Night Owl Optics combines a versatile optic with a digital NV system and image-capture capabilities to create their 2.6x41 iGEN NV20/20 Digital Night Vision Monocular. This device features a 30 lp/mm resolution with the ability to save images to an on-board card slot that accepts SD cards up to 32GB, or to an external device via its RCA video-out port. In low-light conditions, the digital intensifier system boosts available light for enhanced images, and under extreme darkness its built-in IR illuminator can provide a light source for the intensifier allowing it to pierce the darkest night outdoors or deepest corners inside.

The fully selectable system features a single multi-directional navigation button that gives you access to the intuitive menu-driven programming functions. You have control over the auto-off time interval, gain, display brightness, exposure, image and text color, with the ability to quickly reset the entire system to factory default settings. The iGen has a 1/4"-20 tripod mount for long observation sessions or when the exposure is turned up, and it runs on four user-supplied AA batteries.
