I used a Wilcox G24 mount with Wilcox AN/PVS14 bridge. You'll need MUM clip adapters for the Breach to mount into a dovetail interface like the Wilcox bridge
The PVS14 went over my dominant eye and the Breach over the non dominant You'll need to get used to using one eye at a time but it works pretty well once you get used to it. Some guys have changed the Breach color scheme to Sepia and used a PVS14 amber filter over the 14 to get somewhat of a fusion system  |

I run a pvs 14/breach with the Anker usb battery. Works for what I need it to do for about 4+ hours. Never ran it out of battery yet.

I also run this setup and love it. I don't think it's possible to get a reasonable culmination of the two though. I just do the one eye at a time thing.

Mine isn't here yet, but Mod Armory just restocked the coarse thread Flir Breach battery extender. It had been out of stock for a while...
To answer your question I'm running the KVC bridge with a 14 on my right eye using the OSS shoe and a K-Clip on the Breach for my left. I would recommend a bridge that allows for easy removal of the Breach, as it's pretty handy as a handheld spotter and you'll likely not want it on your lid for non-hunting activities. I would recommend getting used to the pvs-14 by itself for navigation etc before adding the Breach. I wrote a post about it on this thread: https://www.ar15.com/forums/Armory/FLIR-breach-New-to-NVG-/18-515680/ |

Having the ability to scan for game (hogs) with both I think (hope) will be a "game changer" -pun intended. Yes this is a pic I took while using my set up. Thats a man in a park looking back at me by a tree. You can see other heat sources like lights above and to the right of him. I think im 50 yards from the guy, maybe a little more. I scan with the Breach and use my 14 to navagate and get better identification of heat sources. Here is another pic example but much closer to the Breach. I mostly use my 14 and just scan with my Breach. I like the set up for what I do.  Attached File |

It's surprisingly easy to move around in the bridged combo imo. squint technique or overlay. I have walked a lot of miles under a helmet mounted thermal monocular in the past. It's totally doable but it isn't the easiest, and it's tiring. I'm lucky enough that I actually get an overlaid image with my bridged 14/mh25 setup though a lot of the internet posts say you can't. Even when I knocked my bridge out of alignment while trying to eliminate some adjustment slop the squint technique was considerably easier than patrolling with a mounted thermal monocular. For spotting game or threats in the dark there isn't a civilian available equal to the bridged thermal/14. |

Anybody who’s done this with a D-14 QD version and used both the dovetail adapter and Breach arm, which is better? I like the idea of the adapter so I can quickly swap between my other -14 and the Breach but don’t want to sacrifice functionality.
Are new production Breaches coarse or fine thread? |

I haven't tried it myself but I thought the sepia mode was a pretty clever idea My 2 cents is to keep on with the COTI for now and get a 640 thermal later as budget permits. 320 cores are useful but if you are going to use it a lot you'll appreciate the advantages a 640 has. Apart from the considerably longer distances you can ID animal types with 640s are just plain pretty and more enjoyable to use IMO. I've been a hard core REAP user for over 2 years now and I still smile every time I turn it on The Breach will get it done but if I had to do it all over I'd still grab a 640 |

I'm intrigued by their monocular device, but this one seems to leave a lot on the table if you're going through the expense of bridging a dual band system. No IP adjustment on a device with a little rectangular tv screen is more of an issue than it is for not having it on analog nv. I'm also not a fan of the loss of modularity that comes with that device. The additional $400 is well worth it for what you get with KVC bridge & OSS. I never tried the Wilcox bridge, but on paper they too seem a better tool for the task than the mod armory. |

I should be able to check out a Coti this weekend and it looks like the lower resolution(compared to 640s) of the Breach won't be too bad at 1x. |

