The Prometheus is the latest and most technologically-advanced family of thermal imaging monoculars for the sporting, law enforcement, and military markets. The Prometheus product line is based on the latest FLIR Tau 2 VOx microbolometer core, and is composed of different models – each optimized for performance, price, and state-of-the-art technology that is suitable for a variety of uses and missions. The Prometheus is a solid state, uncooled, long-wave infrared, magnified, dedicated handheld thermal imager intended for day and nighttime missions. The 24/7 mission capability is only one of the strengths of the Prometheus line. The thermal imaging technology also allows you to detect targets by cutting through snow, dust, smoke, fog, haze, and other atmospheric obscurants. Unlike the use of laser targeting or near-infrared illumination to augment night vision equipment, the Prometheus thermal imager is extremely difficult to detect with other devices, as it emits no visible light or RF energy. The Prometheus is powered by two CR123A (2×3V) batteries. The Extended Battery Pack or 6VDC/ 600mA power source can also be used to power the Prometheus.
