Good Night Vision Monocular

by D. Michael Sanford from on 2010-07-13
I wanted a good night vision monocular to check out the woods behind the house at night since I hear all kinds of sounds but never see anything. The usable visible accuracy of these monoculars are less than 50 yards, so if your looking for a real clear N/V scope these aren't the ones you want. Even at 50 yards, the acuity is not that great although you can make out whether or not your looking at a human or a deer. This monocular is the first generation (the 1+), when you step up to 2nd, or 3rd and 4th generation, the price increases accordingly. I doubt that most people would need a 3 or 4th generation unit, in fact, the US forces rarely use 4th generation, they mostly use the 3rd. The battery usage is minimal but I would go and buy a box of batteries to have in stock. They are not batteries that can be found easily unless you go to Radio Shack or a similar store to buy them. I'm very satisfied with this N/V scope. The covering is water proof as well as the controls. It is not heavy but it is not something you can put in your pocket to carry. It does come with a neck strap. I also has a auto power off to save the battery.

Works well for basic night vision

by M. Taylor from United States on 2010-02-12
The first unit that was shipped to me did not work at all. I returned it to ATN and they shipped me a new unit as soon as they came back in stock.The second unit works fine, the image you get is a greenish glow and we use it to spy on furry little creatures that congregate in our backyard at night. It does not have a great range, so don't expect it to "bring" images closer to you, at least not very much.For the price, it works well. I recommend it to anyone wanting a basic night vision unit.

eyesight works better.

by Richard Matusiak from on 2010-08-23
Was mine a defective unit ? put fresh battery in .. read instructions, do use binoculars on a regular basis I know how to set eye piece. This unit had green screen . thats a period . Worked when IR was on. Which leaves a RED BEACON for anyone to see You. Used with cresent moon and starlight. green screen..without IR. I called Company bought through Amazon and will be returning this unit. Seems there will be no problem returning unit, though cost of return shipping. But I don't have a night vision device which I was looking forward to using. So back to reading alot of reviews again, or maybe ill just eat alot of carrots hope my eyesight improves...

Lots to consider...

by Hitchicken from MD on 2010-04-06
Lotsa things to think about...Buy it from Ace Photo Digital, there's no battery. In fairness, while the ad doesn't promise a battery, the fact that it is a specialty battery, it seems annoying that a battery is not included. So be warned; order a battery with this item. It appears not to turn off, but it actually does. A residual charge on the light-amplifier seems to keep it operating even when turned off. Eventually, the charge will bleed off, the unit will shut off. I discovered this when it continued to 'operate' with the battery removed. No drain on the battery... I think. Focus is hard to do... as described by other reviewers, but with effort and patience, you can do a resonable job. It seems to work better for me if I take my glasses off. So much for the cons... The light enhancement is impressive and works great considering the price. The IR improves performance significantly. Overall, it was more than I expected. I'd recommend it to others.

yukon 4x50 decent little NV scope, does what it says

by Kevin D. Murray from on 2009-12-27
decent little NV scope, does what it says. Battery case is a little senstitive, had trouble with it powering up at first but kicking butt now.

Increible!!

Nunca habia tenido un lente de visión nocturna. Cumplió con todas mis expectativas. La resolución es increible y mientras menos luz tenga, mejor se ve. Lo recomiendo en un 100%

Night scope

by Steven Lefler from Kenai, Alaska on 2009-12-12
Surprisingly good quality for the price.My wife (and me as well) use this scope to watch deer, coons, foxes, and possums in our yard. The quality (gen 1) is not good enough to see details but the above mentioned critters can be identified.I also like sky watching. There are billions of stars up there that cannot be seen with the naked eye!

OK for the price.

by Alex Forrester from on 2010-04-01
Good: -Resolution is good, the gen 1+ tube gives twice the resolution of many competing brands and focus is pretty sharp for a 1st gen. -Excellent optics. -The unit is quite sensitive, neighbors' porch lights are enough to illuminate their entire yard in most cases - less if they are using compact fluorescent bulbs (less IR emitted). I spotted a black lab puppy in my neighbor's yard from 1/4 mile. That's impressive for a 1st gen. -This is actually a 1st+ gen tube and you notice significant reductions in light blooms and distortion - even in the periphery. Combined, they make the image much more useful. -Available attachments - esp. the camera attachment and lens doubler - make the unit expandable.Bad: -First unit quit after 4 days!!! -The built-in IR illuminator is almost worthless - .1 watts according to the company. You can buy an add-on for ~$100 but it's only .45 watts. By contrast you can make your own 3 watt illuminator for under $30. -Contrast needs to be higher; it often feels like you're looking through fog. Contrast is better on my cheaper Bushnell. -Brighter conditions revealed many irregularities in the tube, making the image appear speckled. -There is a design flaw in the placement of the proximity sensor. A finger will usually get close enough to make the unit say on when carrying it. This happened with all 6 people who used it.Overall: Price makes this unit one of the best 1st gen NV devices on the market. The device feels sturdy (even though mine broke) and all buttons and adjustments worked fine. I'd love to see more contrast and fewer irregularities in the tube. BUY THIS THROUGH AMAZON! Great price and no hassle with the exchange.

