As of Three days ago(Jan 7 - jan 8 , 2011) - FLIR finally released the FLRI SCOUT- HOWEVER, it is NOT THE H-SERIES

Look up

FLIR SCOUT PS SERIES

It's Not the same unit- they've changed it.

The prices? 2000 dollars for the base, 2500 for the pro-

It is NOT a H Series camera like the video- meanign they changed it( which is why it didn't get sold in 2010 like it was supposed to)..

The H series cameras all look alike- but it's Now shaped differently- stats are the same though.

this is awesome, normal night vision is kinda lame now adays since you can get passive night vision devices for really cheap and expensive active genII and III night vison devices are pointless unless your in the military, really it's just like having a flashlight people can't see

thermal is where it's at, see in the complete darkness and having every warm blooded organism glow, I hope infrared sensor become cheaper like ccd sensors in the furure

how muc hdoes it cost?

[SuburbanSurvivalsit]

I've heard the lower-end price will be ~$2,000 and ~$3,000 for all the bells and whistles. The $2k version should be fine for most, maybe a little more with a couple options. Uses? Hunting, security, etc. It's outstanding that this quality of night vision is coming in at this price point. Likely less in a few years, but still much better than the $4k-10k+ for similar devices currently on the market.

[teddycanary]

These are about the only videos on youtube I have to let buffer for a while before i can watch them. Any ideas?

[iComment17]

Happens to everybody mabe u just always watch it in the same time of day when its overloaded by many viewers.

[GearBuyersGuide]

@ teddycanary

not sure, this one wasn't in HD.. it was kinda long though..

I think iComment17 might be on to something with the "busy" time of day or something.. if not You Tube, maybe your ISP or something inbetween

[dakine425]

I swear you guys get to check out some great gear. I bet this is great for those Ninja missions.

What's the Iditirad? (spelling fail).

[GearBuyersGuide]

@ AndrewXAnarchy

Good question.. it's a big dog sled race in Alaska, they will have a lot of fun

[HL2NoLie]

@AndrewXAnarchy Usually takes place in the Alaska/Canada region, the Iditarod race is compiled of a trainer, and 6-10 dogs and are pushed through several rigorous tests. I recommend the movie Snow Dogs for more information and entertainment.
