A couple buddies and I are wanting to buy thermals and I have played with thermal but never as a weapons sight. The idea of scanning through the scope for 15-30 minutes on a stand does not sound fun but we also don't have the funds for scopes and scanners off the bat. Honestly, mashing a handheld scanner against my face for 15-30 minutes doesn't sound fun either.
Pulsar has their Stream Vision app for a smartphone, which if you had the phone mounted to a tripod leg, seems like it would work pretty well for scanning as you panned the rifle back and forth on a good tripod. It also seems much easier on the eyes to be able to use both eyes to watch the screen. Has anyone tried this? Does the Stream Vision app work well?
Is remote viewing possible on other brands besides Pulsar, even if by wire?
Setting aside the safety benefits of a separate scanner, is there a reason this would not work well?
