Thermal Imaging Bow Sight

A thermal image sight is an attachment for a bow that enables the archer to see and aim in low-light or nighttime conditions using infrared or other light-enhancing technology.

Thermal image sights typically amplify available light (like moonlight or starlight) or use infrared illuminators to create a visible image, allowing for clear aiming in darkness.

Regulations vary by location. Some areas restrict or prohibit thermal image equipment for hunting. Check your local wildlife and hunting laws before using a thermal image sight.

NNPO currently sells the BA series of bow sights, of which the key model is the BA-219L, which is a bow sight with laser rangefinder function, and is quite versatile.

Yes, some setups allow you to mount both a traditional sight and a thermal image attachment, or you can use a hybrid sight that combines both functions.

The effective range varies by model, typically between 100 to 300 yards. Thermal imaging sights may detect heat signatures farther than standard night vision models.

Most thermal image sights attach similarly to standard bow sights, often using a Picatinny or specialized mount. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions to ensure a secure fit.

Yes, thermal image sights tend to be heavier than regular sights due to the added electronics, which can impact the bow's balance and handling.

Most thermal image sights are powered by batteries, often rechargeable or replaceable types like AA or lithium-ion. Battery life varies, so carrying extra batteries may be helpful.

Prices vary widely depending on the technology and features. Basic models may start around $1000, while with laser ringefinder or other functions can cost $2,000 or more.
