The Thermosight T50 320 x 240 is an uncooled weapon sight that is designed to easily mount in front of a day sight such as the Trijicon Advanced Combat Optical Gunsight. The Flir Thermosight is a smart choice in night vision thermal imaging weapon sights because it will maintain your current bore sight, making the switch between day scopes and night scopes easy and painless. This kind of functionality is one of the many reasons that the T50 is a trusty piece of equipment that will serve your needs in the field from dusk until dawn.
The T50 thermal vision scope utilizes thermal imaging technology, meaning that even in terrible weather conditions like heavy fog or extremely dark situations where you simply lack light to amplify (as a normal night vision device would), the T50 will still be an effective piece of technology. This, truly, is what makes thermal imaging technology so useful in the field. You can rely on it no matter what.
The Thermosight T50 320 x 240 offers a 320 x 240 VOx microbolometer, has a 9.33 x 7 Field of View, and is so quiet it is completely inaudible beyond one meter. This kind of technology makes it perfect for the night vision user who needs stealth in his operation.
The Thermosight T50 requires 3 CR123 batteries and offers roughly nine hours of nonstop use. The T50 ships with three batteries (CR123) as well as a red laser pointer.
It mounts to a Picatinny rail mount and has an IP weather rating of 68.

Thermal Imaging
Please note that most thermal devices are built per order. It may take 3-5 days or more for your order to ship. If timely shipping is important to you, please, contact us to verify availability prior to ordering.
Thermal devices can produce various types of images. Some are color others are monochrome. In either case change in shade or color indicates temperature differences.
Here is how thermal imaging devices work...
A special lens focuses the infrared light emitted by all of the objects in view.
The focused light is scanned by a phased array of infrared-detector elements. The detector elements create a very detailed temperature pattern called a thermogram. It only takes about one-thirtieth of a second for the detector array to obtain the temperature information to make the thermogram. This information is obtained from several thousand points in the field of view of the detector array.
The thermogram created by the detector elements is translated into electric impulses.
The impulses are sent to a signal-processing unit, a circuit board with a dedicated chip that translates the information from the elements into data for the display.
The signal-processing unit sends the information to the display, where it appears as various colors depending on the intensity of the infrared emission. The combination of all the impulses from all of the elements creates the image.
There are a few key Manufacturers when it comes to thermal imaging.
ATN: produce such well knows devies as ThOR-HD thermal scope, BINOX-THD thermal binoculars, and OTS-HD thermal monocular.
FLIR/Armasight: the largest maker of consumer level thermal products is well knows for their full product line. Zeus thermal scopes, Q14 and Scout monoculars, Helios and Scout binoculars and many more.
Pulsar: a very popular brand for digital night vision and thermal imaging. Key products include Pulsar Trail and Apex thermal scopes and Pulsar Helion and Quantum thermal monoculars.
Seek: mobile device mounted thermal cameras are the main products of this brand.
Delivery Time and Manufacturing Process for FLIR ThermoSight T50 320x240 Thermal Weapon Sight with Red Laser:
Most of our manufacturers do not keep products like FLIR ThermoSight T50 320x240 Thermal Weapon Sight with Red Laser assembled on the shelf. Night Vision tubes are kept separate from the body of the unit. When the order is placed, the manufacturer starts the order processing and assembly process which includes the following:
- Order processing - we collect all the necessary information including address and phone numbers. We also make sure that our customer ordered the correct product for their needs and that the product can be exported by US law to the country of destination. In some cases a signed export compliance form is required.
- QC - in this step the manufacturer will inspect all individual parts which will be used to assemble the night vision device for any defects.
- Production & Assembly - during production, all the parts are put together. Night Vision tubes in inserted into the body of the unit and all the complex electronics for the device are connected. This process takes place in a special lab called the "clean room" as even a small speckle of dust can cause undesired optical effect.
- QA - one the night vision device is assembled, it goes through a rigorous testing process to make sure it meets all the expected specifications and all parts function as expected. For this most manufacturers have a special "dark room" designed to allow testing of the units without causing incidental damage to the night vision tube by exposure to bright light.
- Packaging - this is a key process as well. In most case your night vision device will be shipped to you directly from the manufacturer but sometimes needs to be sent to us first. In either case items need to be packaged securely to avoid any kind of damage during transportation.
- Shipping - as described above items will most of the time ship from the manufacturer. For most domestic orders (unless shipping to POB or AFB) a premium shipper like FedEx or UPS will be used.
Only by following the above steps can we along with our manufacturers bring you - our customer - night vision products of highest quality, However as you can understand the above process can take several days to complete. For example if your device fails QA, the entire process restarts. Also at QC stage a manufacturer may realize that the tube they have in stock has a defect and a replacement tube needs to be ordered. Due to the complexity of this process, it is prudent to expect 3-4 business days for production and handling of the purchased device. Keep in mind that this process is designed to guarantee your satisfaction with the night vision device of your choice. It occasionally possible to expedite the process for urgent orders but addional fees or other restrictions may apply.

Question
Since the sight is not made until ordered, how long does it take to get? And what is the reasoning for this? Also what is the excepted life of a Thermal scope/T-50? I realize it is a piece of electronic equipment but at these prices I would think it would last a number of years. How long is the warranty? Thanks, David...

Answer
Hi David. T50 is actually pre-built. Some smaller companies like Armasight and ATN sometimes build units to order as they can use the same thermal core in different types of devices. So they don't want to plug into a scope if the next order is for a monocular. Now as far as T50 longevity, it is expected to run for 15 years if you use it 3 hours a day 5 times a week (it's just a convenient way to think about 12000 hours). The warranty on it is 1 year. The reason FLIR does that I am guessing is that these units were built for USA military and they could get away with murder. However these units are MilSpec and really do last. They are also impossible to find and we have only 2 left in stock. Please let us know if you have any further questions.
