Specs

Sensor
Resolution

Sensor resolution

How many heat-reading pixels the sensor has, such as 384 × 288 or 640 × 512. More pixels show more detail, but the lens matters just as much.

256 × 192
Pixel pitch

Pixel pitch

The size of each sensor pixel, in microns. Smaller pixels mean more magnification from the same lens. Most current thermals use 12 microns.

12 µm
NETD (maker’s claim)

NETD (thermal sensitivity)

How small a temperature difference the sensor can show. Lower is better, but brands measure it differently, so numbers from two makers are not a fair comparison.

<50 mK
Refresh rate

Refresh rate

How many times per second the picture updates. 50 or 60 times a second looks smooth; lower rates stutter when you pan or a coyote runs.

Optics
Lens

Focal length

The lens number in millimeters, like 35 mm or 50 mm. A longer lens puts more pixels on a distant animal but shows a narrower slice of ground.

10 mm objective
Base magnification

Base magnification

How much bigger things look before any digital zoom, like 2× or 4×. Higher is not automatically better: it narrows your view.

0.7×
Max digital zoom

Digital zoom

Electronic enlarging of the picture. It makes the animal look bigger but adds no detail; past about 2× to 4× the image gets blocky.

Field of view

Field of view

How wide a view you get, in degrees. A wide view makes scanning for animals faster; a narrow one usually means more magnification.

Not publishedField of view published only as 95 ft at 100 yd with no axis, so no angle is stored. Model TM55. Zoom 0.7 to 1.4x from the 2024 catalog (product page cut off); the owner's manual introduction says 1.8 to 3.6x. Photo and video in the app only; no internal memory.
Detection range (maker’s claim)

Detection range

The maker's figure for how far away a warm object shows up as a dot or two. It is far longer than the distance you can tell what the animal is.

Display
Display

Display resolution

How many pixels the small screen inside the eyepiece has. A sharp screen looks cleaner but cannot add detail the sensor did not capture.

Runtime

Battery life (runtime)

How many hours the device runs on a charge, by the maker's test. Real runtime is shorter in the cold and with Wi-Fi, recording or the rangefinder on.

Features
Rangefinder

Laser rangefinder

A built-in laser that measures how far away the animal is. The rated range is for big, reflective targets; expect much less on a coyote.

Storage

Onboard recording (storage)

Built-in memory that records photos and video of what you see. Useful for reviewing shots and sharing hunts; listed in gigabytes.

Wi-Fi / app

Wi-Fi and app

A wireless link to a phone app for live viewing, downloading videos, changing settings and updating the device's software.

Weight

Weight

How heavy the device is. Check whether the maker weighed it with or without the battery, because brands do it differently.

9.9 oz
Water rating

IP rating (water rating)

A two-part code for how well the device keeps out dust and water. IP67 means dust-tight and survives a short dunk; an X means not tested.

IP66
Operating temp

Operating temperature

The temperature range the maker says the device will work in. Batteries lose much of their runtime well before the low end of that range.
