AB NightVision RNVG Ruggedized Night Vision Goggle
The RNVG is designed as the most rugged night vision goggle available. While most NVG’s are built with molded polymer housings, the RNVG features a 7075 aluminum chassis for unsurpassed rigidity and structural strength. All articulation points have been beefed up to increase impact resistance, giving users one tough goggle. Designed and machined at AB NightVision, and finished / assembled at TNVC, the Ruggedized Night Vision Goggle is ready to face the toughest customers and harshest environments! Traditionally, the weakest point in a night vision goggle is the joint between the optic pods and the bridge. This point accounts for the majority of catastrophic breakage when a NVG is dropped or hit. Part of this reason is that these joints are either polymer on polymer or metal on polymer interfaces. While there are some seriously impact resistant polymers out there, it’s hard to beat aluminum for strength to weight ratios. Both the optic pods and bridge in the RNVG are machined from solid billet 7075 (a material that is 36% stronger than most common steel), to give end users the strongest NVG on the market (not to mention a little piece of mind). Careful design and advanced machining keep the weight down to 20 oz. with a battery installed. They are coming in our builds with your choice of our very popular Mil-Spec L3 Omni 8 thin filmed green and White Phosphor Filmless High-Spec Tubes. We are also offering a DIY option of the housing only, (minus tubes and glass). To see our complete review and descriptions and to get your new RNVG is HERE ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |

Just a reminder, here at TNVC we build EVERYTHING in-house when it comes down to our TNV-14 NV monoculars and our TNV-Dual systems. We do NOT rely on a 3rd party to build our TNV systems and simply "re-sell". It's important for us to control all QC in-house.
In the rare event something may happen with our 10 year warranty, we don't have to waste your down time sending off your system to another entity to get repaired and have systems getting shipped here and there, changing hands here and there, etc., etc. Everything is done under ONE roof. It's good to ask these questions when shopping around and to ask the question if they build in-house or rely on someone else. Always good information to have before you spend your hard-earned monies. Thank you for all the continued business, we never forget! ![]() |

TNVC has long been an industry leader in Night Vision and Visual Augmentation Systems (VAS) technologies with our flagship TNV-branded Night Vision Devices (NVD), providing high quality finished goods to military, law enforcement, and civilian enthusiasts alike. TNVC, along with our sister company, Night Goggles, Inc., geared towards civilian hunting and outdoor adventure enthusiasts have already boasted one of the best warranties in the industry with our TNV and NGI branded NVDs, assembled from the highest quality components and tested in-house by our experienced techs, allowing us to maintain the highest standards for quality control and quality assurance. We are therefore proud to announce that due to our overwhelming confidence in our products and workmanship that we will now be instituting a full, transferable, limited lifetime warranty on all of our TNV and NGI Night Vision Devices, including the TNV/PVS-14, TNV/RNVG, TNV/Sentinel, TNV/MOD-3B, TNV/DTNVG, and NGI/PVS-14 units. From Victor DiCosola, TNVC’s President & CEO: It has long been established our TNV night vision builds are the best the industry has to offer. It was an easy decision to give our valued customers who spend a good amount of money with us, peace of mind for a lifetime of use. TNVC will continue to listen to our customers’ needs and ensure their requirements are always met. Thank you for your continued confidence in our products in which many of our brave men and women in uniform across America have also come to trust for their mission needs. This new Lifetime Warranty will be fully transferable from owner to owner of each device, ensuring that all users can remain confident in their equipment, whether purchased directly, from a dealer/distributor, or even on the second-hand market, allowing TNVC and NGI products to retain their value even after resale. This new, limited lifetime warranty will cover the system housing for the life of the product as long as the components are still in production, as well a 10 year warranty on image intensifier tubes. And just because you bought your device yesterday, last month, or even last year, doesn’t mean you’re missing out! The new warranty will be retroactive to all devices assembled after 31 December 2017. |

