RIX Pocket K2 Portable Thermal Monocular for Hunting, 256x192 (50Hz), Wi-Fi, Handheld Night Vision Monocular

This is a solid thermal image scope. I use it to keep track of my dogs at night when they go out in the upper part of the property. Not only are they easy to find, I can see if they did a #1 or #2 because that is warmer than the environment. In the winter I can even see their foot prints for a short time. Having a replaceable and rechargeable battery that lasts for a couple weeks using every night.

Great build quality and battery life. It’s got a good picture and is perfect for my needs. Highly recommend!

So far this is an awsome little thermal unit. Very compact, almost fits in my rangefinder case on my bino rig, just a little longer than most range finders. The unit works really well for close to moderate ranges, i can pickup small birds in the trees at night or at least their heat signatures. Deer and other larger creatures show up very well up to at least 100 yards, after that you can spot them but images start to get some what fuzzy. I can still make out the deer, elk and large animals, but compared to a unit like burris makes the resolution is hazy. I am pretty pleased with performance for the price of unit. I can see the heat from urine and scat that animals and birds make, and works great to check bedding for freshness. I also like the attached lens cover that slides over lens with nothing to lose, it works great. The color palettes are good, have choices of red, color, white hot and black hot and a 4 power zoom albeit zoom is somewhat limited as lens is small.

For what it is, and the price, I'm giving it 5 stars.But it would probably be better to spend a little more and get one with a higher resolution.Still, this is one of the better, cheaper models. And if on a budget, you'll find no better than the k2

I absolutely love the K2 and S2 Storm they both are awesome

The Rix K2 works but the image quality isn't great. You can use it for quick identification (that something is there) but wouldn't exactly rely on it to show you what you're looking at.... Unless up close or you know what you're seeing.I'd probably recommend dropping the extra money for the K3 if you'll use it a lot. If you just want something quick and cheaper to have on hand this will be just fine.It works. Quality seems alright and the battery is good.

Works great , good value for the money

I know what you're thinking... A review from a person who doesn't know what he's doing. Look, I hope for the best but the battery compartment didn't work. Charge the battery, put them in the right way... tried three more... nothing. Yes, I opened the front cap... Nothing worked. Yes, I tried plunging in another source... THAT WORKED!... But I want the battery compartment to work... Bought this for my son, a sheriff. He can't carry around a battery pack... Been looking for an affordable thermal forever. However, this is a problem that makes me question the quality... Dang.
