ATN ThOR 5 LRF 640 2-16x
The ATN ThOR 5 LRF 640 2-16x is a 640×480, 12 µm thermal riflescope behind a 25 mm lens, with a built-in laser rangefinder. On the Johnson yardstick that is an estimated 521 m detection and 130 m recognition range for a standing person; ATN quotes 2,470 m detection (human (ATN product page 2700 yd; ATN manual lists 1250)). Its 10 h published run time is 6th-longest of the 64 units here that publish one.

Box claim vs. what the optics support
One pixel of this unit sees 0.480 mrad (12 µm ÷ 25 mm). Two pixels across a 0.5 m human is 0.5 ÷ (2 × 0.480) × 1000 = 521 m. The box figure is usually computed against a person’s 1.8 m height instead, which is why it comes out higher. Full explanation.

Derived here
Estimated from pixel pitch and lens focal length using the Johnson criteria (2, 8 and 13 pixels across a 0.5 m human critical dimension), clear air, 50 % probability. A model of the optics, not a measurement — real range depends on temperature contrast, humidity and the animal.

What the spec sheet says
Read from the published specifications and this catalog’s own numbers — not from owner reports, which we have not collected for this unit.
- 640×480 core — 2.8× the pixels of a 384-class unit
- 12 µm pitch — the 25 mm lens sees what a 17 µm core would need 35 mm to match
- 60 Hz core — 20 % more frames than the 50 Hz norm when an animal runs
- Built-in laser rangefinder feeding a ballistic calculator
- 10 h published run time, 6th-longest of 64 here
- Records video and streams to a phone over Wi-Fi
- Warranty: 5 years
- NETD not published — sensitivity cannot be compared on paper
- Detection claim is 4.7× our Johnson estimate (2,470 m vs 521 m)
- Internal battery only — no field swap, carry a power bank
- 34.2 oz — 9th-heaviest of the 36 riflescopes here
- No IP rating published
- Estimated recognition only 130 m — inside typical shooting distance
