Compatibility
The manufacturer states that the Sioux TH 850 is compatible with digital night vision devices and image intensifier tubes of generations 1, 2, and 3. The illuminator illuminates the scene in infrared and expands the capabilities of such a device when there is very little or no ambient light. The remote control allows you to change the brightness without reaching for the illuminator itself, making it easier to operate when mounted on a Weaver rail. The Sioux Torch series includes 850 nm and 940 nm models – the former is standard for most night vision applications, while the latter remains completely invisible.
