Had this myself, bigmac. I now mostly use an infra-red laser and the bunny's sit longer for a shot. Laser not the best, N1000 (5 settings 1-5) works for me

It's a bit weird that Jimmy, why should switching on the ir make them bolt.  Hope you didn't sell the Endurance mate, looks like you might need it. 

If the Pard 019 has no effect, then you need to borrow an 008 or 007 in case the laser in the Pards is not having any effect, I don't have one otherwise you could have borrowed that.

Stuff does get IR shy seen it myself with rats and rabbits .The trick I’ve found is to not switch it on pointing at them but rather bring it round to them from the side .Seems to work at the moment .

If you’ve ever seen an IR from a distance it’s very clear even for our eyes at night .Black IR is the next step I guess .

Foxes get IR shy too mate , as said Black IR is the way.

Best not educate them and get job done first time but inevitable if there’s a few about .

That's a strange one because the pard ir is a laser and the photon is a led ir it should be pard spotter spooking rabbits if any of them

[villaman 9,979]

Go thermal

[villaman 9,979]

Get rid of the shit photon , sorry jimmy but true  and buy a pard 007 . Mate had the same problem and tried different NV units including 008 , but ended up back  007 after selling it 

[foxdropper 17,092]

Bought the photon myself but soon regretted it when the f****r wouldn’t hold zero .Now use the 007 pard and love it .

Dunno what they are talking about black ir but if there meaning a black sun pill it a laser so no better off the a.s pill what's in T20 shudnt scare bunnys

[philpot 4,925]

A black ir is simply an ir operating at 850nanometers whereas the normal ir runs at 940 nan.  The 850 is supposed to have no visible trace but having never used one, I cannot comment BUT the 850nan ir doesn't have the range of the standard ir and from what I read, it is quite a bit less range.

I do not know if the camera in the scope / nv is different when using the black pill so it may or may not work for you Jimmy.  I think this advert shows it better,  the bottom left lamp is 850nan and next to it on the right is a standard 940nan lamp.

Hope that all makes sense.
