Thermal is strong when you need to find heat signatures quickly in darkness, cover or difficult backgrounds.
Night vision can show a more familiar image when IR illumination and field conditions are suitable.
Buying questions
Short answers for buyers comparing optics before payment.
Thermal is strong for scanning. Night vision can be useful for aiming or confirming detail depending on setup and IR.
No. Thermal reads heat signatures rather than reflected IR light.
Often yes, but accessories, IR and mounting can change the real kit cost.
