Is the TE211 good for night hunting?

It works for scanning close cover and field edges out to a few hundred yards. It lacks the resolution for positive identification at long range.

Does it record video?

Yes. It records video, and you can switch between white hot, black hot, blue hot, green hot and iron red palettes.

How far can it detect a person?

Guide rates detection at 550 yd, but expect recognition at well under half that in real conditions.

Yes, it carries an IP67 rating, so rain and splashes are fine. It is not rated for diving.

Expect the monocular, a carry pouch, a USB charging cable and a wrist strap. Check the listing for the exact bundle.

How does the TE211 compare with a 384x288 thermal?

A 384x288 sensor resolves more detail at distance, so it identifies game further out. The TE211 is smaller, lighter and simpler, which suits close-range scanning.

Our take on the te211 Pocket Thermal Monocular

The Guide TE211 is a pocket-sized thermal monocular with a 256x192 sensor, 10 mm lens and 1.2x to 4.8x variable zoom. It weighs 8.75 oz, is IP67 waterproof, records video and offers five color palettes. Its 30 mK sensitivity and 50 Hz refresh rate are solid for its class, though the small lens limits long-range detail. It is a budget entry into thermal, not a long-range spotter.
