Im starting to shop around for a set of NVG, and Im having a hell of a time sorting through the info. I read the primer from TNVS that is stickied above, but when I looked at their site, its like I'm reading Mandarin. So a few parameters for what I'm looking to do, then a few questions-
1. Definitely want a 2-tube unit/ goggles, not a monocular. I have friends with each, and after fiddling with them a little, I feel like its worth the extra money
2. 99.99% of use will be hog hunting in North Texas, so not extreme use, but not a safe queen setup either
3. I have an IR laser that can be used in conjunction if it makes a difference
Questions-
1. What are the differences between these units? specifically PVS-23 vs PVS-15 and SLG vs YG
2. Will those differences make any difference in detection/ Identification ranges, or durability?
3. Could I swap one to a rifle mount if I felt like it?
4. TNVC seems to come highly recommended here on the Hide, so I'm planning to order from them, is there another model they carry I should be looking at?
Im pretty much starting from scratch when it comes to knowledge on night vision, so help is appreciated!