Some recent feedback from a an ocean bottom endurance episode! Not sure many "other" BNVD's would survive this. The RNVG's seem to be bomb proof, or in this case, some pretty darn good water proofing and that proof is below.
Good Morning Jacob, Here is the testimonial from our staff: TNVC, we recently purchased a set of the dual tube RNVG Gen 3's for our Fire Rescue boat's nighttime operations. I recently had a mishap where I lost my footing getting off our Fireboat in the middle of the night after a night call. To catch myself I had to let go of the NVG's. They slid off the boat and into 20' deep and saltwater. Unfortunately, we were unable to reach them and several free dives were unsuccessful. They laid 20' down on the bottom for 11 hours until we could get a diver to retrieve them. We rinsed them off, removed the battery and sent them back to TNVC to be checked out. They are rated for 60' for 2 hours so no one was sure how they would handle being underwater that long. TNVC called us a few days later and told us the tubes were completely dry inside. The fact that these NVG's can take that kind of abuse speaks volumes about the quality you get at TNVC. Please let me know if there is anything else we can do. Thank you again for your assistance!

Some further pics of the units and feedback from the boat crew! Not many BNVD's out there can profess a testimonial of such a harsh 11 hour bottom ocean excursion without permanent tube damage.
Quick update guys from one of the Lt.s from Longboat Fire Rescue! I saw you posted about our resent mishap with our RNVG. I’d like to provide a little more info and a photo. The device was attached to an ops core skull mount and G24. The unit was found by a diver the next morning lying on the bottom oriented just as it is worn. The ops core and G24 showed zero effect from the salt water immersion. It was during the offloading of the gear at the dock when it fell into the 20’ of salt water (battery in/unit off/objective lens caps on). The boat captain was moving to hand the unit to a member standing on the dock when he slipped and smartly dropped the device to prevent personal injury. We couldn’t be more pleased with the customer service TNVC has provided. The RNVG and the two pvs 14s from you all have greatly improved our capabilities on the water during night operations. I’ve been so impressed with the unit, I have placed an order for an RNVG WP of my own with TNVC. ![]() ![]() |

Also an important point, we don't grade our tubes as "B Grade", "P grade/s" this or that nor does the actual tube manufacturer!
Each of our tubes from Harris/Elbit or L3 in which we deal direct are the best specs out there we contract for, thus sometimes there is a wait. IF by chance Nightgoggles our sister company sells any lower spec tubes, they will CLEARLY state that without the play on the P grade, B grade or whatever word and inform you the consumer what you are really getting in your system. There IS a reason some ultra low priced dual goggle systems and some PVS-14's you may see out there go for $1999 and these systems have low FOM or something else within the tube specs that are very low. We're not a re-seller and have absolute CONTROL of all our tubes in-house and that is why we proudly offer a LIFE TIME system warranty. This is why we started building all our systems many years ago. When your shopping for your next NVD, be sure to ask where it's made and who controls the QA with your hard earned dollar. Also ask if the system goes down, who repairs it and who might be the 3rd party you have to send your system to. Another reason we build everything in-house in the unlikely event with any of our systems. We do have an under 1% return rate based on thousands of systems proudly built for our valued customers. We're here to give you the best customer service without the middleman talk and the best gear for your money. Call or write us anytime, we're here to educate first and foremost and thank you for all the amazing business! ![]() |

We were told recently we are now the largest L3/Harris distributor for NV tube sales in North America. We wear that hat proudly and we want to thank each and every one of our customers who trust our build process for both our PVS-14's and goggle systems. We still build custom for each order (never charge you extra for higher specs you may desire), all in-house built and never depend on someone else to build or ship our gear! When you spend thousands of dollars on gear, you expect the best and not a middle man to handle your expensive investments.
Thank you. |

One other point about our commitment to you. We're also not a commission based NV company, where you pay us a certain commission fee and then we send you to the real manufacturer to pay the rest of the monies due! We have never operated this way, nor will will ever expect our customers accept that sort of service. When you pay thousands of dollars, you should expect a one stop shop with a in-house warranty that also does not get re-routed to another manufacture.
Thank you for all your continued business and we will always strive to be the best customer service driven NV company for your trust in us! |

Just an update, we've been offering the RNVG's since release from over 3 years ago and STILL build them in-house with our contract L3 and Elbit tubes, while NightGoggles is utilizing Photonis Echo when available. We did not just start selling these units to "jump in the market". We know this product very well and worked closely with AB Night Vision for a long time. We also offer a LIFE TIME System Warranty on RNVG's!
Thank you for all the business with the RNVG's, it's still one of the most durable BNVD's out there! |
