review of a garbage item...
Oh, great! Then we can't wait til he reviews a product made by you! So what you got?
Candid. I like
I am in desperate need of an item as this one but crap. Now that I've seen your comment. There's no way in tx I'm paying that much for something not worth what I'm going g to have to pay I live next to a creek that's has seen wars and last night our doorbell cam picked up the sound, which I swear had to be on the freezer viewing screen, it was the most sick evil growl I've ever heard. There was nothing there b u t that sounds came from at the speaker gods got me b it t wt!?😅 full moon humid hot so much crazy bad crap going around these here oarts. R block. I'm tripping and that is not OK with me. Buzz kill😅
Ready to go Bigfoot hunting now.
