Quote HistoryQuoted: Got my filmless WP PVS14 from TNVC Monday! Ordered 7/6, quoted 12-16 weeks. Delivered 10/26. Specs : Resolution - 72 SNR - 35.4 EBI - 0.3 Halo - 0.7 Photocathode Sensitivity - 2713 Gain - 61,879 Blems - None. TNVC was awesome, communicated well, and got my order out on time. As always, would recommend to anyone! Nice! That's an awesome tube. Put some sunblock on your eyeballs because it's going to a bright AF through the weekend, lol |

I wanted to go out and play but it's so bright I almost don't need NVGs lol. We did go out and watch our feeder last night though. Lots of bucks! |

Quick question for the TNVC folks on here. I ordered WP DTNVGs on 7/28 with a 14-16 week lead time. I now see that has increased to 20-24 weeks (per the website). Is the 14-16 week still a good figure for me? or should I not expect anything until the next year?
I know yall are working as hard as possible to get orders out, thanks for what yall do  .

But, I will say that all lead times are estimates and may run over slightly. |

I did however request some “hand select” specs. I called last week just to see if the timeline was still looking the same. I was told my unit had a ship date of 12/30 (estimate). That would put me right around 23 weeks. If you didn’t request certain specs your wait time could be less. You can always call as they are pretty transparent about lead times and where you stand. |

I ordered a GP PVS-14 from JRH on 10/15 and received it 10/28...impressive turnaround.
Elbit XLS GP Specs (Actual/Min) Resolution - 64/64 SNR - 26.7/21 EBI - .45/2.5 (MAX) Halo - .87 Photocathode Sensitivity - 2289/1350 FOM - 1708/1350 VERY clean tube. A few very VERY small blems in it that you can only see when you are staring at a white wall. A buddy ordered a tube the day after and received it the same day, with a slightly better SNR, I think 27.3 or something, and just as clean. |

TNVC always puts the customer first and takes the time to educate before, during, and after the sale. Knowledge and customer service sets them apart from most of the suppliers out there. I’ve been a customer for many years and will be for many more. Can’t really rate anyone higher.

Kosher Surplus
Dual PVS-14s L3 Unfilmed WP Sensitivity:2816/2684 Halo: .7/.7 EBI: .5/.2 SN: 38.6/ 36.4 Resolution: 72/72 FOM: 2779/2621 I bought a few items from kosher thru the website before speaking with him on the phone about NV. Got a tube in a 14 from him in July for a good deal with the premise of getting a second matching set. Fast forward to last week, got the call from Ben. Ben honored the quoted price for the second tube and I could not be happier with the performance. In the current market for NV you either pay with time or cash. With Ben you know everything about the tube your purchasing and having it next day is to me worth the premium. |

One time years ago I went out hunting mid afternoon. Had my 14 prepped and flipped up on my helmet. Flipped it down just after dusk, sat there for a while and thought "damn conditions suck tonight"- ran my fingers to the front and realized the daylight cap was on. |
