CyberNerd Posted September 30, 2008 Posted September 30, 2008 could come in handy, then again... There must be some school uses for nightvision goddamit
TechMonkey Posted September 30, 2008 Posted September 30, 2008 Was meant to be buying my nephew an early xmas pressie of a trambopoline..... Think the funds might be diverted! Any know if it is half decent?
Jobos Posted September 30, 2008 Posted September 30, 2008 Is this the type that will burn out if it gets used in daylight?
john Posted September 30, 2008 Posted September 30, 2008 hmmmm, and with my new job an Aldi is actually local to me Not that I really need Night Vision, but the 500GB USB HDD could be handy, perhaps need some for work, good reason to go out to Aldi
nytecam Posted October 16, 2008 Posted October 16, 2008 Bought mine for stargazing - it's great - my NVD homepage here Nytecam
tom_newton Posted October 17, 2008 Posted October 17, 2008 Anyone else been watching "big cat live" the other week? Made me want a NV device! I'm going across to Kenya again this feb... might see if I can manage to get hold of one of these, though mere mortals (ie. not TV crew) aren't allowed in KWS parks after 6pm. Trying to book into Lewa (of marathon and occasional TV show fame) but it is a bit on the pricy side.
Dos_Box Posted October 17, 2008 Author Posted October 17, 2008 I'll lend you mine if you'd like They are very, very good BTW. They are passive gen 1 devices with the option of using the IR torch to increase clear visibility up to 100 yards. At £89 they were a steal as they are usually near £300 for a device like this. Oh, and they are actually made by a US company called Yukon. Look them up. They specialise is night vision and sporting scopes.
stu Posted October 17, 2008 Posted October 17, 2008 Aye i got one too, i have one jipe with them and thats when using the focus at over 150meter its sensertive to .01nm so slightest tap and you can loose all your setting, IR torch is really good was shocked how well it worked
apeo Posted October 17, 2008 Posted October 17, 2008 Oooooo Not sure if i would use it practically tho.. and i have to save my pennies for christmas..
tom_newton Posted October 17, 2008 Posted October 17, 2008 I wonder if they will come back in stock at Aldi :-/
laserblazer Posted October 17, 2008 Posted October 17, 2008 Also also do cereal bars with rocks in them. I've just cracked a bl**dy molar
ZeroHour Posted October 20, 2008 Posted October 20, 2008 I want these: Hands on with some surprising $80 night vision goggles They are a toy but the review looks good and they are cheap. No idea if they are in the uk or not yet. Ohh to be a child again with those....
plexer Posted October 20, 2008 Posted October 20, 2008 I always wondered if it would be possible to come up with a night vision system based on cameras and small lcd modules and it appears it is. When you think there are cameras available with good low light sensitivity why not use those. I suppose this is what digital night vision devices are. Gen 1 night vision uses chemically coated tubes.
