FAQs (NZ)

• Does Falcon Medusa work both day and night?
  Yes. Thermal imaging senses heat signatures, not visible light, so it works in daylight and full dark.
• How does the built-in LRF and ballistics help?
  The 1000 m laser range finder feeds range data to the internal ballistics engine so your holdovers match measured distance—faster, more accurate shots.
• What is the battery strategy for long hunts?
  The unit uses a single 18650 cell. You can expect around 6 hours of operation at moderate use. We include an extra battery so you can rotate and stay in the field longer.
• Is it rugged enough for New Zealand terrain?
  Absolutely. The Medusa is rated IP67 waterproof, operates in –20 °C to +50 °C, and can handle high recoil (up to 10,000 J).

Note: You can also stop by and view Falcon Medusa scopes in person at our **Ammo Direct Rolleston** store — test them, compare them, see the thermal images live.
