ATN OTS XLT 160 Thermal Monocular, Black, 2.5-10x 25mm, Built-in Rangefinder - Model TIMNOXLT125X

The ATN OTS XLT 160 thermal monocular is a compact handheld thermal imager built for hunters, search and rescue teams, and outdoor professionals who need reliable target detection and tracking in complete darkness or adverse weather. This 2.5-10x magnification optic pairs a 25mm lens with ATN's Obsidian Core LT processor to deliver real-time thermal imaging across a wide operating temperature range, making it equally useful for pre-dawn hunts, night navigation, or tactical observation when conventional optics fail.

Built for field use, the OTS XLT 160 houses a 160x120 pixel thermal sensor with 17-micrometer pitch and 50Hz refresh rate—delivering the thermal clarity needed to spot warm targets at meaningful distances. The integrated rangefinder streamlines distance measurement without requiring a separate tool. An 8GB internal storage lets you record and review thermal video footage (720×576 resolution) directly on the device, and the rechargeable lithium-ion battery delivers up to 10 hours of runtime per charge via USB Type-C. IP67 sealing protects the optic from dust, moisture, and submersion, while the compact 370-gram form factor keeps weight minimal for extended handheld operations.

Thermal imaging excels where thermal contrast matters: detecting living subjects against cooler backgrounds, penetrating fog and light precipitation, and revealing heat signatures invisible to night vision. The OTS XLT 160's selectable color modes—White Hot, Black Hot, Red Hot, and Color—let you choose the thermal palette that suits your task and lighting conditions. Whether you're glassing across an open ridge at first light, coordinating a search operation, or surveying property at night, this monocular bridges the gap between conventional optics and full-size thermal weapon sights.

At 6.85 inches long and weighing less than a pound, it's built to be grabbed and taken into the field without fatigue. The 720×540 pixel micro-display is bright enough to use in daylight or total darkness, and the 2.5-10x zoom gives you flexibility to glass wide areas and then punch in on distant details—human-sized targets are reliably detected to 850 meters and identified to 210 meters under optimal conditions.

Frequently Asked Questions

What kind of thermal detection range does the OTS XLT 160 achieve?

The OTS XLT 160 detects human-sized targets to approximately 850 meters, recognizes them to about 425 meters, and can identify specific features to 210 meters. Actual ranges depend on weather conditions, target size, and thermal contrast against the background.

Can I record thermal video and store it on the device?

Yes. The OTS XLT 160 includes 8GB of internal storage for recording thermal video at 720×576 resolution, so you can capture and review footage without needing an external card or computer in the field.

How long does the battery last and how do I charge it?

The lithium-ion battery provides up to 10 hours of runtime per charge. Charging is accomplished via a standard USB Type-C port, so you can recharge from a power bank, vehicle charger, or wall outlet in the field or at home.

Is the OTS XLT 160 sealed against weather?

Yes. The monocular carries an IP67 rating, meaning it's sealed against dust ingress and can be fully submerged in water without damage—ideal for hunting in rain, snow, or wet conditions.
