That's almost exactly how much my Bump needs for counterweight - 28oz (just weighed it, includes Anker 15K). My Ballistic needs 22oz. I just did a shoot with the Ballistic from about 5PM to Midnight, and had no comfort problems, but that's very individual, so YMMV. |

Speaking of flashlight pointed at the ceiling, I know several people have been sporting rotating flashlight mounts like this. I can only seem to find the airsoft version currently. Are those g2g or is there a better mount that airsoft is knocking off?

Seriously the helmet setup weight does not bother me.
Single camera, power bank in the rear, IR flashlight on the side. I am not running with the helmet on. Walking with it does not bother me. If it wobbles too much I guess you need to adjust the chin strap and the nape tension. |

I'm sure this has been covered, but is the sport model worth it or is it better to save up and get the pro? I've been searching here and on the fb group and still can't decide, plus it looked like the pro model was out of stock.

I've been searching here and on the fb group and still can't decide, plus it looked like the pro model was out of stock. You can be the judge by watching the comparison videos. For the money, I believe it is a very good option. If you pair it with a cheap IR light it can give fantastic results. If you want to be more covert, then the Pro would be better (it requires less extra illumination), or go for the Gen3 PVS 7 or 14 or whatever your budget is cause it sky rockets. As with everything, it all depends on your scenario, needs and budget. But, remember, you cannot compare a $400 action camera to a dedicated night vision device developed for the military. You cannot and should not expect it to perform on the same level. |

It's really up to you my man - below ~a half moon (or equivalent ambient level) you'll need to click on an IR illuminator with the Black/Classic/Sport - does that matter to you? The Pro does true moonless - just got back from an OH shoot with zero moon, 100% clouds and they did fine. They are out of stock though, you are correct. |

The shoot last Saturday was all arfcom'ers with Gen 3 Analog, and more than a few commented that they were surprised how well they did with no moon and complete cloud cover. We shot out to 300 and both steel silhouettes were easily seen, the black a lot more than the white obviously (light colored sand background), and that's before hitting it with the PERST illuminator. For sure the analog looked a lot prettier (we traded gear) - but I tell ya, $2K for binos that worked that well in those conditions, is pretty cool. |

WiFi is used for firmware updates, and obviously to stream - which is probably a really big deal to the boating market targeted Sport (mount it outside and stream to the cockpit). If WiFi is off, it shouldn't consume battery? Also, with EVF AUTO-OFF set, battery life should be extended when using as a handheld? There are 1600mAh batteries on Amazon that work, been using them for a while (but just as a backup to an external Anker, worst case). |

The nape adjustment on my helment isn't as snug as I like, but a fix is on the way. Even without the fix, the chin strap does a good job. One thing I will never do is add needless weight anywhere on headgear. |

Were I designing it, I'd make modular endcaps that can include onboard components like display, battery, memory chips, or peripheral ports, so the device can be configured accordingly. It'd be flashlight-sized for an 'all inclusive' handheld setup, and considerably shorter & much lighter for goggle use. Put a standardized lens mount on the objective, and now you have an extremely adaptable unit. |

It does work with 2 CR123s though. Yes. I figured if I tighten the end cap too much it does not turn on. So I know back it off just a tiny bit. Do it under night vision so you can see how much you need to tighten the cap. A simple test be not screwing in the cap at all just make it sit in a tilted manner so it makes contact with the battery and the body of the flashlight. It should turn on. That tells you the battery and light bulb are OK. Then learn how much you need to tighten the cap. |

Well after 1 year of lurking in this thread and 6 months of deciding on not pulling the trigger on a set, I found a great deal on EE and got in on this.
Good enough for a lowly civilian like me. I have a helmet set up already...just need to affix an IR light on it and an Anker battery pack. Gonna take some time playing around with it...came with 2 bridges - Gaspain's MK1 and a LGS MACHOS; gotta see which works best for me.

I have no experience with Gen 2 or 3, but do have experience with poor man's Gen 1 monos and had been using a Gen1 bino setup with a helmet (Norotos Uni Shroud, RII and removed the bayo for a PVS15/18 socket dovetail adapter). So I have the weights/pouch already and the helmet I purchased came with knock off (but usable for both comms and ear protection) OpsCore RAC headset which helps with keeping the helmet in place as well. Looking forward with playing with these over Thanksgiving break. Old poors set up lol

While I realize gaspain- being the manufacturer- cannot guarantee fitment other than what he has experimented with, I can advise that I was able to successfully adjust and use an Aurora with both the knockoff Wilcox and a Rhino II on both an ACH and a TW bump helmet.
I will say this: I wear glasses so I will never be able to get the Aurora right up to my eyelashes, however it was very usable in it's position. |

The simplest setup without any modifications is a Wilcox dovetail mount plus a kiloohm (on Etsy) Mk1C or Mk2 adapter. That's it. Your helmet needs to have an NVG shroud, too. |

I just ordered an Anker 15000 Redux with 90 degree cords and also placed an order for Gaspain's MK2...figured that will eleviate some of the weight in the front. Another question: how sensitive are the Auroras to muzzle blast? I cant use suppressors in my state so im stuck with flash hiders. Im assuming Surefire 3 prongs and AACs are GTG? What about Warcomps? |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By revengeismine: Another question: how sensitive are the Auroras to muzzle blast? I cant use suppressors in my state so im stuck with flash hiders. Im assuming Surefire 3 prongs and AACs are GTG? What about Warcomps? It's digital, not analog. It doesn't have the sensitivity of Gen3 analog, but it doesn't have the same drawbacks, either. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By Torque556: What does the MK2B mount do that the MK1C doesn't? MK2B now has a slot to fix Wilcox geometry better, and has 1" more closer to the eye. The MK1C still works just, won't be as close to the eye, and it works well with the RHINO II. |
