Pard Ocelot 480 Thermal Rifle - Scope 50Mm Lens W/Lrf
The Pard Ocelot 480 thermal rifle scope with 50mm lens and integrated laser rangefinder brings genuine thermal imaging capability to hunters and precision shooters who need to see heat signatures in any lighting condition. Built on an uncooled vanadium oxide sensor with 480×360 resolution and 12-micron pixel pitch, this thermal scope delivers the thermal detection range and image clarity serious field users demand—all without requiring cryogenic cooling or frequent battery swaps.
Unlike traditional day optics, thermal imaging cuts through darkness, fog, rain, and heavy brush to detect warm-blooded game at distance. The Ocelot 480's human detection range reaches approximately 1,800 meters, and the 50mm objective lens gives you roughly 3.3× optical magnification with digital zoom up to 8× for target acquisition and shot verification. The built-in ballistic calculator, fed by the laser rangefinder (effective to 1,200 yards), handles the math so you focus on placement. Recoil-activated recording and loop recording modes document your hunt automatically—handy for reviewing shots or social media. Six reticle styles in red, white, yellow, and green let you match contrast to your hunting environment.
Field-hardened construction includes an aluminum alloy housing rated IP67 (weatherproof to rain and dust), 100mm of eye relief for comfortable shooting, and a robust 50 Hz refresh rate that keeps moving targets smooth and clear. The Ocelot runs five hours on a single 21700 lithium battery and charges via Type-C; WiFi and USB-C connectivity let you offload footage and update firmware via the PardVision2 app. An 800×800 IPS display gives you a viewing experience closer to traditional scope shooting than most thermal imagers, while Picture-in-Picture mode lets you overlay day-cam footage if your setup supports it. Whether you're hunting hogs at night, surveying property in low light, or training on the range, the Ocelot 480 thermal scope puts heat-signature hunting within reach.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the effective range of the Pard Ocelot 480 thermal scope for hunting?
The Ocelot 480 detects human-sized targets at approximately 1,800 meters in ideal thermal conditions. The built-in laser rangefinder is effective to 1,200 yards, and the integrated ballistic calculator helps you make accurate shots once your target is acquired. Real-world range varies with ambient temperature, target heat signature, lens quality, and environmental contrast.
Does the Ocelot 480 require a battery or external power supply?
The scope runs on a single 21700 lithium-ion battery, providing approximately five hours of operation per charge. It charges via USB Type-C, so you can top it up in the field or at base camp. External power via Type-C is also supported for extended use.
What thermal and recording features does it include?
The Ocelot 480 offers six image modes (WT-HOT, BK-HOT, EDGE, RD-HOT, IN-HOT, SKY) to optimize contrast in different environments, plus recoil-activated recording and loop recording to automatically capture your shots. Photos save at 1,536×1,536 pixels (.JPG), and videos at 768×768 pixels (.mp4) to a microSD card. The Picture-in-Picture feature can overlay day-cam footage if your setup supports it.
