Hello and a big welcome to the forum

Welcome!

I would go with 940nm Wraith from Ludicrous Lumens, but members are reporting white-out with Digisight/Digex even with the high adjustablity of Wraith. Either Digisight/Digex is that much more sensitive than Yukon Sightline (doubt it HW-wise, maybe something SW-wise) or we're using it differently / have different expectations.

Didnt understand this part :/

I use Yukon Sightline. The hardware in Digisight/Digex is not so different that it would explain why one person experiences no white-out and other finds so bad white-out that the product is almost unusable. Pulsar does have more refined software, there's advanced algorithms like Sumlight, they might have put so much weight on low light performance that the white-out is significantly more problematic than with Yukon.

On the usage part, I try to use minimal IR output, tweak scope settings for best picture and I'm happy to narrow the beam to e.g. work around near vegetation or adjust it higher than reticle to avoid foreground glare on flat surfaces like fields. I get the feeling some people are not happy with tweaking and want to use full FOV beam and throw large amounts of IR at the target and so these more sensitive devices (compared to Pard and other FullHD/4k devices) struggle to give a balanced view.
