Pulsar HD38s Review

 It’s a different world in the woods at night August 5, 2014
Reviewer: VInce Aurentz from Mesquite, TX United States

I have tried just about ever thermal monocular on the market trying to zero in on the one to buy. Well I bought this one. The 2x is perfect for spotting. I have tried 1x and while better than just night vision, it still leaves a little confusion. I use this in conjunction with my N750 night vision scope and together they have changed everything about the way I hunt. I hunt predators and hogs. I can remain in cover and spot my game without use of colored lights and often without a call. i spot and then do minimal calling. I can’t tell you how many animals i would never have seen without this even with my night vision. The optics on this unit are much better than the competition and the control knob is very user friendly. The specs on this unit beat every other unit i tried. I have learned things about the habits and movement of animals I never would have had the ability to see before. It’s a different world out there at night.  Buy this. Tyler will take good care of you.

Check out another great article from SHWAT.com about a recent night vision demo.

 

AR15.com invited interested people to get some hands on experience with much of the latest and greatest in NV and thermal. This event took place on the border of Dallas and Rockwall, Texas on May 23rd. That’s as good as place as any, and since Dallas/Fort Worth has AR15.com readers who are in the night vision industry, it was no surprise that a few showed up.

I arrived at the official kickoff about 7:30 that evening as the sun was working its way down the horizon. With only short notice, 20 – 30 people made it out to see the gear, meet new friends and have a blast.

Where else can you find this much gear to demo...FOR FREE!?

Read too many night vision and thermal stories on SHWAT.com, or feel frustrated by the stratospheric pricing of the cool guy gear after watching too many night hog hunts on YouTube? I have some great news for you! You can rent this stuff for a very reasonable price! As wild hog skullimprobable as it might seem, gear retailing for $5,000 can be had for a weekend for $199 (even less for SHWAT™ Team Members). So here’s the deal – when you’re done reading this, you’ll have no more excuses not to go high tech tactical hog hunting this summer. You’ll remember it for the rest of your life. Lots of people will say that hunting hogs after dark is where it’s at. For those of us who’ve done it successfully, it’s hard to argue the point. But the barriers to entry in that game are largely spelled with dollar signs and numerous zeroes in the mix. That makes decision making way too easy for lots of people: make a year’s worth of car payments or buy a thermal weapon sight? Too often that leaves “vicariously” the only way to experience the thrill of the night hunt, stalk and kill of feral pigs with the cool toys. It’s time to change that equation.

“It’ll never work.” Those words often follow a great idea in the making. Tyler Adair was met with the same sentiments when he conceived his night vision rental idea. Growing up in small central Texas town, hog hunting has been his passion and pastime for as long as he can remember. Night Vision is what countless hog hunters aspire to hunt with, and Tyler was no different. But we all know that kind of gear is expensive. Necessity may be the mother of invention, but she’s also the mother of business ideas. Realizing he wasn’t the only person holding back on purchasing thermal gear and night vision, he ignored the naysayers and in 2012 started Ultimate Night Vision (UNV). Today, literally thousands of people have rented night vision and thermal gear from him.
