I purchased a PARD TA32-25 thermal monocular last year to use as a scanner. I have been very impressed with the quality and features. No other product I could find at the time had the specs anywhere close for the price. The things I was looking for:
Small size
384 Minimum sensor
Non-proprietary replaceable batteries
Recording features
Good display
Waterproof
It has more features than I need or will use. I paid about $1600 last year and it has dropped a couple hundred since then.
My thermal scope is an IRAY RL42 384 and the quality of the image is certainly better, the price was more than double.
My understanding is that it, like many thermals, are made in China but PARD USA services/ warrants them CONUS. I don't have proof-just what I was told.
Just my 2 cents and sample size of one but I would buy again without hesitation.
ETA: When I purchased this from B&H, they included an AGM TM-160 thermal scanner for free.
