Tricer-Z6 Bino Tripod Adapter

I want to start by saying I freaking love Tricer and everything they make. I’ve had great experiences with their gear overall—but I had a rough go with this particular adapter.

I run the Sig Sauer Zulu binoculars, and during a recent glassing session, they took a forward tumble. When they hit the ground, the battery pack ripped clean off the binos—with the Tricer adapter still locked in place. After a call to Sig’s warranty team (who, by the way, were awesome and took care of me), they let me know this isn’t a one-off. In fact, they specifically recommend not using this adapter with their binoculars because of this exact issue.

I didn’t see any other reviews mentioning this, so I hate to leave anything negative—especially for a company like Tricer that absolutely rocks—but I hope this helps someone avoid a similar situation.

Once mounted, the adapter feels a bit flimsy with the Sig design—not really Tricer’s fault, just the way the Sig binos are built. The battery attaches to the bottom using a relatively fragile plastic housing. If force is applied from the front, that housing becomes a weak point and can easily snap due to the leverage created.

If you’re running Sig Zulus, I’d strongly recommend using their factory adapter instead. Just trying to save someone else the heartache I went through. It would suck to have this hapen on a hunt
