The latest arrival among the Konus thermals is the Fiery 3x-24x a truly compact and ultra-performing magnesium monocular that becomes the top of the range of the entire line. If from any catalog you can learn the main technical data such as the 35 mm focal length and the 640×512 resolution, there are other appreciable details that we want to highlight in this article to give you the perception of how incredible this tool is. In addition to the functions that we usually find in thermals, i.e. the possibility of recording photos and videos thanks to an integrated 32GB memory and the thread to fix it on a tripod, Fiery features six color palettes of warm white, sepia, warm green, warm red, iron red and warm black.
It is possible to calculate the distance via video analysis and the large 0.41 inch 1440×1080 OLED monitor stands out. Fiery is waterproof and it is equipped with the very useful fire alarm function which allows you to detect a fire at a distance of one and a half kilometers by setting the intensity of the senson between low/medium and high in order to recognize only the fire or also incandescent bodies or boiling water.
The fact of having two rechargeable batteries is a plus because if you find yourself in an emergency with the first battery exhausted, you insert the second and you can start again with hours of observation. In the box, in addition to instructions and warranty, you will find the double charger for the batteries with the relative power cable. There is also an additional rubber eyepiece covering for the eye with a gasket around it which is used in conditions of strong reflections to avoid feeling them on the pupil and thus have total protection. Here is a spare battery cap, the elastic strap for the thermal and a soft eco-leather case, shrinkable at the top, perfect for carrying your monocle while keeping it protected. In the hard case there is the type C power cable that can be connected to the PC to view photos and videos, the shoulder strap for the case with carabiners and the adapter for the L shaped tripod because the viewer has the screw for the tripod at the head under the lens and therefore the adapter must be screwed and allows a slight balance adjustment in order to place it perfectly horizontal.
When we go to remove the lens cap, we can magnetically attach it to our hand strap so as not to have it hanging with the risk of causing discomfort. As usual you will find the focus adjustment and the diopter adjustment which focuses the screen inside.
To access the battery compartment, a quarter turn of the rubberized cap is sufficient. Remember to position the battery with the positive pole always towards the inside.
The four keys are the traditional ones:
1)power on: press and hold for 3 seconds
2)the change of paddle: by keeping it pressed you access the menu
3)magnification
4)taking the photo: holding down switched to videos .
The viewer generates a hot spot, just connect to your phone’s WiFi and enter the password given by the last 8 digits that appear in the name of the hot spot network and then go the Thermal Connection app. What is immediately striking is its small size which allows you to keep it in your trouser or jacket pocket, the magnesium finish with scratch-resistant paint and its high magnifying power.
The very high quality of the image makes it our best thermal even compared to competitive models we have tested. Don’t let it slip away, choose an excellent product that allows you to easily and immediately immerse yourself in the world of thermal vision!
