THERMTEC THERMAL RIFLESCOPE VIDAR 335 2.0 LRF

The ThermTec VIDAR 335 2.0 LRF thermal riflescope is a compact rifle scope with a 384×288 pixel sensor (12 µm, NETD ≤ 18 mK, 50 Hz), a 35 mm F1.0 lens with 3.2x base magnification and a 1200 m laser rangefinder with ballistic calculator. It belongs to ThermTec's VIDAR 2.0 series: short body, 1024×768 AMOLED display, two replaceable 18650 batteries and a 3-second start-up.

Features

• 384×288 sensor, NETD ≤ 18 mK: sensitivity to separate the animal from the background even with small temperature differences, with self-learning AI image calibration that keeps the picture stable.
• 35 mm F1.0 objective lens: 3.2x optical magnification and continuous 1x to 4x digital zoom, smooth or rapid, 7.5° × 5.6° field of view (13.2 × 9.9 m at 100 m) and detection up to 1800 m, according to the manufacturer.
• 1200 m laser rangefinder: single or continuous ranging, in metres or yards, plus a ballistic calculator: enter scope height, wind speed and direction, bullet weight, muzzle velocity, ballistic coefficient (BC), temperature and pressure, and the scope shows the corrected point of aim for the measured distance.
• 0.39-inch 1024×768 AMOLED display: 45 mm eye relief, 6 mm exit pupil and ±5 dioptre adjustment. Focus is set with a rotary knob on top instead of a ring behind the lens, so you can adjust it without moving off the target.
• Automatic and manual zeroing: 5 profiles (A to E) for different rifles or loads, freeze zeroing, 7 reticles in 5 colours (black, white, red, green and blue), 6 colour palettes and picture-in-picture (PIP).
• Recording and app: photo and video with sound on 64 GB of internal memory, recoil-activated video (RAV) and a Wi-Fi hotspot for the ThermTec Outdoor app, which shows the live image, lets you change settings and gives point-of-aim recommendations.
• Built for the field: IP67 protection, −20 °C to +50 °C operating range, 6000 J recoil rating, silent lens cover and Picatinny rail mount included. Two replaceable 18650 batteries give up to 18 hours of continuous use.

Why choose this model?

The VIDAR 335 2.0 LRF is the lightest VIDAR with a rangefinder: 628 g and 188 mm long. The 18 mK 384×288 sensor with the 35 mm lens gives 3.2x base magnification and detection up to 1800 m, and the two batteries last up to 18 hours, the longest in the series.

It suits hunters who want a compact thermal scope with rangefinder and ballistics for night hunting and observation at medium range, without a front-heavy rifle. For more resolution there is the VIDAR 650 2.0 LRF with a 640×512 sensor.

How to choose

The VIDAR 2.0 LRF models share the 1024×768 AMOLED display, the 1200 m rangefinder, the ballistic calculator, the two 18650 batteries, 64 GB of memory, IP67 construction and the 6000 J recoil rating; the sensor and lens change. The VIDAR 335 2.0 LRF (384×288, 35 mm, 3.2x, 1800 m detection, 628 g) is the lightest and has the longest battery life. The VIDAR 650 2.0 LRF (640×512, 50 mm, 2.8x, 2600 m detection, 687 g) gives a more detailed image. The VIDAR 660 2.0 LRF (640×512, 20/60 mm, 1.1x/3.2x, 1000/3000 m detection, 887 g) combines a wide field and long range in one lens.

Frequently asked questions

What batteries does the ThermTec VIDAR 335 2.0 LRF use?
It uses two replaceable 18650 batteries giving up to 18 hours of continuous use. The box includes 4 lithium batteries and a charger, so one pair can always be charged.

How far does the rangefinder measure?
Up to 1200 m, in metres or yards. With the ballistic calculator on, the rangefinder switches to single ranging and the scope shows the corrected point of aim.

How does automatic zeroing work?
In the zeroing menu select Auto-Zero, confirm the zero distance, press OK and shoot within the next 15 seconds. The result is saved to one of the 5 profiles (A to E).

How far can the VIDAR 335 2.0 LRF detect an animal?
The manufacturer states 1800 m. Detection means seeing a heat source; recognising and identifying the animal requires much shorter distances.
