What it is best for

The TM25-384 is the wide-angle Sidewinder, prized by hunters who call predators and value a broad, fast-scanning view over outright reach. The sub-20 mK sensor makes warm bodies stand out against the background.

Key features and specifications

• 384×288 12-micron sensor with industry-leading sub-20 mK NETD
• 25 mm F1.0 lens with a wide field of view (~55 ft at 100 yd)
• 2x base magnification, 2-16x digital zoom
• Sharp 1024×768 OLED display, 50 Hz refresh
• 64 GB built-in memory, video and audio recording
• Removable 18650 rechargeable battery; carry spares for all-night use
• Wi-Fi and AGM Connect app, USB-C power, IP67, rubber-armoured body, 5-year warranty

Trade-offs and who it is not for

A 384 sensor and shorter lens make this a scanning-first tool, not a long-range identifier. For more reach in a Sidewinder, the TM35-384 or 640 models go further; if budget matters more than OLED and a removable battery, the Taipan 384s cost less.

FAQ

• What makes the Sidewinder better than a Taipan 384? A more sensitive sub-20 mK sensor, an OLED display, a removable battery, and a tougher, rubber-armored body.
• Is the TM25-384 good for calling coyotes or foxes? Yes. The wide field of view is well suited to scanning for predators responding to a call.
• Can I run it all night? It uses removable 18650 cells, so you can swap in charged spares, and it also runs from USB-C external power.
