RED DOT BY DAY.THERMAL BY NIGHT.
A true 1x red dot sight with a thermal camera built into the top. In daylight you aim with the red dot, both eyes open. When the light goes, switch the thermal on: warm targets show up inside the same window, under the same red reticle.

Day and night, through the window.
From behind the HYBRID. By day it is a clear 1x window with a red reticle. At night the thermal picture fills the window in green and the reticle sits on top.
DAYILLUSTRATIONDaylight: a clean red dot
Clear window, red reticle, both eyes open. In bright sun the thermal picture is faint, so in daylight you use it as a red dot.
NIGHTILLUSTRATIONNight: thermal under the dot
Switch the thermal on and anything warm stands out in the window: people, animals, engines. The red reticle stays on top of the thermal picture.
Both pictures are illustrations made from photos of our unit, not recordings through it. Brightness and the on screen marks on your sight will differ.
Two sights in one housing.
1234A 256 x 192 uncooled VOx core with 12 micron pixels sits on top, behind a flip up lens cap.
A 34 x 25 mm window at true 1x. The red reticle and the thermal picture share it, so you never move your eye.
The front window has its own flip cover to keep the glass clean when the sight is stowed.
Picatinny lever mount with a tension knob. Press the release, swing the lever, lift it off.

Put the red reticle on the warm target. Thermal off again and it is a plain red dot.
One sight for day and night.
Illustrations made from photos of our unit. Rifle not included.
Three thermal looks. Three reticles.
Through the window the thermal picture shows in green, like the real unit. Hold the palette button to cycle the look, hold the reticle button to cycle the reticle, press zoom for 1x, 3x or 5x.
White Hot
Warm shows bright. The easiest look for finding a warm shape fast. Shown here at 3x zoom.
Black Hot
Warm shows dark on a bright field. Easier on the eye for long watching.
Outline
Only the edges of warm shapes are drawn, so the scene behind stays clear.
Dot and circle together: the circle for fast close shots, the dot for precise ones.
Digital zoom on the thermal picture only. The red dot window itself always stays at true 1x.
Illustrations made from photos of our unit to show each look, not recordings through it. Dot size 3 MOA or less, per the maker sheet.
Five buttons on the back.

WHY OURS COSTS LESS
We are the direct one. The sight comes from the factory line to our warehouse to you, with no distributor, dealer or shop counter each adding their cut on the way.
SAME CLASS OF SENSOR
A 256 x 192 thermal core under a true 1x red dot, the same sensor size as the best known thermal red dot on the list.
WHAT IT DOES NOT HAVE
No rechargeable battery pack. It runs on one CR123A, and its USB Type-C port takes outside power and sends video out to an external display.
One sight. Mount on.
- HYBRID thermal red dot sight
- Quick detach Picatinny mount, fitted
- Flip cap on the thermal lens, flip cover on the window
Runs on one CR123A battery. The 3X MAG, on its own flip to side mount, comes as its own part when you pick the setup with it.
Before you buy.
Does the thermal work in daylight?
It turns on in daylight, but in bright sun the thermal picture is faint and hard to see. In daylight, use it as a red dot. The thermal is made for low light and night.
Is the red dot window magnified?
No. The window is true 1x, so you can shoot with both eyes open. The 3x and 5x zoom only change the thermal picture. For real magnification, pick a setup with the 3x magnifier.
Which reticles does it have?
Three: a dot, a circle, or a dot inside a circle. Hold the reticle button to switch.
Which thermal modes does it have?
White Hot, Black Hot and Outline. Hold the palette button for about 5 seconds to switch.
What battery does it take?
One CR123A, under the round cap on the side. The USB Type-C port can also take outside power.
How do I zero it?
Each click moves the point of impact 0.5 MOA, with plus or minus 40 MOA of travel. Turn toward U if your shots are low, D if high, R if left, L if right.
How does it mount?
On a Picatinny rail with the quick detach lever. If it is too tight to lock, turn the tension knob counter clockwise; if it is loose, turn it clockwise.
Can I return it?
Yes, within 14 days of delivery. A 30 percent restocking fee applies to change of mind returns of devices, and you pay the return post. If it arrives faulty, email us within 7 days of delivery and we repair or replace it.
