I'm looking for a 1st gen night vision monocular for looking in trailer and RV windows at LCR.

It might do double duty allowing LaBunny and myself to get around in the dark when nature calls.

Why use a flashlight when the technology is there?

Anybody tried any of this stuff?

Why would you need night vision?  You never stay that late....



ETA:  Night vision kicks ass as long as there is some illumination.  If it's really dark your vision will still be impaired.

Another thing, night vision affects your depth perception.  Objects may seem closer or farther than they actually are.

Too late.  At least 2 WAHTF members have already called about that.

Dont waste your time with Gen 1...

I have play'd with all of the cheap ones when the fire station was looking to have something for night water rescue work..

I would not do any less than Gen II military grade, ( PVS-5's or the such) but the Gen 3 is where it is at.


You really will get what you pay for.

I want to sell mine off, and put that money at a PVS 14 type set up next.

Just the same, $2,000+ to wander around in the dark is a little steep for me.



Stick to at least Gen 2 or better..

Not all of us has a sugar daddy to give us our toys like you guys in the service. Besides he only needs it to find a place at night to poop not go hunting like you.

But you got to turn those back in at some point.  Unless you want the IRS coming after you when the report of survey doesn't go your way.  We can only have those while we are stomping rose bushes and talking bad to cats or something like that.


Houseplants, you people talk bad to houseplants.  Get it right, or get out.
Right houseplants, I almost forgot......


Yeah, you guys are the reason the American Horticulture Society has become a paramilitary organization.
