I live part-time on a pretty remote island that has a historical rat problem. One of my hobbies is shooting them at night with a Trijicon REAP-IR 35mm on a Savage B17 precision. It's fun, 1200+ kills over the past two years. Most of the town is abandoned and in disrepair. Sometimes, we'll drive around looking with the scope out the window, but this is cumbersome, especially when I'm hunting alone.
If I had a camera system mountable on my Tacoma that gave a 180* field of view with a screen in the cab, it would really up my game in locating the little bastards. Does anyone have any experience or recommendations on what systems I should look at? I would want something with at least the same thermal sensor quality is the REAP-IR, which is 640x480.
Before anyone jumps on me about driving around with the scope out the window, the entire road system on the island is considered "off-road" by the state. The island is 25 square miles and has a population of 30. People pretty much do whatever they want.
