AttackPRO is designed to meet all major fire industry standards and is available for $3,499

SANTA BARBARA, CA – April 28, 2022 – Seek Thermal, the leading supplier of thermal sensors for the public safety market, introduces Seek AttackPRO™ – the new decision-making weapon of choice for captains and commanding officers. AttackPRO combines a high-resolution 320 x 240 thermal sensor with enhanced clarity and detailed colorization in a robust, heat-resistant housing.
