1. Features of the Quantum Military Thermal Imagers
The field effectiveness of modern military units directly depends on the availability of a good thermal imager. The Quantum series from Pulsar is based on a microbolometer (or IR array), which gives it important advantages. Models of the series vary in lens diameter, and there are also modifications to the magnification and frame rate. Tactical thermal imagers can be used during the day, at night, in non-standard weather conditions (blizzard, fog, sleet, downpour, smog), taking into account possiblex obstacles that make it difficult to identify the target (this is a high grass cover, tree branches, dense shrubs).
Traditional image intensifier tubes are prone to flare and require an external light source. The monocular of the Pulsar Quantum LD 50S military thermal imager is devoid of these problems.
The Pulsar Quantum LD 50S model is successfully used during night sorties, reconnaissance and observation campaigns, rescue and liberation operations.
You can buy this model of the Pulsar Quantum military thermal imager inexpensivelyin binocular store Sheriff.

3. Features of operation of the tactical thermal imager Pulsar Quantum LD 50S
Batteries are installed in a special container (point 12 on the thermal imager structure diagram), which has four AA-type clusters. In order for the device to work reliably and for a long time, it is better not to skimp on the quality of the used AA batteries or rechargeable batteriesvor. Their optimal capacity should exceed 2500 mA per hour. It is highly undesirable to combine batteries and accumulators of different energy capacities and different types. This can seriously destabilize and shorten the life of this precision instrument.
Automotive power or AC/DC type sources can be used when an external power supply is required. The external source connector conforms to the 2.1mm standard. The input voltage fluctuates between 8.4-15 V. The required power is 3 watts. Outdoor power supply it is better to use type EPS3 or EPS5. This will give approximately 9-20 hours of stable uninterrupted operation.
It is strictly not allowed to hit the focus of the lens with high brightness sources - the electronics of the thermal imager can be seriously damaged.
In addition, the owners of this model noted that light entering the lens from the side can create glare and distortion in the resulting picture. You can protect yourself from this by covering the lens with a cap.
The three operating modes of the military thermal imager require a set of parameters tailored to the specific situation. The "City" mode consists in high contrast, low contrast is applied in the "Forest" mode, the remaining "Recognition" mode assumes increased detailing of the space.
Adjustment of the time and format of its display is carried out by the encoder (point 5 of the diagram). You need to hold it down for a few seconds and select the appropriate icon in the menu. Also in the encoder menu, the device is calibrated, the focus and other image parameters are adjusted, the automaticical modes, selection of the type of video signal, cleaning of dead pixels, adjusting the brightness of the display of menu icons.
Double digital zoom is activated by pressing a special button (point 3 of the diagram). To apply a color inversion, you need to hold down the same button for two seconds.
As you can see, the device has many adjustable parameters, so we recommend that you test and debug it before using it under the following conditions: the lighting should be dim, but sufficient, and the distance to the object should be from 5 m.
Please note that the first introductory video was filmed on a GoPro 2 camera designed for daytime shooting, without applying any thermal camera settings.
And on the second - recording from a model with a higher frame rate.
The Pulsar Quantum Tactical Thermal Imager is IPX4 protected against sudden splashes of water, but direct immersion in water is highly likely to damage it.
It is forbidden to make independent repairs and disassembly of the device. Only clearing the outer optics, which should be made with a cotton swab, napkin or special equipment for multilayer eyepieces.
The operating temperature range of the Pulsar Quantum military thermal imager allows it to be used effectively within -25 / +50 degrees Celsius.
