SHOT 2019—TNVC Announces the PVS-14/PBM (Powered Bridge Mount) and SAS-E (Situational Awareness Suite-Enhanced) Booth 6502



Sands Expo Center, Las Vegas, Nevada—

TNVC is extremely proud to announce the release of the patent pending TNV/PVS-14-PBM Powered Bridge Mount this year during the 2019 NSSF SHOT Show.

The TNV/PVS-14-PBM was originally conceived to provide an option for military and law enforcement customers that already have large fleets of PVS-14 MNVD (Monocular Night Vision Device) and provide them with BNVD capability, offering improved depth perception and motion parallax, increased situational awareness, and PID range. While purpose-built BNVD systems remain a superior solution under most circumstances, it is not always realistic for large organizations to purchase brand new BNVD systems or pay for expensive conversion programs to rebuild old devices, especially when they already have fully functional and serviceable PVS-14s.

While the concept of bridging together two PVS-14s to create a set of BNVDs is not new, the TNV/PVS-14 Powered Bridge Mount offers new capabilities to provide the best possible solution for individuals and organizations seeking to get BNVD capabilities from their PVS-14s.

The TNV/PVS-14-PBM is a “drop-in” conversion for all TNV/PVS-14s, and most current AN/PVS-14s and other PVS-14s with a single AA battery compartment (TNVC can also convert double AA units to current specifications), and replaces the individual AA cells with battery inserts that connect to the central bridge, powered by a single AA cell and allowing for centralized activation of both devices without needed to operate each PVS-14 independently. The battery inserts also feature threaded ends to allow the factory battery housing caps to remain tethered and stowed to the device, requiring no modification of the host monoculars to be used in the BNVD configuration.


Unlike most bridge systems, the TNV/PVS-14-PBM uses two points of contact, the threaded accessory mounting point and the objective lens locking ring, to ensure the best possible alignment of the devices to prevent user-fatigue created by misaligned monoculars.


The TNV/PVS-14-PBM mounts with a standard BNVS-style dovetail interface, compatible with industry standard and issued Wilcox Industries and Norotos dovetail mounts, and providing greatly improved, secure and positive lockup compared to the current USGI “bayonet” interface typically used with the PVS-14 when used with the USGI “J-Arm.”


In addition to the onboard power supply, the Powered Bridge Mount also features the capability to be used with auxiliary battery packs, such as the Low Profile Battery Pack (LPBP) used with ANVIS aviator’s night vision system, and readily available through both military supply chains and the 1033 program, allowing increased battery life, as well as allowing users to shift some weight to the rear of the helmet, and serving as a counterweight.


The TNV/PVS-14-PBM also features independently articulating arms, allowing users to adjust the interpupillary distance (IPD), as well as swiveling one or both monoculars out of the way if the user needs to use their natural vision. This rotating feature, also allows the goggle to stow more closely to the user’s helmet, both distributing the weight more evenly, and allowing the user to maintain a lower profile when the goggles stowed.


The TNV/PVS-14-PBM is manufactured in the U.S. out of Delrin polymer and 6061 aluminum to the same high standards of quality, construction, ruggedness, and waterproofing as the proven TNV/Sentinel and RNVG systems.

The Powered Bridge Mount is currently available to all customers, and will also be offered in the TNVC Situational Awareness Suite-Enhanced (SAS-E) that will include the TNV/PVS-14-PBM, Ops-Core Mission Configurable Helmet Cover Gen. II, and a BNVS compatible mount, offering a turn-key solution for users who are issued the MICH/Army Combat Helmet/ECH, offering not only BNVD capabilities, but helmet accessory rails, and improved shroud and mount, and mounting points for strobes and other IFF devices without any modifications to the host helmet.

Please stop by and see us if you’re at the 2019 SHOT Show at Booth #6502. The TNV/PVS-14-PBM as well as the full SAS-E kit are on display, along with many other exciting new products and announcements for 2019!

TNV/PVS-14-PBM MSRP: $789, Dealer and Government Pricing Available

Is that a different bridge than what comes on the RNVG now? Is this something that can be retrofitted?

See the above questions! Need more info, please. I had already decided on RNVG’s and this just made me more likely to get them.

Offered as a kit? TNVC exclusive? You guys have someone who will build out with customer’s tubes?

Could you do this for any bino that people want a remote battery for?

[#14]
Steiner's new 2.5 RDS and thermal overlay system. User can dial in as much thermal overlay as they need. Also has outline mode, etc.  Overlay mode is just like what the PVS-21 does but without an add-on module but rather an all inclusive system of a red dot site and thermal combined. I have not seen this done before.

Still waiting on final pricing.

@TNVC when you say “Armasight” do you mean current FLIR/Armasight with USB ports, or the old school Armasight with the proprietary connectors?

Give us a video overview of the PBM please?

I am having a REALLY hard time deciding between the PBM and the new remote-pack RNVG.

PBM @ 28oz, flippy boi's, go halvsies with friends in a pinch.

RNVG @ 20oz, no flippy, no halvsies.

Are flippy boi's and halvsies worth the 8oz? THE STRUGGLE

Nothing to report yet, except it wasn't an IR illuminator. We already have the Torch Pro that has been out in the wild for a few years and still going strong for the community.

I like the external power RNVG but a port directly to the side? Was really hoping they would do a better angled port as this is going to be a pain for snag and bump damage.

Is there any batter packs with a 90 degree bend on the power cable?

You can fairly easily change the LEMO power plug on any existing pack to a 90 if you so desire it and have some solder skills.

Attached File


I built my own 2x AA packs and used both types of adapters. It looks like the orientation on the RNVG places the 90 LEMO connector facing down, so I'm not sure if that would rub or hit the IP Adjustment knob or not.

Hmm interesting, I guess time will tell as to how can get it to work or find something that will work. I’m pretty sure this being the only goggle like that that there will be small demand for a custom angled plug. I like AB stuff but I don’t think they thought that port location through fully.
