We’re always looking for ways to make building your custom setup easier—and more powerful. Today, we’re excited to announce a major update to the Custom Night Vision Builder: you can now add handheld and clip-on thermal devices from DNT Thermal directly to your build.
What’s New in the Custom Night Vision Builder

Nothing about your existing experience is changing—you can still configure your night vision system exactly the way you want it. That includes:
- Choosing your housing, tubes, and optics
- Adding a helmet mount, laser, IR strobe, or other accessories
- Saving money by bundling everything together
What’s new is the expanded thermal section, located toward the bottom of the builder. Here, you’ll find a new dropdown menu that lets you select between DNT’s most popular thermal devices:
- HS225 Hydra
- HS335 Hydra
- HS635 Hydra
These handheld and clip-on thermal imagers have been incredibly popular thanks to their high performance, reliability, and value—making them the perfect addition to your loadout.
Why Add a Thermal to Your Night Vision Setup?
If you’re new to the differences between night vision and thermal, here’s a quick refresher:
- Night vision amplifies ambient light, allowing you to see clearly in dark environments.
- Thermal imaging detects heat signatures, helping you identify living targets or heat-producing objects—even through smoke, fog, or light foliage.
By combining both, you get the best of both worlds: night vision for identification and navigation, and thermal for detection. It’s an unbeatable combo for hunters, law enforcement, and tactical professionals.
Save Money When You Bundle
Just like with every product in our builder, bundling saves you money.
When you add your night vision, helmet, laser, mount, and now a DNT Thermal Hydra, you’ll automatically save compared to buying each item separately.
If you’re the kind of person who likes to do the math, you can break down the prices in your cart—but the bottom line is simple:
When you build your complete setup through the Custom Night Vision Builder, you save.
