    Nox 18 unboxing and first thoughts

    Hadn’t seen anything about this yet except Wigs review so I thought I’d throw you guys a bone. Got my Nox 18 from Robert on Friday and had a chance to play with it some last night and tonight. First thoughts are is this thing is pretty sweet. It’s...

    Night Vision Nox 18 unboxing and first thoughts

    Based on having Trijicon NVision and Pulsar I would get either a Trijicon or NVision unless you have to have the video feature. No experience with the Bering line so I can’t comment on them. I think the rest of your kit are solid choices. I miss my 30 to be quite honest. Maybe one day I can get...

    Night Vision Nox 18 unboxing and first thoughts

    Haven’t gotten to check on distance yet. Maybe tomorrow I can check at the the farm. Set it up in the backyard just now. 33* and little temp change the whole day and sleeting. Pretty much the worst conditions I can think of for thermal. I will post the picture with the caveat that I don’t...

    Night Vision Nox 18 unboxing and first thoughts

    I suck at through the lens pics but I’ll see what I can do. Maybe easier with these since it’s a tv screen. Stay tuned.

    Night Vision Nox 18 unboxing and first thoughts

    Thanks for that. I had thought to mention that the Nox will sit lower on your rifle but when I mocked it up it seemed to be ok. That being said it might require or be more comfortable with a riser like an aim point T1. I think the ADM mount is the same as the aim point but the riser doesn’t seem...

    Night Vision Nox 18 unboxing and first thoughts

    Nice catch. That’s why I was trying to show you guys that pic as I have been worried about it since I first heard of the unit. Maybe others can chime in but to me it’s not that big of a deal with the Wilcox mount. There seems to be more forgiveness with the Nox than the 14 so for now I have been...

    Night Vision IR LASER SHOWDOWN (MAWL C1+ VS PERST 3 VS DBAL D2)

    I had a problem with a Perst 4 and they warrantied it without a hitch. Just shipping and waiting is a pain.

    Night Vision NV photography

    So any ideas on how to get the 14 and the spotter to work together? Swarovski STS80 I think the model is.

    Night Vision NV photography

    If I’ve told you once I’ve told you a thousand times if I can’t afford the UTC, I can’t afford liquid hydrogen cooled telescopes. Lol. PS Do you have one of those too? Comet Horta would be kinda cool.

    Night Vision NV photography

    Now that I have a 14, I’m wanting to expand my uses for it. I know it’s possible from wigs Nox thread but not sure of how it’s done. I’ve seen some videos where the 14 screws into the lens of a camera with an adapter but I wouldn’t think it would work so great as you would have the same...

    Night Vision Trijicon Reap IR Thermal Wilcox Mount Replacement for Red Dot?

    There was a time when I wanted to do this or put a range finder on there and never could really find a decent option. Only thing I think i could think of was to get the Wilcox flip to side mount and take the dlok mount off and put a rail on there and use it upside down. This was a while back so...

    Night Vision Hot or Not? Post your tube specs and vote here!

    Price Paid: $10 NOD Model: #5 tube Tube MFG/Model/Part: Aldi (German I think but assembled in Texas) It’s a larger tube at 4x12 so have to take that into consideration. Didn’t come with spec sheet except 73/27. Maybe that’s the FOM part. I’m new to this. Warranty is sweet though. I think I’m...

    Group Buys RAPTAR group buy

    I don’t get This but I’d like to understand. The Raptar ES is pretty much everything anybody needed except a POS illuminator and the decoder ring for the settings. I don’t think anybody ever said they needed a more powerful visable or even IR laser but they are obviously a bonus. It’s the...

    Night Vision Clip on thermal imaging device

    You really want a clip on for this application? I assume this is for hunting too which I would guess maxes out at 60-70 yards tops? Seems like a Halo or Reap thermal scope and a Radius or Raptar range finder would be a better option. Or even one of the Pulsars with an on board range finder...

    Night Vision Thermal set up help.

    Depending on where I’m at I like the 35 Reap and the 60 Reap. The 60 comes in handy when you need to spot way out there and ID is questionable. I usually get closer though and use the 35 on my rifle for field of view. I am getting a PVS14 to try in conjunction with a 1x Nox when they come out...

    Optics Factory L3 Filmless WP PVS-14

    So I’m going to have to find that many more pennies... Coin shortage and all that’s a problem. Maybe break into my dime stash but that’s going to hurt.
