Dunno, but thanks for being the guinea pig! Let us know how it works for you.  Ever since upgrading to the iPhone X, I no longer have a working PVS-14 photography solution.

It had a march 20th delivery date, but showed up yesterday.

Unfortunately I’m 15 hour drive away.

It works.

Fits the iPhone 8 with Otter Box Case perfectly.

Fit the PVS unit snug and center as well.

No problem. I noticed the price dropped to $16.56 now. Well worth it.

Ordered one the night you posted and showed up today. Fits perfect with my Samsung s8+ with lifeproof case, can't wait for it to get dark now. Good find!

I got some real nice video of the storms blowing through last night.

One thing I noticed is that the clamp that holds the phone in place will squeeze the volume button causing it to go into burst mode on the picture.

I have to not keep it clamped down so tight. On video mode that button is useless.

Now that I have dual tube, I was wondering what I was going to do with my PVS14. I just ordered this.

That is one of the best night vision photos I've seen.

If your talking about the one I posted thanks.

There was a lot of IR light behind me due to cameras on house!

its really hard getting a NV picture of the moon. It looks so awesome tonight and was hoping to be able to get a picture of it.

Your pics are amazing.  What tube is that? I feel like my iPhone X pics are garbage compared to yours.

As a tough critic, I give the iPhone adapter 3.5/5 stars.  Minus one star the fact that when cranked down, the camera doesn't sit perfectly flat on the eye cup.  And minus 1/2 star for the fact that the above problem could be fixed not for the clamp impeding on the volume buttons.  For the price I will keep it.

For how much it costs.......worth every penny. Fit my iPhone 8+ perfectly even with my case.

(I didn’t focus all the way)

Anybody with a Motorola z force droid try it?

Just a FYI, the are a few screen darkening apps that will make your phone screen so dim that you can see it at night, but it will still show up under nods.

Just in case you want to try photography with this adapter while wearing another set of nods.

I find I have trouble getting the adapter to lock onto the ocular end of the 14. I'm able to get everything together (iPhone 6S Plus), but I feel like I have to hold it gingerly, it doesn't feel too solid.

this worked great for me. fits both my pvs-14 and spotting scope.  I think this adapter will get a lot of use this year.

Finally something that didn't break the bank for NVG!

I noticed if it isn’t completely flat when you initially put it on the ocular end it won’t feel solid when you tighten it

Don’t be afraid to give it a few cranks either. Once mine started getting tiight it took more turns than I thought it would to get really tight.

Same experience with my caseless iPhone X, I'm sure it's fine but either I drop a 1k phone or my 4k -14. So I was babying it last night. It was really weird walking around but it worked and did its job. Thanks OP
