I have a set of ANVIS 9 goggles with MX1090C tubes that have just been serviced. They work great and have been awesome in the short time I've tried them. However I've noticed a couple quirks that I'm assuming is probably normal, but I couldn't really find any information on in my search.
The first thing I've noticed is occasionally when I flip on the NVGs, I'll see a wavy or squiggly thin black line when looking through them. They will disappear after maybe 15-20 seconds of being powered, but I'm just curious if this is normal. The strange thing is, if I look through the left tube alone, I will see the line, and if I then look at the right tube alone, I will still see the line in the same spot? I thought the tubes were independent of each other?
Also, I'm sure this next "quirk" has to do with the built in protection feature, but when I point the goggles at, for example, a fairly dimly lit light post (40w bulbs from approx. 100ft), the goggles will flicker on and off until I point them in another direction. I assumed the goggles would reduce power, but not flicker like that. Of course I have been trying to avoid any bright lights, but I wanted to find out what the threshold was.
I appreciate any insight as I learn how these goggles work.
