Quoted: Very happy with them. I ordered a Wilcox G11 mount and Tor-mini from you last night. Is the G11 the correct mount for the included J-arm? View Quote Yes. I'm running the same setup. It's much more stable than a Rhino or Rhino II, but I'm still debating on changing out to a dovetail and g24. It leaves some room to be desired. The TOR-mini is great. Easy to use, plenty powerful, and tiny. My only issue is the battery, as it's fairly unique and not found at most stores. I ordered a 6 pack and haven't run through the stock battery yet. |

anyone know what the fedex shipping weight is for a PVS-14? I just got shipping info from TNVC but not sure if it's my NV or a few other things I ordered a while back.
shipping notice says 3lbs. |

Just a FYI, Jacob and Sam have built up pretty substantial amount of units with the latest 150 tubes that arrived from Elbit over the last few days. We have hundreds more to go, but we're chomping away at the enormous backlog!
Folks have been super happy with these units and for the $2350 sale price and even at the $2455 retail, the best bang for the buck...Oh and yes these new builds still have AUTOGATED tubes, aka Fake News was caught and handled from a viscous rumor. |

My order confirmation gave a 16 week backorder, has this been pushed left or right at all?
I don't mind either way, just not sure if I should expect it next year or this one. |

Quoted: My order confirmation gave a 16 week backorder, has this been pushed left or right at all? I don't mind either way, just not sure if I should expect it next year or this one. View Quote I was quoted 8-10 weeks and my PVS14 should arrive today, 13 weeks from order date. I’d say the 16 week is just a rough estimate particularly since TNVC is at the mercy of their suppliers. Clearly the number of orders was significant enough to cause some delays in the chain. |

Quoted: PVS-14 order placed 7/5, received today. Luminous: 2299 Radiant: 260 Halo max: .98 Burn in EBI phot max: .86 2x10-6 max: 69284 Center resolution: 64 FOM: 2060.8 Signal to noise: 32.2 only noticeable blem is seen here. ETA: got to use now that it got dark, there's a few noticeable blems that show up which arent a big deal, the one in the photo is bigger than I realized. Hopefully it'll be less distracting as I use it more. https://i.imgur.com/Gh3teyol.jpg View Quote Solid specs for $2350. Enjoy the unit and thank you for the business! |

Quoted: What are these rubber pieces that came in bag for my DTNVGs https://www.AR15.Com/media/mediaFiles/12422/0A6D37AA-A4FE-465D-8A57-16DCF4E69143-1632605.jpg View Quote Those are for retaining the bikini-style lens covers, which you should have also received. They go over the bikini covers while in place behind the lock rings, keeping your bikini covers in place. There should be a smaller set for the objective end and a larger set for the ocular end. ~Augee |

You can e-mail [email protected] to get a lead time update at any time.
Needless to say, I haven't got the build schedule on hand/able to look up individual orders on the forum, but the Sales staff should be able to help you. We are working to clear as much of the backlog as possible, and the distribution of lead times between systems and order dates is not necessarily consistent between different types as they're different lists. One of our builders was also mobilized for four weeks earlier this summer with National Guard to assist hurricane relief efforts in Louisiana. ~Augee |

I ordered my PVS-14 on 7/8/20 and received it 10/20/20
Specs are: Luminous: 2137 Radiant: 237 Halo: .79 EBI: .47 2x10-6: 69105 Resolution: 68 FOM: 1713.6 Signal to noise: 25.2 one dark blemish right in zone 1 Just based off other's specs mine seems to be on the low end for FOM and S/N. Is that just me being overly concerned or are these numbers OK. I've only had a brief chance to use them in a neighborhood environment so lots of stray light. Curious to try them out in the woods. |

After sending mine in for repair due to power flickering... TNVC gave me a replacement that dropped pretty significantly in FOM. Went from 2448 FOM to 1497 FOM. I haven't played with it much (< 5-10 minutes)...
