My plan was to clarify it this morning, but then you posted again, and I admit I got bit upset. Plus, I also admit I'm having some problems understanding your questions sometimes. (I think I remember that you're from Quebec, so I've assumed French is your preferred language, right?)
As to IR under my base suet description systems includes Digital Binocular the ones pg.107 Starfarer's Handbook are capable of several settings IR being one of them
I may be working under a false conclusions
a bit of a trend of late
Ah, I see that now.
Okay, so your integrated digital binoculars increase your sight range by 25x, which would make the standard 920 feet sight range 23,000 feet or roughly 4.4 miles
without the bonus from using the attached vid-screen. (I'll calculate that in a minute.) I would still say that the max range won't work to full effect during the day, but it would be very useful at night. During the day, I'd cut it by half unless it's cloudy, which is sort of is right now.
EDIT: Okay, so I gave your PC a +2 bonus to Spot, which won't increase his visual range, but it will help him spot dangers as long as he has line of sight.
Also, I'd say, even with a cloudy day, the IR part of his binoculars would have it's effectiveness reduced by 1/3rd in his current conditions. So, he spotting distance with IR is only 15,330 feet or 2.9 miles. If it was clear and sunny, it would be 11,500 feet or 2.2 miles.
