FLIR Thermal has some GREAT Competition!


Ever since FLIR appeared on the market, it has dominated the thermal industry for Bigfooters for years. Then SEEK came out and turned your smart phone into a thermal camera for $299, but it did not have the same quality of FLIR's technology like we were all hoping for. It was a nice affordable attachment for your iPhone, but it didn't quite get the job done as one might hope you would get with a FLIR camera. A decent thermal camera that records video at 640x480 is around the $9,000 price range with FLIR. However, there is a new kid in town and it is less money than FLIR with more bang for your buck!




The LRTS-15 Handheld Long Range Thermal Surveillance Scope does not have the FLIR Scout issues that require a propriety screwdriver to replace the batteries which is a major complaint with bigfooters. It has a 6 hour rechargeable battery (2 are included).

With the 75mm lens you get an amazing 18x zoom capability. That and the camera resolution is 30% better than FLIR and it's only $4,995.  Check out this website for more information: http://www.x20.org/product/long-range-thermal-surveillance-scope/
