The AGM Taipan thermal monoculars have become synonymous with two words: Reliability and Simplicity. The Taipan TM10-256 and Taipan TM15-256 are the great mid-level thermal monoculars for anyone wanting to experience the capabilities of thermal imaging. Equipped with a highly advanced 12 micron 256x192 resolution thermal sensor and a 720x540 LCOS display, it’s a great tool for hunters, campers and general outdoors enthusiasts who want or need to detect the presence of other animals or people in complete darkness.
