Well that was great video! You did that in one take I think...really interesting and informative. I've seen some FLIR images on other media platforms and wasn't exactly sure what I was looking at...I though they were just top of the range radar images...but know I understand. Thanks for the upload...subscribed!
I like the intent of your video, well spoken and edited! I think statements like radar works well in all conditions (certainly not true for pulse x band in rain unless the operator is highly skilled), and that a radar can see 40 - 50 miles are a little hazardous. Even at 45 metres (sorry - about 150ft scanner height), your radar horizon will only be in the order of 15 miles or so. Flat earthers will argue this, of course... 🙂 Enjoyed your video and agree with your conclusion for rec boaters!
Sending out light at night so you can see something as you are ruining the natural night vision of other boat skippers on the water is a good way to have someone shoot at your LED light bar.
Great Question @@claudiof.barbano5530 ! I'm preparing to do a video on Sionyx. My Summary: It offers 90% of the performance of FLIR, at 50% of the price. So, the value equation is VERY strong... It's an impressive technology.
This makes no sense as a comparison. 99% of boats with a FLIR will have a radar. I will never have a boat without both of them again. Currently have 3 boats with radar and FLIR M364C