I love it, works good for money gen 1

by A. Benetoli from CT on 2007-10-26
I got one of this and I really love, its not the best one, you know, but for the price, I paid $91.00 used one. But it works very good out side, in closed area the bright light can really be unpleasant for your eyes. but you really can see in complete darkness so that is the point of the IR. I can see a clock against wall in my living room im complete darkness at 24 four feet. And the diopter has very good focus, very clear picture.This one is better than Yukon NVMT 4x50mm gen 1st (Mfr#24027) because I bought both and returned the Yukon.

Night Owl Optics

by Robert O. Brenner from Sunbury, OH USA on 2007-03-08
The Night Owl Optics monocular had a major flaw as soon as I started using it. The system uses high voltage derived from 2-AA bateries. Occationally the unit would create a large snap(arcing noise) and emit a bright flash of light from the eyepiece. If one is using the instrument, the light actually hurts the eye. I have returned the monocular to Night Owl for repairs. I do not know the result of the repairs as it is still in transit. They told me to ship it at my expense. Another strange requirement of the instrument is that the batteries are recommended to be removed if not used for 24 hours. Other than the above, the monocular has performed well. epilogue-Night Owl Optics did repair the unit and returned it.

Night Owl 3.1x

by Ismar Barouke from Arlington, VA, USA on 2007-01-15
Not bad, on the whole, for watching wildlife in the dark. Good illumination and nice balance between magnification, field of view, and use w/o a tripod. Sharpness falls off at the edges of the viewing area. I could recommend this to wildlife watchers who might be considering their first night-vision device. Since this was my first, I have no comparative information on whether there might be better ones out there.

It's really what they offer

by A. Rios from Medellin, Colombia on 2006-11-14
Hello, I'm glad with this product, I haven't try it yet outside my house but in a really dark condition it works pretty well, I need to turn on the IR button and clearly I can read even a sign on a bottle in total darkness. this thing really works

Not useful

by O.S. from Chile on 2006-11-10
I bought this item over a year ago, and it has never served for anything. Once I spotted a deer and turned on the "IR" illuminator, and the deer ran away - not too surprising, it is actually a red light and totally visible for most animals. Better use a flashlight. This is a first-generation nightscope, and has a very small range of utility: If there is a little light, the adapted human eye sees better, and if there is almost no light the device does not see either. 100 bucks is not too much of a waste, but if you are serious about nightvision you should spend about 10 times as much.

ATN Viper Compact Gen 1+ Night Vision Goggle with IR illuminator for Hands Free operations. 1x magnification with the option of 4x or 8x (additional lens and doubler required, not included). Unit is one of the smallest night vision devices ever produced and can be used as compact monocular or goggle (headgear included). Requires one 3V lithium battery, CR123A, included. ATN Corp manufactures and distributed the widest array of Night Vision and high quality optics in the world. We are a sales and market leader in the US.

Ideal for hunting, camping, boating, or surveillance, the ATN Viper expandable goggle system makes it easy to see in the dark while keeping your hands free for activities. The first-generation, high-resolution night-vision unit features a magnification ratio of 1x, but offers the option of expanding to 4x or 8x. More significantly, the unit is extremely versatile: you can use it for hands-free activities such as fishing or paintball, as a compact monocular, or attach it to a camera for nighttime photography. And even though ATN outfitted the Viper with a heavy-coated glass lens, the company managed to keep the weight down to only 9 ounces. The Viper fits around your head via a comfortable fabric strap, which includes both forehead and chin pads for security. The goggle itself, meanwhile, offers such features as a built-in IR illuminator, an automatic brightness control, an adjustable eyepiece, a manual focus system, and single-switch button operation. An excellent alternative to night-vision binoculars, the Viper is water-and dust-resistant and comes with a soft case. Specifications: Intensifier tube: 1st-gen +1 high resolution Lens system: 35mm, f/1.0 Resolution: 40 lp/mm Detection range: 150 meters Recognition range: 100 meters Minimum light required: 3x0.001 lux Focal range: 1 foot to infinity Field of view: 14 degrees Diopter: +/- 5 Battery life: 8 to 10 hours (continuous) Power supply: 3-volt lithium battery Dimensions: 5 by 2 by 1 inches (W x H x D) Weight: 1 pound Warranty: 2 years

