Initial Impressive is very impressive entry level thermal scope. Exceeded all expectations!
Trent, Thank you for sharing that — I’m really glad to hear the Initial Impressions entry-level thermal scope exceeded your expectations. It’s a great option for getting into thermal without sacrificing usability or image quality. Hearing that it impressed you right out of the gate makes my day. Thanks again for choosing Night Vision Universe.
Bruce was very knowledgeable and helpful. The K3 performs better in humid, dew point conditions than my Pulsars that cost twice or three times as much. The K3 is a perfect mid and close range thermal for predator hunting and game recovery.
John, Thank you for taking the time to share this — I really appreciate it. The K3 has proven to be a strong performer in tough conditions like high humidity and heavy dew, so it’s great to hear it’s outperforming expectations compared to higher-priced units. It really does shine as a mid- to close-range thermal for predator hunting and game recovery. Thanks again for choosing Night Vision Universe
I own several DNT products and you can't beat them. Ease of use and clarity is fantastic
G, Thank you for sharing that — I completely agree. DNT products really stand out when it comes to ease of use and image clarity, especially for folks who want great performance without a steep learning curve. It’s great to hear that they’ve been consistent performers across multiple units for you. I appreciate you choosing Night Vision Universe, and I’m glad the gear is treating you well out in the field.
Well built and lite
Frank, Thanks for sharing that — I’m glad the build quality and lightweight design stood out to you. That balance is important, especially when gear is being used for extended periods in the field. I appreciate you choosing Night Vision Universe and hope it serves you well on your setup.
Nice and lite
Frank, Thank you so much for your review.
Actually had it on the shelf. Discontinued part and fortunately they have a few left. Fast shipping and a solid price. Outstanding
Thank you for sharing this — I’m really glad we were able to help. Having a discontinued part in stock when it’s needed can make all the difference, so I’m happy we had a few left on the shelf for you. I appreciate you pointing out the fast shipping and solid pricing as well. Thanks again for choosing Night Vision Universe, and I’m glad everything worked out on this one.
I was looking for a high resolution scope to use on several rifles and Bruce suggested the AGM Rattler V3 LRF 35mm. It was a good call and I am extremely happy with the unit. The LRF with ballistics data capability and the ADM QD mount makes it an excellent scope for multiple platforms.
I have bought several units from Nightvision Universe and Bruce is always available to answer questions and provide top notch product support both before and after the sale. He is my go to dealer for thermal and night vision. Highly Recommend!
Gregory, Thank you for taking the time to write such a detailed review — I really appreciate it. The AGM Rattler V3 LRF 35mm is a solid choice for running on multiple rifles, and I’m glad the LRF, ballistic capabilities, and ADM QD mount are working exactly the way you hoped. It means a lot to me that you continue to come back and trust my recommendations, and I take that responsibility seriously. Thanks again for choosing Night Vision Universe — I’m glad to be your go-to, and I’m always happy to help when you’re ready for the next setup or upgrade.
Nothing on the market better and night vision universe has the best customer service I have ever seen. the owner was literally texting me from the phone number on there website to stay in touch during order process.
Stewart, Thank you for sharing this — it really means a lot to me. I believe staying personally involved and communicating directly is the best way to make sure everything goes smoothly, especially with high-end night-vision gear. I’m glad the product exceeded expectations and that the experience stood out as well. I truly appreciate you choosing Night Vision Universe and trusting me throughout the process. Enjoy the setup, and I hope it serves you well out in the field.

Great guys
Hey Matt, Thank you! We really appreciate the support — always here if you need anything!
Great scope for the price, I prefer the l3 over the s3 but for the price it’s a great scope!!
Thank you for the feedback! Glad to hear you’re enjoying the scope and that it delivers great value for the price. The L3 is definitely a solid step up, but the S3 holds its own as a budget-friendly option. Appreciate your review and thanks for choosing Night Vision Universe!
Nocpix ACE H50R. I had purchased this thermal scope earlier in the year and it literally blows my mind. The clarity is amazing, very simple to use, and now critters have no where to hide. Bruce has amazing customer service and is quick to reply to any messages/questions. Will definitely be purchasing for NVU again 🤙🏼
Andrew, Thank you so much for the awesome review! The ACE H50R is an incredible unit and we’re thrilled to hear it’s performing that well for you. I really appreciate the kind words about my customer service — always happy to help anytime you need me. Looking forward to working with you again, and enjoy that new thermal!
Product exceeded expectations. World class customer service was provided by Night Vision Universe. Went above and beyond
Matthew, Thank you so much for the great feedback! We’re thrilled the product exceeded your expectations, and we truly appreciate your kind words about our service. We’re always here to go above and beyond for you—thanks again for choosing Night Vision Universe!
Good product, fast shipping, great communication.

Thank you
Kris, thanks for the continued business and support.
Haven’t gotten to use the DNT thermnight yet. I have set it up and ran through a lot of the options. you won’t find a thermal that also has night vision with IR illuminator, and laser rangefinder. There are so many features and options on this thermal for the price! I cannot wait to use this on some hogs!
Calbert, Thank you for sharing that — I really appreciate it. When someone has a question or is ready to move forward, I don’t want them waiting until the next business day, so I’m glad I could get back to you quickly even on a Friday night. Thanks again for choosing Night Vision Universe — I hope the gear serves you well, and you’re always welcome to reach out if anything comes up.

Looks good, fits correctly
Jeff, I’m really glad to hear everything fit the way it should — that’s exactly what I aim for. It’s always a relief when a part or accessory drops right into place without any hassle. Thanks for picking it up from Night Vision Universe, and enjoy the setup.
— Bruce
Looks great. Received quickly. Works well. Looking forward to using it to hunt.
I appreciate you taking a moment to share this — really glad to hear everything arrived quickly and is working the way it should. It’s always exciting getting new gear right before hunting season. Thanks for choosing Night Vision Universe.

Great little scanner unit! Love the size and the field of view is amazing. Compared to many similar units with 17.5 degrees FoV, this stands out with 19.5! Great option for scanning in thick woods
Only negative I've got is that the display screen is by necessity very small. As a result, the image seems a little worse than similar 384s thermals I own or have used. To be clear, I don't think it's an issue iof the sensor bring sub-par, but I'd equate it to the difference between using an eotech vs a red dot. If you're used to the big window of an eotech and then switch to a red dot, the image seems a little worse and restrictive. Your eyes aren't picking up any less information but your brain perceives it as "worse".
Thank you for the awesome review! That wider FoV really does shine in dense woods, and we’re glad it’s working well for you.
Great point about the display—smaller screens can definitely make the image feel a bit more restrictive, even when the sensor is performing exactly as it should. Appreciate you calling that out for others!
Enjoy the new scanner!
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.
— Bruce
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.
— Bruce
This optic is amazing. Day and night capable. In my opinion, much better than thermal and more cost effective.
Night Vision Universe is the best place to buy!
Hey David, Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts — I really appreciate it. It’s great to hear that the optic is performing so well for you both day and night, and I agree that for many users, a solid night-vision unit can be an incredibly effective and cost-friendly alternative to thermal. I’m grateful you chose to purchase through Night Vision Universe and that the experience stood out to you. Thanks again for the support — wishing you a lot of great time in the field with your setup.
— Bruce
Great fast service. Definitely buying here from now on!!
Hey Brandon, Thank you for the kind words — I really appreciate it. I work hard to keep things moving quickly so you’re never left waiting on your gear, and it’s great to hear the experience made a strong impression. It means a lot that you’d choose to come back for future purchases. Thanks again for supporting Night Vision Universe.
