The Pulsar Telos line is a direct replacement for the highly successful Pulsar Helion. Though the Helion is a tough act to follow, Pulsar have again pushed the boundaries of thermal development with new technology, ease of use and performance.
- World’s first upgradeable thermal imager.
- Unique manual zoom ring simplifies zooming magnification.
- A rotating hand-strap easily converts from left-right-hand use.
- Body is made from composite heat disserpating polymeric material that is extremely strong and lightweight.
- New LPS7i battery pack has a USB-C charge port for direct charging and can also be charged wirelessly.
The Telos is available with or without a laser rangefinder. LRF models are fitted with a single-channel 1000m laser rangefinder with True Horizontal Distance setting.
Telos XQ35
More info
Great value and performance, the Telos XQ35 is fitted with a Lynred 17µm 384×288 sensor and precision 35mm germanium lens. This model replaced the Helion XQ38, a firm favourite amongst New Zealand hunters.
It is an excellent choice for hunting, pest control, security, wildlife observation and marine use. Its high sensitivity can see through mist, rain and light foliage.
The LRF model is fitted with a 1000m laser rangefinder. The non LRF model can be retrofitted with the laser rangefinder (or other hardware addition) at a later date if required.
Hardware upgrades will be available to keep pace with technology and user requirements.
