Bushnell EX650 Digital Equinox X650 Night Vision 5x 32mm Monocular

Ok there is one caveat to this. You really need to buy a quality aftermarket either red or infra red light for this. Then it becomes an incredible value. I already had the light. I have been trying to coyote hunt with lights with zero luck. Someone recommended this on a fb page saying they were picking up eyes at 800 yards with it. I can say that they are correct. But you have to have a light that will get out there. Without an aftermarket light it's basically a toy and useless for what I need. But as mentioned I already had a awesome light and this has a pic rail that let's u mount the light.With a good light I can sweep a half mile field in a few seconds with a great degree of confidence whether there is anything there or not. It picks up eyes amazingly. Way better than we could ever do with just flashlights. This is a great way to see what's going on while trying to call them in and have your second guy at the ready with a light on his boomstick. Then once it's in close enough to pick up good with a light you are ready to go. Under 200 yards this thing is 100 percent capable of i.d. out side of that u can usually tell by their mannerisms but may or may not have a good look at their body. It has no problem picking up eyes 500 yards our from a racoon in a tree. It's like a spotlight on steroids.You have to understand this isn't a 3500 dollar thermal, but as a scanner and being used in conjunction with lights, this thing will step your game up I promise. I think coupled with a 100 dollar ir light off Amazon you will have a very capable scanner. Or, if like me you already have one, then this is a no Brainerd.I included a couple pics from a coyote that was 150 ish yards out. It's better in person than the pics show.

Excellent in ease of use, light weight and good visibility. Could have a longer focal length for distance, hence 4 stars. Existing length of sight is about 30 to 40 yards which is not bad for the size of the monocular.

Fast delivery and great product

I bought it on "Prime day" deal for $146 and now it is $109. It arrived with dead batteries. Once I figured that out, I put on new batteries and took it outdoors where there is no light polition.- It only zooms 3x.- It is ok for short distance, like 60- 70 yrds it will show you some images like you see in the videos. maybe further with some lighting around.- Not really for outdoors, mostly like kids toys kinda of deal.- You have to print labe and package it yourself. Ebay kind of deal and not Amazon quality standards, waste of my time.- It's been a week that I dropped them off, their return policy is that they initiate your return 30 days after they receive it, and it takes another 7 days to get my refund. imagine how much cash flow they play with for a month form buyers.

I bought this on a whim and was pleasantly surprised. Burned through the Alkaline battery pretty quick because I had accidentally hit the power button putting it in the case. Oops. No documentation came with it, but I was able to go online and download the most current version. The IR illuminator comes on the moment you turn on the device. Once I read how to use the menu, I was able to turn it off. I could also increase or decrease the brightness of the illuminator. I do have IR floodlights around my house so I don't need to use the illuminator on the device unless I move further away from the house. The IR floodlights keep the neighbors from complaining when I turn them on. I was able to see accurately out to 300 yards. Another thing I noticed, I can see a lot of stars when I point my Monocular into the sky, even those I can't see unaided. I have been very pleased with the Monocular. I did replace the 8 GB card with a 64 GB one for more storage. With a 1.0 view, the device works great. When I increase the zoom up to 3.0 the image becomes grainy. For me, the 1.0 view is just fine.10/16/2023 UpdateWhen using the 64 GB card, the device will shut off at times while in use. Sometimes it won't even come on. Once I removed the 64 GB card and replaced it with the 8 GB version that came with it, the problems ceased. Since I primarily use it for wildlife spotting in my neighborhood and night viewing of the sky in conjunction with a couple of telescopes, I don't need to record any video or pictures. I did buy a couple of IR lights for it and they work well with the scope. The quality is pretty good for the price. I would buy one again if I needed another one.