I’m just going to buy both the adapter & arm and find out for myself. How I look at it- Pros- On the COTI, it's the only device you can put on the front of your NV and create a FUSION view. It's worth needs to be viewed for that, not for the thermal capability. The Breach and a 14 will not have a Fusion baby together, it's just not biologically going to happen LOL. On the Breach- it's a stand alone so you can use it on a bridge with a 14, or separate it off and give it to someone else in your team if need be. No way to really do that with the COTI unless the team member also has NV. The stand alone adapter isn't a great option. Cons- COTIs have always just had a 1 year warranty. But yes the units being released this summer do have a 1 year warranty contrary to rumor. However it's still a short warranty. That being said, a couple of COTIs I've had since 2011'ish still work just fine and I haven't experienced any problems with them. On the Breach- you will likely want to run it with a battery extender or Anker battery via USB port. Run time on CR123 isn't great and 99.9999% of the complaints I've heard about the Breach revolve around using a CR123 in the unit- sometimes if the cap isn't on super tight the unit can shut off intermittently. I have to assume there is just enough space for the battery to lose contact if the caps isn't down snugly. One customer reported tightening his "with a pliers" to get it to work correctly. Will-1 mentioned the Nox. We are super excited about this new thermal monocular/weapon sight. It is basically everything the Breach was supposed to be but ended up not being... Looks like it will do everything except act as a clip on. Good jump in price from the Breach but looks to be worth it. |

I've been a hard core REAP user for over 2 years now and I still smile every time I turn it on The Breach will get it done but if I had to do it all over I'd still grab a 640 The focal length of the lens has the largest impact.......... for example the DRI (detection, recognition, identification range) for a 9mm 320x240, 12 micron pixel unit is 470m, 120m, 60m and for context the DRI for a 35mm unit of the same spec is 1850m, 460m, 230m.................for a human sized object. The point being the DRI increases with focal length..... The reason the breach is effective is because it has a wide field of view for 9mm unit and a D of 470m.............and A 640x480 unit will achieve a larger field of view.........not a greater DRI. So in the example above the 9mm will have FOV of 24x18 whereas the 35mm unit will have a FOV of 6x5. Change that to a 640x480 unit and the FOV for a 9mm unit is 46x35 and for the 35mm unit its 12x9. |

It was pretty easy to switch eyes back and forth and after a little while it did start to kind of fuse together but the 1.5x made it a little wonky. I had to turn the 233’s brightness almost all the way down. @ARShooter91 To clarify, I had to hold the 233 with the -14. On the D-14 they’re not at the same level. The 233 sits lower than the -14. |

Would you think there's anything that changes when you view it the context that in i2 tubes that you're looking "through" vs mini tv screens that you're looking "at?" I sort of found it distracting to view a level image in a crooked tv screen. I feel it's a problem for movement and already limited depth perception that comes from thermals. I think optimal system performance usually follows optimal setup, But, maybe that's just me. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: K-clips are sold in a set right? So I guess I wind up with an extra clip? Correct. They are both offset different directions though so you may play with them a bit depending on what orientation you want the Breach in. |

So I guess I wind up with an extra clip? Yes. You made the best call to et yourself up for success. With your set up you'll have the option to experiment with IPD and swap sides around to determine what actually works best, and what you subjectively like the best for whatever reasons you have. It beats the hell out of marrying the type of mounts some pimp that give you no options for any of that. Its the equivalent of buying a KAC E3 upper and KAC ambi lower, then throwing a DPMS bolt & FCG in it. |

Quoted: Just dropped some coin. PVS14 and PTQ136 from JRH (thanks Robert!) Anyone running this setup? Wondering how it will do for actual movement vs spotting game. I recently picked up everything to finally give this a go. FLIR Breach (plan from get go was to buy from site sponsors JRH or TNVC. TNVC had them in stock when I was ready to buy plus the ARF discount - Thanks TNVC!) KVC universal bridge (used) OSS shoes (used) K clips (used) Mod Armory 16650 battery extender (new from MA) Mod Armory Breach dovetail adapter for my existing D-14 (new from MA) Clear Amber Night amber filter *ETA: new Breaches are coarse thread for the battery extender* Initial thoughts after less than a week of use.....

I forgot to add above that I've been running Sepia with GP -14's with a Clear Amber Night fliter. These colors work great together.
