Prime 5x 1st Generation Night Vision Monocular
Product Description
Explore the outdoors at night using the compact and weather-resistant Armasight Prime 5x 1st Generation Night Vision Monocular. With a built-in infrared illuminator and a 1st generation intensifier tube, you are able to get detailed images, improved range, and adequate visibility even in complete darkness. The 80 mm f/1.7 lens system offers a tradeoff between a useful 3.2' minimum focus distance, notable magnification, and a wide field of view. To enhance visibility, the optical system also provides an 8 mm exit pupil, which makes the best of your eye's capacity to receive light in dark conditions.
For your convenience, the monocular features an ergonomic body design that allows you to hold it with one hand and adjust its controls, while focusing with the other. Next to the rubberized on-off and infrared-on control buttons, you will find control LED indicators for monitoring the device's status. The eyepiece is outfitted with a diopter adjustment and a twist-up rubber eyecup. The eyecup allows you to get a comfortable fit between the eyepiece and the orbit of your eye. This helps to stabilize viewing and to prevent leakage of the intensifier tube light, which may expose you.
The housing is water resistant and has a rating of IPX4. Its ergonomic design allows for a natural fit in the palm of your hand. All the knobs and adjustment rings are knurled in order to provide a non-slip grip even when wearing gloves. If you need to use an extra illuminator, flashlight, or a camera, you can attach them or other accessories to a Picatinny/Weaver mounting point located on the left side. For long-term observation, improved image stability, or multitasking, this monocular can also be mounted on a tripod via a built-in socket. Also included with the device are a lens tissue, soft carry case, and one CR-123A battery.
