I took the alpex 4K A40EL out in the field for a run.
For an old bloke it takes a lot of patience and a few missteps to get it right.
Connecting the phone app requires some mental gymnastics but is doable.
Once I got it sighted in, (easy) and got the ballistic calculation right ( less easy) it was a joy to shoot.
In daylight at the base refresh rate and rimfire ranges it’s great. Good colour and detail. The boot for the ocular is required during the day to prevent reflections, it takes getting used to.
At dusk it’s pretty good to about 60m in low light up to light levels that would prevent the use of a normal 3 - 9 x 40 scope.
It does get grainy and it requires a bit more tuning with settings to get the most out of it. It is limited by the size of the objective.
At night (I removed the boot) with no moon and a spotlight or a light with filters, it’s fine to rimfire ranges clear enough for target identification.
The automatic brightness and colour to b&w is intrusive and I found it was best turned off and tuned to the light source.
I haven't tried it under full moon conditions but using an IR torch, the torch is the limitation. I was using a borrowed torch as I wasn’t sold that this was the solution for me. The torch I had was good for 40 meters and wasn’t giving me issues with glare which I believe can be an issue. I had no problems head shooting rabbits within the visible range I had, I could see the reflection of eyes further out but was battling to properly identify the targets.
I now feel confident enough to spend the money on a decent IR torch to extend my range at night.
I think these are a great solution for anything up to a .22 Hornet; if you don’t mind figuring out what settings suit your application.
For a .22 rimfire with subsonics I appreciate the advantages of the range finder and ballistic calculator.
Really the only problem I have is I am going to need a thermal spotter to make the most of it.

These work great. Attached is picture of 800 mtr QRA target with a score of 60.7
Fast service and good price.

Very happy with kit and service

I have a short pic rail mounted on the rear scope ring clamp, the HTN Mount enabled placing the cross hairs exactly in the center of the torch beam, it might look a little tall but places the torch bell far enough away from the scope, any shorter and there would be a problem.
A good product, well thought out.

A skeleton rifle stock on the FX Impact M4. now. Able to use a rear bag off the bench now without any problems.

Fast turn around and order arrived as ordered. Thanks.
