Review on 🔦 Bushnell Equinox Z2 Night Vision Monocular: Enhanced Optics for Exceptional Visibility by Gus Gutierrez

Purchased for night time surveillance of my property and night time wildlife viewing. There was no noticeable change in on-screen text focus with the eyepiece focus ring, but on-screen text was still fine. I was impressed by the device in the twilight until it got dark, then I realized that the IR lighting didn't work in "night" mode. With new batteries absolutely no difference was noticed between off, low or high settings. I have to assume that the IR emitter is defective on this device, so I'll get back to you. (UPDATE) Thanks Revane. I received the defective unit on Monday and requested a refund with a replacement. Two days later on Wednesday, when I was at the UPS pickup point to return the defective device, I received the message that a new device had been delivered. Thanks again Revin. The replacement unit works great, even better than expected. It is clear that it was possible to count the number of points on several deer at a distance of more than 200 meters. The camera mount is a plus as I used a monopod to stabilize the image so I could take better pictures. Additionally, when mounted on a tripod, images can be viewed on a Wi-Fi enabled smartphone or tablet using the Equinox app. I only gave it 4 stars because I found it a bit heavy and bulky to hold in hand. It would be nice if it had a padded strap instead of a simple wrist strap. Overall, it performs better than expected for night vision in this price range.
