Product Review

The OutNowTech TITAN Monocular is a high-powered optical instrument yet is compact and lightweight, designed to be easy to carry yet robust enough for the trail. Not intended as a toy, yet easy enough for a child to use, with its single easy-focus eyepiece adjustment (no redundant dual-focus mechanism). Would make a great gift!

The large objective lens means the TITAN gathers light better than a small objective, which extends the viewing capability into morning and evening low-light situations. Don't be fooled into thinking that a purely optical instrument can give you night vision, for that you need an electronic light-amplifying device costing many times more.

The high power 16x magnification gives a greatly improved view of distant objects, while still enabling use without excessive shaking - the higher the magnification the more difficult it becomes to hold the telescope steady, since any movement is magnified in the view.

The outer casing of the TITAN is a tough rubber armor that can withstand knocks, and at the same time provides an anti-slip grip surface for secure hand operation. Focus is done simply by twisting the eyepiece - a simple single adjustment. The eyepiece also incorporates a fold-down eyecup which may make it more useful for spectacle wearers; with an eye relief distance of 10mm the TITAN is not designed specifically for use with spectacles but it may suit some spectacle wearers.
