sees in the dark

Definitely sees in the dark at a very long distance. The picture is clear enough. To me it's just a toy as it has no practical use for it other than viewing nocturnal creatures.

Pros
  • Excellent for me
Cons
  • Poorly adjusted

Bought for hunting. I'm not dating

Bought for hunting. I'm not made of money, that's why I chose this. It works out. Maybe you can do 50 meters. I used this when it was still dark to see the critters before the hunting lessons started.

Pros
  • Acceptable
Cons
  • -

At first I was disappointed but realized I had to do it manually.

At first I was disappointed, but I realized that I had to manually focus the lens! After I did that, everything is fine and works great. Not necessarily for (Bob), but it will be a handy tool at night when you want to avoid trouble and not be noticed. Costs money.

Pros
  • Cool
Cons
  • Silence

Not crappy, but not great either

I've had several Night Owl products. This is good for an open field within 100 yards. This is not a night vision enhancer. That's IR, which means it doesn't give a shit from afar. If there are bushes or obstacles of any kind, you won't be able to see behind them due to the shadow that the IR light casts. It would be okay to search a flat ranch or farm for predators. But that's about it. I return mine.

Pros
  • Always liked
Cons
  • Infinitely sluggish

Xgen Xgenpro 3x Digital Night Vision Viewer "Personal View ".

For a buyer who expects to get a little more than hundred dollars of military equipment and then buys this product and leaves a bad review. Please go ahead and post your opinion elsewhere. I almost didn't buy this item because some of the reviews were left by people who want something for next to nothing. I also have expectations when I buy something. The item works, it works in total darkness and you can see at least 120 meters with it. It uses normal AA batteries (4 pieces). Very easy to use…

Pros
  • Weight
Cons
  • A few small things

Good quality product.

Today I received the device. Nicely packaged and safe. First of all, this device is small and fits perfectly in a medium-sized hand. The manual that came with the device is very small and difficult to read. (Tip: place on copier and enlarge). The instructions are simple and easy to follow if you can zoom in. The peculiarity of this device is that it uses 3 AAA batteries. (Remove them when not in use as there is less chance of battery leakage and damage). The lens cap did not come with a cable…

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • New competitors have appeared

Cool Tips: Use red lens and other tips

I purchased this item based on a real2all1 review. Its rating is correct except that it requires 3 AA batteries. Here are some helpful tips I also learned: 1. This device destroys the night vision in the eye you are using. However, there is a cure. Put the red lens on the eyepiece. I used the red lens that came with an old AA flashlight I had. The lens is 1.120 inches in diameter, but something bigger would be better, say 30-35mm. I attached it with small pieces of tape. 2. The first thing to…

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • Socket required
