Can I just say whoever set up the lighting for this video nailed it
I'll leave a comment, as you gotta start somewhere. I use a ITT PVS14 Gen 3plus with a Wilcox G24 Dove Tail mount, Wilcox Amber lens for more light n protect my eyes. Set up with a Wilcox Dove Tail weapon mount n view through a Trijicon IR n red dot. I often use a 3 n 5x magnifying glass for hand recon type work. I also field with my Trijicon REAP-IR thermal scope with a lower profile double cam lever mount n a rail extension specifically designed for the Trijicon REAP-IR thermal scope, always pack IR n especially thermal poncho with coverage of body, gear, weapons.
Using that combo has n will always be my own the night. I use Steiner IR military laser Dbal A3 duel IR n project additional green IR down range. It's done everything I've ever needed it to perform but does add additional weight to my LWRC M6 SPR with a small reverse rubber hook forward hand stop n additional 4 hrs battery n snakes. Helmet is setup strictly for PVS14 mono by either eye flipped up not in use. Carry n know your weight limits on gear or you'll break your neck. I hate clip-ons setups, also be aware of lightning up your face n head. Or you won't be at chow n story hour at the school house. Just my 2 cents, ole paradog now n 90% dead. There's tons of things you need to know to survive using any type of enhanced equipment. Use n carry additional eye cups. I use 250lb small line to tie off all my cups. ALWAYS use some type of leash or corded tie off to your gear. Having a breakaway at full sprint n battle rattle you'll wish you had.
Now that our fraudulentecy left night eyes n advanced weapons n ammo n n munitions to field for the Taliban n IRG n ISIS, Hamas ect amongst others. Our future fights are going to be extremely difficult where we once owned the night.
Do you guys have a video on a complete setup for running the NVG and Thermal combo on a helmet?
Liking the content, right now getting either let alone both is a dream but I am going to be making it happen before too long. Will be watching your vids and will be in touch about further advice when I'm ready! Thanks for the content guys
Absolutely, we hope to offer as much helpful content as possible 👊
Me and my dad are looking at budget stuff. Our question is: NVG10 or a thermal scope to adapt to an helmet mount with around a 1000€?
I started with thermal and then got nvg and wish I would have started with nvg I got out amd used it more as I can navigate with it and do all the fun night hikes both play critical roles
I only have one working eye so i cant bridge my question is can you navigate with a MH25 especially through thick woods since its a screen you are looking that depends on computer software or is the pvs14 my best bet since i can only buy one
Thanks
I been looking at the viper Binos and a hand held for detection coyote hunting
We have some new stuff hitting the site this week that you’ll like. And we can get you into those Vypers! Email us: CS@Arkayne.com
I have a gen3 PVS14 WP and love it but now looking for thermal possibly a breach, Great info.
Personally we’d recommend against the breech. Check out the NOX18 or the STINGIR 640
@@Arkayne Hey, THANKS will check them out. Still saving should be a couple of months.
14 first, since the cost will come down quality go up waiting on the thermal
Cheers
Do thermals emit ir light that is highly visible by someone else wearing nightvision?
They Emit nothing. They only gather infrared. They do not need illuminators, they do not need ANY ambient light to work. They can ALSO work in sunlight/daylight conditions whereas NV will be destroyed.
@@Arkayne thank you for the response. The fact they do not emit IR light gives thermals a huge advantage over NV's in a recce mountain situation.
What about a COTI or ECOTI?
If you hate money fusion for the win
@@schadenfreud33 Not for us. fusion currently doesn't even compare to a dedicated high resolution thermal. Not even the same planet.
@@Arkayne the real magic of fusion is ATAK integration, it's more than just thermal and infrared even with just an ecoti it's a low res augmented reality, again if you hate money, say fusion pano's with atak integration a drone on the same network your capabilities will far exceed just thermal
@@schadenfreud33 some Ghost Recon shit
PVS14 with NOX18 in a bridge. Change my mind.
We love the NOX 18 too. Solid unit. Only a few complaints from us about it. Nothing major.
Whats best in the firefight when you are attacked off the guard.
Not getting in a firefight to begin with. That being said: thermal is king of finding stuff before it’s right up on you.

Dumb questions lol I feel bad you have to answer that everyday
Night Vision first because lasers don't work with thermal.
No more talking i want to see action
