The exterior is designed with an ergonomic grip that ensures positive handling during stressful moments. The housing is totally sealed for waterproof performance, and it floats for easy recovery in case of an accidental plunge overboard. An extremely fast optical stack delivers a remarkable line of sight with an enhanced range of detection and recognition. The integral infrared illuminator makes it possible for you to navigate through total darkness and seemingly impenetrable shadows easily.
Low or no-light performance is made possible by the a high performance fourth generation intensifier tube. This tube produces a remarkable 64-72 lp/mm of resolution. Fourth generation intensifiers feature a filmless cathode and an auto-gated power supply for superb performance under dynamic lighting conditions.
There are many different variables that affect the distance that one can see with a night vision device, among them the object's size, the level of details being sought from the object and the conditions of observation. Night vision devices detect much further under a full moon and clear skies than they will under a new moon and cloudy skies. Many different formulas are used to determine the statistic of maximum viewing range and the method of calculation varies by manufacturer. The important factors to consider when evaluating any night vision device are the intensifier tube's generation, s/n ratio, level of magnification, specified resolution, along with the clarity & light transmission performance of the optical stack.
All night vision devices sold by B&H have mechanisms in place to protect the intensifier tube from a sudden burst of bright light, but this does not mean that bright light doesn't damage the device. No matter what, bright light in any form is not good for the longevity and performance of image intensifier tubes.
