Bruce is a good guy to buy this stuff from. Only communicated with him by email, but he knows a lot about this stuff and helped me figure out exactly what I needed. And quick shipping. Couldn't be happier.
Matt, Thank you for sharing your experience — I really appreciate it. Even over email, I always try to make sure customers get clear guidance and end up with the gear that truly fits their needs, not just whatever they first looked at. I’m glad the process was easy and that the shipping was quick for you as well. Thanks again for choosing Night Vision Universe — enjoy the setup!

Works great, as described, very sensitive and it can even briefly see footprint trails on the ground. My only complaint is that the lowest magnification is 2x so you cannot really head mount this for navigation, just for scanning and video recording etc.
Thank you for the detailed feedback — it’s really helpful for others considering this unit. The sensitivity on these sensors is impressive, and being able to pick up brief heat trails like footprints is a great example of that. You’re absolutely right about the 2x native magnification — it makes the device excellent for scanning and recording, but not ideal for head-mounted navigation compared to true 1x optics. I appreciate you choosing Night Vision Universe and sharing your honest thoughts — enjoy the unit!
Cool coin
As always, thank you Daniel.
These binoculars have excellent clarity and can pick up heat signatures at great distances. It's easy to spot and identify animals walking through the woods before they come out into the fields.
Danial, Thank you for sharing your experience — that’s great feedback. Thermal binoculars really shine when it comes to early detection, and it’s awesome to hear how well the clarity and long-range heat detection are working for you. Being able to spot animals moving through the woods before they hit the fields is a huge advantage in the field. I appreciate you choosing Night Vision Universe — enjoy the binoculars, and feel free to reach out anytime.

Great optic all around, especially for the price. Two batteries included which will keep you out all night. I've got the 640 version of the Talion as well and the 384 performs very similarly. Image isn't quite as crisp but absolutely no problem identifying animals out to 200 yards, which is as far as I have shooting lanes.
Donald, Thank you for sharing such a helpful breakdown — reviews like this really help other folks make the right choice. The Talion 384 is a fantastic value, and it’s great to hear how closely it performs to your Talion 640 in real-world conditions. Having two batteries included is a huge plus for long nights, and being able to positively ID animals out to 200 yards makes it a very capable scope for most setups. I appreciate you choosing Night Vision Universe.
