      Essential what I said it’s either expect to alter and still be unhappy or just drop them bills. I could have a head to toe bad ass kit and instead I’ve got the beginnings of a good kit and a million little crappy airsoft quality bits of gear I’m atleast luck enough to have bought nicer fake crap that’s some what re sellable but still a huge loss.

    I bought a separate one I don’t see the guy selling it anymore but he altered a “opmod” nvg by adding a lens to widen the view, and tweaked a couple other things and then sold it for $100 more to me and for what it is it works pretty good. Was about as much as the 18 or 10 but wayyyy wider field of view. Butttt I see now there’s is not only a lens kit but a special mount for the 10 But looks like the lens should work for this as well. What really were you expecting. It’s 1/10 of the price of the most base line real deal peice of gear. It’s for airsoft orrrrrrrrr for someone whose technically inclined to upgrade it but someone’s selling what I have on a cheap ass ( I’d say even cheaper than these) lens kit and it’s works fine for 1x with light navigation and close quarters stuff. Any amount of research will tell you are lucky there’s anything 1x that can see at night that’s even available in this price range and has and option to upgrade as your next best bet is early gen 1 or maybe 2 if your are lucky and that’s still usually like 2-3 times more than these things. Take it for what it is or save up a couple Gs and there is a million small companies with guys that refirbish the 14s and make ‘em pretty sweet and get them as updated and running as best they can with whats on the market . If I’ve learned anything since starting this gear journey it’s either buy the expensive shit or get ready to either alter or be disappointed or both actually.

    Ive always known the digital PVS-18 was god awful. It's digital. I spoke to the factory manager for these things and he says that the NVG-10 is much better. Turns out the bosses of the two companies are friends. I still want one just to hand off to a friend to borrow at an airsoft night game so I can laugh at their struggles while watching them through my dual tubes.

    The way to possibly fix this issue is the correct magnifying glass being placed in front of the viewing lens which will give a wider field of view. They could have made something awesome by doing so.

      You get scammed either way because American products can charge $100s to $1000s above an already very large profit margin, although you tend to at least get moderate quality in the worst case scenario. Chinese sell far closer to actual value with a smaller profit margin but only a few products are actually competitive to certain extents.