• High-resolution night-vision goggle with magnification ratio of 1x

Avoid, this device is non functional, it is worthless

by furnic from Florida, USA on 2010-08-21
You can see better with the naked eye in pitch black than with this device. I am not sure what type of quality control ATN have, but it must be fairly low standards if this is the type of devices they are manufacturing.A dog in a dark night is visible from say 10 -20 yards with the naked eye, but use this ATN Viper and all you see is a blur. It couldn't even really define a huge tree from less than 30 yards, all you see is a big blury something in front of you. The only way to see in the dark with this is to pack it away and use your eyes.I tested this in various conditions, full moon, no moon, stars, infra red on/off, different batteries and overall result in this is an expensive piece of nothing.

Not too great

by John T from The Peoples Republic of Maryland on 2010-04-30
The product itself is a great idea. However, the IR light is very visible to anyone you may be looking at. Also, like with most Generation 1 models the depth perception is an issue as is the field of view. Hence, it doesn't work very well as a "goggle." The definition is better than many Gen-1 models. However, I've seen better light gathering capabilities (with/without IR) using a child's night vision toy for only 70 bucks (Jax night vision for kids). You may want to look at a generation two model instead of this one.

Don't bother

by Scott M. Hartman from Arizona on 2009-12-06
The headset was flimsy and gave me a headache. It was not the same headset as seen in the picture. Also, I hiked with it and could not see much of anything and the images were blurred. It was hard to tell the distance of things like trees and branches. It made the hike unenjoyable. Plus, I bought it for nighttime wildlife viewing, but it lights up at night, making it impossible to hide from wildlife in the dark.

Great toy for BIG boys

by Guadalupe Tofalo from on 2009-12-03
Ok, is not the top top of the line, but it is a great product for the price! I bought it for my dad and took it to Argentina to give it to him, he was soo happy! My mom keeps on telling me that at night he walks in the garden with it, just to play... he loves it, great toy for big boys.

Not goggles--a monocular--and defective to boot.

by Alesia from on 2009-08-13
There is no way you can keep one eyed closed during the entire time you'd be wearing this; when I initially did a search on Amazon it was for "goggles," not a monocular, so the title is misleading. And having both eyes open while using it isn't an option as what you see out of each eye is quite different. However, ours was defective so this is really a moot point: Regardless of which position the on/off switch is in, the device stays on as long as the battery is installed. So quality-control is obviously an issue in at least a third of cases with this device (given that the other two reviews were both positive).

night vision

by B. J. Garvey from black creek, wi on 2009-11-30
we had purchased these night vision binoculars and found them to be an awesome purchase. I would recommend them to others

Nice tool.

by Mike Samson from Sacramento,CA on 2009-03-23
Its an excellent night vision tool,very fancy.But just for your info,these do not work like goggles,they're binocs and they're magnified to one point(to say the magnification is not adjustable,also you have to manually focus,and the field of view is very narrow.If you're looking to go out and work in the dark without carrying a flashlight I wouldn't reccomend these but goggles instead.On the upside, these things can be used day or night unlike analog NV,this device has an external video input plug for like a camcorder so this would make an excellent surveillance camera for night,one of my favorite things about this device is it has a massive IR illuminator which will prove useful to someone who wants to spot something far away.

Good stuff, missing some things though.

by Tushar Tyagi from USA on 2008-11-29
Its a great product for the price. Good build quality. Decent performance. Simple to operate. I wish it had automatic focus.

Monocular not binoculars but still good

by neqchis from on 2008-08-30
This product is a monocular not a binocular. The secondary lens is actually an IR beam. I've had this device for about a year. It has pros and cons over traditional night vision. Unlike Gen1 devices, the Digital Ranger is not subject to optical damage when exposed to bright light. Image quality is distortion free unlike Gen1 devices. The device sports a jack to record video. I use a camcorder with no issues however, the video quality is very grainy in 0 lux conditions. The device is rugged but also bulky and heavy. It chews batteries when IR beams are on and continues to drain batteries even when off. Rechargeable NIMH's are a must. The performance is acceptable but range is limited by the power of the integrated IR beams. Only the high beam is switchable, the low IR beam stays on continuously when the unit is on. The high beam power can be adjusted. Lens is 5x which is fine for long distance but not good for close spotting. It needs a 1x wearable goggle companion. Animals do not see the IR beams but IR from unit can be seen by other night vision devices. Overall a good buy for the price.
