Well if Murphy is around the next corner he showed up at the worst possible time.
12 hours into a 72 hour hunt my PVS-30 decided to give it up. I purchased a refurbished unit from NVD out of Allentown PA. in Dec of 2017. This device has spoiled me, it made me a believer that the only way to shoot in the dark is with a 30. It has preformed flawless every time I have taken it into the field approx more than 40 times. The night it failed I had successfully completed a gear check a half hour before s/s with the objective lens cover on. Clear n bright. Then 2 hours later when I went to turn it on I could feel the switch just turn (no- click). The feeling of the switch actually engaging the unit was not happening. Tried changing batteries and re-cycling the switch. No go had a hard fail. Extremely disappointing. After reviewing my warranty statement I'm a little concerned / confused. If it is in fact the switch what kind of price tag would be attached to this repair. Sure hope this company has a fair customer service policy. I will give them a call in the AM. I have all required paperwork that came with it when I purchased this from NVD.
Feedback welcome
