I have a good 10160 tube in a cobbled together set up. Is there a decent pvs-14 type setup that will take my tube? I only want to change mine due to the fact it is pretty much just a hand held unit. What do you guys recommend?
Thanks

You can drop it right in any PVS-14 housing. The gain knob won't work since you don't have the gain pigtail.
Super easy to do. Just unscrew the eyepiece, remove the tube retaining ring, slide in the tube lining up the notch in the tube with the stud inside (serial# facing the eyepiece), pop in the light pipe (ETA: it'll have "up" on the side to go up), screw in retaining ring, put eyepiece back on. Use some keyboard duster before you put the eyepiece on. Be prepared for a small piece of debris to show up and repeat removing the eyepiece, cleaning it off, and putting it back on.
