Pulsar thermal imaging attachment Proton XQ30

Pulsar Proton XQ30 – modular thermal imaging attachment for flexible hunting practice

The Pulsar Proton XQ30 is a modular thermal imaging device for hunters who want to adapt their setup to the situation. It can be used as an attachment on daytime optics or serve as a standalone observation device with the 5×30 monocular. The switch is quick and tool-free, right outside in the field.

Modular system and mounting
The mounting is done via the PSP quick-release adapter, which positions the Proton securely and reproducibly on the daytime optics. The thermal image is centered in the field of view without the need for readjustment. Removing and reattaching takes only seconds. The adapter can remain on the device even when the Proton is used as an observation optic.

Sensor and detection performance
Inside, a 384 × 288 VOx sensor with a NETD of 40 mK operates. The sensor is designed for reliable detection and displays game even in humid air or with low temperature differences. The detection distance of up to 900 m allows for early identification of heat sources without going into unnecessary detail.

Image representation and image processing
The image is displayed on an AMOLED screen with 1024 × 768 pixels. The representation appears calm and high-contrast. Additionally, the Image Boost function enhances edges and structures slightly clearer. With eight color palettes, the image can be adjusted to the terrain, vegetation, and personal preferences.

Handling, weight, and robustness
Weighing around 370 g, the Proton XQ30 remains pleasantly lightweight. The balance of the daytime optics is hardly affected, which is particularly noticeable during longer stalking trips. The magnesium housing is robustly built and waterproof according to IPX7. Rain, snow, or wet vegetation are not an issue in everyday hunting.

Power supply and connectivity
The device is powered by a replaceable APS5 battery with a runtime of up to 6 hours. The battery can be quickly swapped or charged on the go via a power bank. Photos and videos are stored directly on the device. Via Wi-Fi, recordings can be transferred and settings adjusted using a smartphone.
