Overview
The Pulsar TELOS LRF XT50 is a handheld thermal monocular for wide-area scanning, distant heat-signature evaluation, and integrated ranging. Its European-made 1280x1024, 12-micron sensor, 50mm F1.0 objective, and 17.5-degree field of view provide high-resolution detail across a broad scan. The 2-16x digital magnification extends to 24x with Zoom Boost, but all magnification is digital. The zoom ring retains its setting after shutdown.
The built-in 905nm laser rangefinder measures to 1200m in single-shot or scan mode. Electronic image stabilization, Picture-in-Picture, three amplification levels, nine color palettes, and rounded or circular display shapes support observation. The replaceable LPS 7i battery runs up to 8 hours and charges over USB-C. The 128GB memory records MP4 video with sound and JPEG photos, while Stream Vision 2, Stream Vision Ballistics, dual-band Wi-Fi, and USB-C UVC video output support connected workflows. IPX7 protection, a nonslip rubber-coated housing, haptic button feedback, and a 1/4 inch tripod thread in the LRF housing support field use.
