Daytime thermal scanner

[Armchairhunter]

Thinking about getting a thermal scanner for daytime calling, especially lions and bobcats. No night usage. Lions are hard enough to see, thought it would help to spot them in the rocks.

Thoughts on what might be good for those of you doing this already? Really don’t want to spend an arm and a leg, but don’t want to get something that is worthless either.

I know 640 is the new hotness, but do you really need that during the day? I can see the higher res being important for target identification at night, but during the day you just need to see something, then you are pulling up the binos or rifle scope.

Any suggestions would be appreciated!
