Maketheone IR Torch 3 Watt 850NM Infrared Light Night Vision Flashlight Torch - Infrared Light is Invisible to Human Eyes - to be Used with Night Vision Device(NOT Include Battery)

Product Information

The 3x base optical magnification is enhanced by turning a small dial to achieve 1-8x digital amplification. The effect is a 3-24x range in 3x increments. Inevitably there’s some pixelation at the higher end, but the 4000×3000 pixel CMOS sensor delivers a crisp image. Advanced controls fine-tune aspects such as IR sensitivity to get the best from different IR illuminators and conditions. Enter then the X-Sight LTV 3-9X, a more affordable version that’s been stripped down to the essentials, weighs just 745g and measures less than most regular telescopic sights at 310mm long. Although many of its bigger brother’s myriad features and options have been removed, the LTV has kept the essentials, or at least most of them. As a result, it retains the sharp optics but is much easier to get along with. Most digital IR scopes aspire to offer the best of both worlds – a daytime colour mode and monochrome by night.

This new wavelength comes with the added bonus that the spectral sensitivity of typical camera sensors is higher in this range than it is for 860 and 940 nm. Using a light source with the same optical output, an 810 nm system will achieve a greater detection distance than was previously possible. It also features the upgraded 2nd generation Strobe Ready dual button interface, that has a strobe ready pedal design inset into the tail cap more to prevent accidental activation, while still enabling fast and easy access to the strobe, mode changing and other outputs even when wearing gloves, making it a perfect tactical torch with true single handed operation. Sightmark claims eight hours of use from the integrated li-ion battery but notes that recording and use of the wifi function will reduce run time. There are plenty of products to choose from and fortunately varying budgets are increasingly catered for. The buttons control magnification, day/night mode, three levels of screen brightness and 1280×720 HD video mode. A central button controls a menu comprising zeroing, reticle design/colour and settings for date/time, language and SD card formatting.The rechargeable 18650 battery is housed at the top of the unit and gives a claimed eight hours of use. Up front is the 850Nm IR torch that has three brightness levels and an adjustable beam. It’s small, but Pard claims a range of 200 metres. With the infrared LEDs selected, the light is turned on and off with the circular tail cap button, which can also be half pressed to provide momentary illumination until it is released. Once turned on single press the mode button (strobe ready lever) to cycle low, mid, high infrared outputs and the setting will be remembered next time the torch is turned on. Momentary high is accessed by holding down the mode button while the light is on, and once released the light will return to the previous setting. Holding down the power button reveals a colour daytime image through the LCOS 1280×720 HD screen that conveys a range of data. There are 10 brightness levels, and an ocular collar adjusts the screen image whilst a second on the objective lens focuses the target image. The fact that the Wraith 4K Max will take a mini SD card up to 256GB hints at its recording capabilities. As the name suggests, the scope will record MP4 footage in a range of resolutions up to 4K and take JPEG photos at 1080×720. Four buttons control functions, including a day function and night mode as well as zoom between 6.5x and 12x. Pressing the second button from the front enables you to take still photos or record 1920×1080 AVI video at 30fps.

A collar on the lens focuses the 1280×720 HD display. It provides data for battery life, date and time stamp, video format, compass and inclinometer. Another adjusts image focus.The 4x optical magnification is boosted by 4.5x digital zoom to give a 4-18x range that’s accessible from the main menu. The picture-in-picture mode helps place shots with even more precision, and at the press of a button, you can record them in HD. Pushing the same dial accesses the menu which comprises seven functions covering settings such as day/night mode, brightness and contrast, reticle and recording. Each of these has its own sub-menu which enables access to functions such as the one-shot zero mode and to select from a range of 10 reticles in nine colours. The run-time for turbo mode is tested without the temperature regulation. Turbo is only accessible with an IMR 18650 or a protected cell with over 8 A discharge rate.
