Basically, what you have made is a very usefull(and creative at that) scouting ability with no idea's of combat in mind. What confused me at first was the point of the eye on the Nen beasts tale, but I concluded that:

1) The Nen beast can only exist while its third eye is open

2) The time it stays open soley depends on how you use the ability, as in, if you're with a group of people, you can keep only your left eye closed and tell them every thing you see, there for making the "I forget everything the devils seen once I open my left eye" limitation obsolete, or if you're  alone, you can keep both eyes closed and remember everything you see, but the devil only stays active for half as long.

I can see you've thought about this ability thoroughly, so well done for that(I don't mean to sound patronising, because I'm glad you're posting here again), which is why I only have one problem with this ability, that being this:

Nen is not intangible. The show has shows us time and again that Nen has physical effects on its environment, which is the entire reason that emission attacks, made of pure Nen, can be so lethal. The same goes for any show of ren. Even if your ren isn't strong enough to shatter a rock wall like Uvogin, it can still lift up a small gust of wind or make others around you feel the pressure of it.

Therefore I believe that this ability could only be accomplished by a specialist that has the ability to turn their Nen intangible.
