Steiner Commander Thermal Imaging Monocular Summary
The Steiner Commander has always been a guarantee of ultimate safety and support at sea; the new Commander Thermal will not only meet but also further elevate this standard. Today, we promise you outstanding observation performance as always, along with technological innovation and reliability.
The Thermal device from Steiner offers the perfect equipment for all water sports enthusiasts, providing them with safety and precise navigation on the water as well as the most demanding challenges. It provides essential support when navigating during the day or in complete darkness. It also ensures clear visibility of lighted and unlighted buoys, floating objects, other boats and harbour entrances.
