Product Information

Full details

The Pulsar Alaris XQ30 is a compact thermal imaging monocular designed for users needing to detect heat signatures in low-light or challenging visibility conditions. Its key benefit is offering professional-grade thermal sensitivity and a wide field of view in a portable, ergonomic package. A potential caveat is that its detection range, while substantial, may be less than larger, more specialized devices. The Alaris XQ30 features a 384x288 European-made thermal sensor, a 30mm f1.2 germanium lens, built-in image/video capture, and an IPX7 waterproof rating, providing robust performance for wildlife observation, security, or search and rescue.
