The integrated 905 nm laser rangefinder in the Pulsar Symbion LRF DXR50 640 provides distance measurements up to 1,640.42 yards with ±1 m (approximately ±1.1 yards) accuracy. This allows you to get precise ranging for ballistic calculations or navigation without needing to carry a separate device.

Can I use these binoculars in heavy rain or extreme cold?

Yes. The device features a rugged magnesium alloy housing that is IP67-rated, meaning it is protected against dust and water immersion. It is designed to operate reliably in temperatures ranging from -25 °C to +50 °C, making it suitable for harsh field use.

How is the battery life handled for long trips in the field?

The system uses removable APS5 batteries, so you can swap them out during extended sessions. For additional flexibility, the device also supports external power via USB-C, ensuring you aren't reliant on a single fixed power source while in the field.

Can I record what I see through the binoculars for later review?

The Symbion records video, photos and audio to 64 GB of internal storage. Wi-Fi and Stream Vision 2 support compatible streaming and file transfer. Bluetooth is used for compatible device/app functions; it is not the documented video-file transfer method.

Pulsar Symbion LRF DXR50 640 4x Multispectral Thermal Binocular 640x480 12um 50Hz WiFi (PL77458)

The Pulsar Symbion series is a family of multispectral binoculars designed for users who need both thermal detection and digital identification in a single, integrated platform. By combining full-color digital imaging, digital night vision, and thermal detection with a laser rangefinder in a single, field-ready system, the Symbion allows users to detect heat signatures, identify targets visually, and measure distance without switching devices.

Both Symbion models feature a magnesium alloy housing rated IP67 for protection against dust, water immersion, and hard field use. A 1920×1080 AMOLED display presents a clear, high-contrast image across day, night, and low-light conditions. The dual-channel design allows users to run thermal and digital views independently or combine them using Picture-in-Picture and multispectral overlay modes, providing context that thermal or digital alone cannot offer.

The Symbion LRF DXR50 uses a 640×480 thermal sensor with <35 mK NETD, prioritizing thermal sensitivity and detail in challenging conditions such as fog, rain, or dense vegetation, while the Symbion LRF DXT50 steps up to a 1280×1024 thermal sensor, delivering higher thermal resolution for long-range observation and improved target discrimination at distance. Both models share a 50 mm F/1.0 thermal lens and a digital optical channel with up to 26× magnification.

A built-in 905 nm laser rangefinder provides distance measurements out to 1,640.42 yards with ±1 m accuracy (approximately ±1.1 yards), supporting precise ranging for observation, navigation, or ballistic calculation when paired with the Stream Vision Ballistics app. Internal video and photo recording with audio capture allows users to document observations directly to onboard memory, while Wi-Fi and Bluetooth enable live streaming and data transfer to mobile devices.

Powered by a removable APS5 battery system with USB-C external power support, the Symbion is built for extended field sessions without reliance on fixed power sources. Manual, automatic, and semi-automatic calibration options allow users to adapt image performance to changing environmental conditions in real time.

I haven’t had it long enough to thoroughly test it out

I haven’t had it long enough to thoroughly test it out. So far it seems pretty good during the day, no problem hitting a 4” gong at 300 yards. At night with a decent IR light, 300 yards is no problem for coyotes. I like the different color palettes that it has for the night mode. I have purchased multiple products from NVU and as always, great customer service.

Hi Phillip, Thank you for another great review and, more importantly, for continuing to trust Night Vision Universe with your purchases! It's great to hear the unit is performing well so far, both during the day and at night. Having that kind of performance at 300 yards, along with the different night vision color palettes, certainly makes for a versatile setup. I look forward to hearing your thoughts once you've had more time to put it through its paces. I especially appreciate your continued business and the kind words about my customer service. Repeat customers like you are a big part of what makes running this business so rewarding!
