What you have there is essentially an enhanced video camera that present whatever the sensor.sees as a video image and that is true for most digital night vision devices. Military grade, as you call it, NVD’s are image intensifier tubes that actually amplify the incoming photons via a micro channel plate and phosphorus screen which makes for amazingly detailed views of the night sky. We use them at my.MedEvac job and the crew and I always scanning the night sky for meteors, satellites, and of course the exceptional Milky Way views as we are returning home from a mission. I might ad that the ANVIS-9’s we use are wonderful for spotting low clouds and kept us out of trouble on many an overcast night. Clear Sky’s!
I prefer the night vision device over binoculars any day…because you can record what you are viewing easily. It will probably take some time before you guys realize how extremely lucky we are to have these wonderful digital night vision devices that are available now to the public. From 1989 to 1999 ,and then a few times after my military service, I used night vision devices priced anywhere from $400.00 to $50,000 and the digital night vision devices ,a good number of them, are far more effective than what my troops and I had back then. Also, if you are in a UAP hotspot…you can see some amazing things. You will also be able to record what you are looking at. I now have more than 30 excellent recordings that absolutely nobody can explain away. I’m using nothing more than the off-brand version of the NV400-B model of the same device in this excellent video of yours which is quite possibly the most honest video that I’ve come across on RUclips thus far. Cheers! 👍🏻🍻
I have the unbranded version of the NV400-B model which is the same thing from Creative XP in this video. I like everything it does do ,but I wish to share that there is something else it is good at. It’s excellent for spotting and recording UAP activity. I now have more than 30 excellent recordings of things that are truly bizarre.👍🏻🍻🕯
I use this Glass Condor Pro almost every clear & partially clear night. Your videos match exactly what I see with mine. I can track brighter reflective sats and some stars through foggy nights and low-density clouds. Most casual users get mislead by marketing tactics. True infrared is thermographic with low-pass lenses that pass 4000-17000 nm wavelength light to a typically Vanadium Oxide sensor. Low-light “infrared” viewers are NEAR-infrared whose sensors detect as low as 850 nm plus visible light 400-700nm. These sensors have the IR-cut filter removed to detect the 850nm range. True infrared thermographic consumer viewers will not see thermal wavelengths of stars due to scattering and absorption of the starlight by water vapor and clouds. However the three-dimensional depth and detail the thermographic viewers bring out in cloud formations is a wow! factor.
The problem with IR mode with these binoculars is that they have a bright IR LED shining out, and they expect to be able to see the IR light bouncing back. Obviously that's only going to work with things that are close by - clouds and stars are far too far away. What you need is something that is extremely sensitive to incoming light, and that's what the military version does.
For Clouds, get yourself a thermal camera (i love my seek thermal, plugs in my phone and comes in a good case), you can even spot really thin cloudlayers that you see stars through with it! As a bonus you can check the house for thermal leaks in the winter :)
I do have a NV400B, it works great (except when you zoom in, because its a little laggy...). I also have a gen2 pvs7. For stargazing, I would recommend analogic ones (the ones with IIT). In a very light polluted area (my house), these will work incredibly well (much better than any digital device). Yesterday I used them and its an amazing experience hehe
I believe a digital camera with IR filter removed and then use a IR torch of the correct wavelength is the same principal of looking at objects say up to 200mtrs dependent on level of IR illumination, which is what the binocular is seeing with IR on. I have similar "bino" they appear to be many makes looking similar possibly the same inside. I have had gen 1 and 2, the binos are far superior looking better than gen3, but only within the beam range of the IR. Gen 3 will be superb on sky as you know. Looking locally you will not be disappointed, I love them. About £110 in UK.
Only military grade are any good for astronomy. Also these night binoculars only have a limited range as they are using an ir light source that has limited range
If M42 looks better with the infra red turned off probably best just get normal binoculars!As for cloud spotting I suppose exotic one's like nacreous and noctilucent clouds are of interest to astronomers but not normal tropospheric ones!
florida real ufos uses night vision gen 3 to watch ufos in his channel. can you see ufo with this one? i got a ufo hunting script on my page it would be nice if i could use it with night vision.
What if you put it on the eye piece through a telescope C8 hmmm Ahh try this a do live video. Orion gal I'm quite curious how that would look live video through the telescope
IR is dooe but it dosent amplify the light true expensive is passive and dosent use IR light also if your tac and useing IR active NVG your PHU$&@ dude WILL see you as a bright ass light if they have type 1 or 2 .. passive is best pvs14 can go around 2 grand gen 3 systems go for about 12 grand
excellent,informative, "unfortunatly the whole point is "vision"" your camera work was very lax, never hiolding a shot so we could get a good sense of quality sight, and a wobbly view is nauseating, so so sorry but, good not great, thanks cheers.

Ever see UFOs or strange objects?

Where can I get the model you got? I'm starting a UFO hunting project, and need some NV equipment to look at stars and UFOs

Thanks, that's what I want them for (UAP's). Please post your footage on your channel !

Actually: I love how y'all don't edit everything and show the small mis steps, nice seeing both of y'all back together and out under the night sky!!!

I have Creative XP IR binocs and have recorded several ufo’s!

Actual Gen 1 passive binocs are also available on Amazon for $120 -$150. Confirmed good stargazing and satellites but depends on sky conditions.
I do have a NV400B, it works great (except when you zoom in, because its a little laggy...). I also have a gen2 pvs7. For stargazing, I would recommend analogic ones (the ones with IIT).

Those clouds "out of nowhere" are CHEM TRAILS!!!

Good luck reaching distant stars with that little IR illuminator.
Even if you are very patient, the return signal will be too weak to pick up.
Useful review, but, just to take note of an advantage over regular binos...You actually can see in color with this one!...And that´s great!
This video answered the exact question I had, and it isn't just another chatgpt-generated clickbait vid. Nice.
Thanks for all your research into more affordable units. I'm looking for an affordable night-vision monocular for UFO watching.
what about ufos guys!! did you catch any?
My Revolution imager does exactly the same, using it with the telescope, it's very quick getting images
Had mine over two years.

Thankyou. I am ordering one
I think that PVS7 is a way to go, but that stuff is very expensive
ha! I literally just bought those for myself and 2 of my friends for christmas!
Haha nice, they're super fun!
Subscribed!⚡️♥️⚡️

Cool video seems like fun
I’d probably use a tripod with a fluid head too.
Thank you for saying you can't track deep sky objects
What if you put it on the eye piece through a telescope C8 hmmm
Ahh try this a do live video.
Orion gal I'm quite curious how that would look live video through the telescope
if i bought these i'd be blinded by the lights lol.
and my question was answered when you looked up.... 1/4-20 for tripod.
P8079HP Make your own Night Vision Set Up. Merry Christmas!
These binoc recorder is difficult to set date/time!
You can see deep sky.
👍

I wish that company would pay. You guys 👨 for promotions👧👦
use tripod next time
Not a satellite, a UFO!
She looks Armenian
Stop moving around and keep yourself out of view
