South African hunters, tactical operatives, and shooting sportsmen now have better access to world-class precision optics with the formidable cooperation between DNT Optics, or Day Night Technologies, and Engage Optics.
For many years, those in the know who know how to see like no one is watching have used the advanced, budget-friendly, and dependable day and night vision technologies specifically designed for local landscapes and environments.
DNT Optics, in its passion for “seeing in the dark”, integrates thermal imaging, night vision, and cutting-edge laser range finding with digital ballistic calculation to give users total visual supremacy under pitch dark or full sunlight. The company, importing and distributing exclusively in South Africa through Engage Optics, is revolutionising the world of optics with its rugged series of multi-spectral scopes, innovative accessories, and attention to real-world performance.
“At Engage Optics, we believe in delivering optics that are accurate, repeatable, reliable, and rugged – for a competitive price,” says Anton Prinsloo, Director of Engage Optics.
“We’re pleased to be the sole distributor of Arken and DNT Optics in South Africa, and we believe in the value, innovation, and precision these products bring to our customers.”
Innovation beyond light
DNT, or Day Night Technologies, is an organization dedicated to making advanced optics accessible to a broader consumer base. Their Thermnight series, comprising the TNC225R, TNC335R, and TNC635R models, represents a breakthrough in optical technology, leading the industry with innovative solutions. These multi-spectral scopes integrate thermal imaging and high-definition digital night vision into compact systems, enabling users to locate, identify, and engage targets with precision in any light conditions, day or night.
Each Thermnight model features high-quality sensors, laser rangefinders, ballistic calculators, and Picture-in-Picture modes, setting a new standard for performance in challenging conditions. Whether used for predator control in the Karoo or hunting game in the Eastern Cape bush, these scopes deliver unmatched confidence and clarity.
“With products like the ThermNight TNC635R, we’re not just keeping up with technological trends – we’re leading the way,” added Prinsloo.
“We’ve carefully selected gear that performs in South Africa’s demanding conditions, from Mpumalanga’s mountain trails to the humid KwaZulu-Natal bush.”
Tools that perform – Day or Night
Apart from the ThermNight product range, DNT’s Hydra line offers a versatile 3-in-1 thermal solution designed for hunters or security operators requiring adaptability in dynamic environments. This multi-function device serves as a handheld monocular for rapid scanning and surveillance, a dedicated thermal rifle scope for precise targeting in low-light conditions, or a clip-on attachment compatible with Low Power Variable Optics (LPVO) to enhance existing daytime optics with thermal imaging capabilities. Tailored for hunters or tactical professionals, the Hydra ensures seamless transitions between roles, providing unmatched flexibility and performance.
For those who want uncompromising optical greatness, DNT’s “TheOne” 7–35×56 FFP scope is a dream come true for a long-range shooter, combining precision glass and tough performance at a budget-friendly price point.
Designed for South African conditions
What sets DNT Optics apart is not the tech – it’s the commitment to reliability in real African conditions. From DNT gear and accessories, every item is chosen or tested to survive harsh conditions. Rain or sand, freezing cold or scorching heat – these optics are built to endure.
DNT’s accessory selection is just as impressive. It includes robust mounting systems, rechargeable batteries, IR940 integrated torches, and more. Be it a throw lever for the Zulus scope or an detachable IR illuminator, each component enhances performance and adds usability in the field.
“Not just are our accessories being extras – they’re a fundamental aspect of the performance and reliability of our systems,” Prinsloo explained.
“If your success in the bush or on patrol depends on your optics, everything matters.”
Next-gen digital integration: The DNT app
DNT is going digital as well. The newly-added DNT App supports both Bluetooth and Wi-Fi connection, allowing easy uploading of ballistic profiles, firmware syncing, and live scope control. From bullet drop calibration on the ThermNight to zoom setting on the Zulus HD, the app gives you total control – in your hand.
With up to five ballistic profiles, live picture-in-picture overlays, and scope pairing without sacrificing performance, DNT’s software environment complements its hardware’s field dominance.
Ready to go in the field, fuelled by local expertise
Whatever your role – a hunter gearing up for a night stalk, a security agent on duty, or a sport shooter demanding consistent performance – DNT Optics and Engage Optics deliver what you require – and a little more.
From national distribution to expert guidance, South Africans can now enjoy access to top-shelf technology without apology.
“Really, we’re enabling people to do what they love or get their work done better – with confidence, precision, and clarity,” Anton Prinsloo concluded.
“Day or night, DNT Optics makes you see it all.”
