What i expected for the money - AGM Global Vision Taipan TM10-256 Thermal Imaging Monocular

I have hunting buddies with more superior handhelds, but I did not need to rely on this unit as much for identification, but more so for locating. Within 75 yds or so, animal shape can be pretty well identified. At 150 yds you can tell a deer from a house cat for sure, but a Bobcat or Coyote will not be distinguishable, but that is what my scope is for. For the price, it does it's job that I need, and dont have any regrets. Only reason for 4 stars and not 5 is due to the fact that it will "pause" and have to restart while scanning, causing me to stop motion or miss part of a hunting area until the picture unfreezes for a couple seconds. The WiFi to phone app is nice because a partner can see what you see while only having one monocular.
