    FYI, When cleaning your lenses do not use microfiber. Only use clean lens cloth along with denatured isopropyl alcohol. Also, do not clean your objective or ocular lenses with a cloth unless absolutely necessary because both interior lens surfaces have metal substrate coatings which can be scratched if not cleaned properly. When cleaning lenses he best way to remove dust is to use canned air or compressed dry nitrogen.

      Hey I have a question. You seem very knowledgeable on night vision. Can improper installation of an image intensifier cause the front of the image intensifier to be scratched? I had an objective lense way too tight and when I turned it, I think it caused scratches. Is this possible?

    • @airmedec135
      @airmedec135 Год назад

      @@santanagamingcinema it should only really be possible if there was some kind of contamination between the front of the intensifier and the objective lens. Both glass surfaces are recessed slightly. Do you have any pictures?

    Can i take off the eye piece without losing the nitrogen or do i have the purge it again?

    is there anywhere you can buy just an image intensifier tube?
    say, if i wanted to swap my green phospor pvs 14 to a white phosphor one, where can i buy the tube?

      A starting price for a pvs 14 is about $1800 but goes up to $3300
      You want to get a "gen 3" or " gen 2" photo intensifer as gen 1 required a IR flashlight (something you can't see with your eyes but is very visible to night vision)
      The cheapest route would be a digital night vision think $400 with IR illumination

    Great video, thanks--I do have a question, have you ever removed the ocular lens to install a LLI filter? If so, how did you take the lens off?

    • @airmedec135
      @airmedec135 Год назад

      No you don’t need to remove the ocular lens to install the LLI filters, they simply attached to the back of the lens. It depends on if you have the eyecup retaining attached or not. If the eyecup retaining ring is not attached the filter should simply screw into the rear of the lens.

    is there any issue replacing the tube in normal lighting , would that cause any damage? considering one is not supposed to expose this during the day time ?

    • @sjm4306
      @sjm4306 4 года назад

      An unpowered tube can't be damaged due to light exposure. The reason damage can occur when powered, is too much light could bombard with phosphor layer with enough electrons to cause burn in, basically degradation of the chemical that produces the visible light on the eyepiece side. Obviously if the tube is unpowered though then there's no acceleration potential for the cathode to generate electrons in the first place and so no electrons will hit the phosphor.

      Unfortunately if eBay doesn't have them I don't really know where else you could one. If you're looking to build with a clean tube; contact TNVC and they should be able to hook you up

    • @airmedec135
      @airmedec135 Год назад

      Snug is all you want. When you install the ocular lens you need to set the diopter adjustment then simply tighten the lock ring snug to hold the ocular lens in place.

    I'm stupid happy with it that I've been looking around to see how to disassemble it 😂😅😅😅
    Not gonna do that until I see that intensifire tubes are back on decent flow.
    Other then that thanks for the video.
    This thing looks to be stupid easy to service once my Manufacturers warranty is up.
