NV & Thermal has the same losing investment as all electronic devices do. They are all obsolete within a few month's of buying them.
Unless you plan on using them all the time, it's really cheaper to just rent them. There are a couple places online that rent them, and you can try out many different brands and find what works best for you.
I've got a really simple digital NV unit that a machinist here in Texas was making several years ago. It has worked well for my usage in the fields at night hunting pig's. It's like looking at a backup camera mounted on your gun. I don't now if he's still making them, but it's called Resolute Night Vision. I think I paid around $500 for it.
I'd love to have a nice Thermal unit, but I can't see spending $3k - $5k for something that isn't going to get used all the time and loses value quickly.
