PVS-21 Reviews

To the OP, if you have ever tried a PVS-21 you will NEVER go back to a single or standard dual tube monoc system ever again. The 21's are something VERY special and the capabilities are incredible. I know, it's all I have been using for the last few years. 
I do wish they were a bit less expensive, but the price of this technology drives this price and I cannot say enough how effective these systems are in all lighting conditions. 

When you think of NODs (Night Observing Device) you think of a short tube that sticks out about 4.5″ from your face. In most cases they are like a scope, light enters in through the objective lens and in a straight line, shines out the back through the eyepiece and out the eyepiece into your eye. Well, Steiner has an unconventional approach to dual tube night vision. The PVS-21 is a low profile night vision goggle that does not stick out as far. Reducing the protrusion by about 3-4 inches. Making the PVS-21 the lowest profile NODs on the market.
I have used the 21s a good bit since 02. Some things I like:
There are good for driving, if you come into a lit area, or oncoming traffic the non amplified or true image takes over in the beam combiner, same thing when moving from a dark hall way to a lit room. Sometimes you get a double image effect, but its not to bad. Plus you can just turn them off and see right through them. And it has good depth perception.
  • You can use them with a red dot on your long gun, as fast as your naked eye.
  • If you have to see things up close, they focus with great clarity.
  • They do not stick out far from your face. If you are in a confined armor vehicle, and everyone has NV that sticks out you some time "lock antlers" not so with the 21s
  • What I don't like: They are heavy, You need a really solid mount or they will droop.
  • Have not compared a 14 to 21 for quality of image, will take a few out tonight and do so.
there are some advantages about PVS-21:
  • And  Low-profile, see-through technology.
  • See-through optics instantly transition to bright light.
  • Enhanced situational awareness with sensor integration.
  • Large, un-intensified field-of-view for improved depth perception and CQB capability.
  • Eliminates vertigo and tunnel vision associated with conventional systems.
  • Reduced center of gravity for great comfort and extended wear.
  • Ideal for high-speed vehicle operation, parachute jumps and aggressive use over rough terrain.

More black technology than four-eye night vision device - AN/PVS-21 low light level night vision

图片
When the US military night vision device is mentioned, the first thing that people think of may be the GPNVG-18 four-eye night vision device used by the seals in the action of the Poseidon. And almost everyone thinks that GPNVG-18 is the top-level low-light night vision device of the US military. In fact, the price of GPNVG-18 is the most expensive, but the technical content is also AV/PVS-21. PVS-21 The Evolution of The PVS-21 The low-light night vision device has evolved from the first generation to the fourth generation. Basically, in addition to imaging clarity, there has not been much progress, especially in the two critical issues of depth of field and field of view. GPNVG-18 mainly solves the problem of field of view through the superposition of 4 night vision devices, but compared with GPNVG-18, AN/PVS-21 low-light night vision device has achieved both depth of field and field of view.

How to Play the Airsoft Game at Night

Have you ever played airsoft at night, pitch black, no lights other than flashlights and lasers? I played a game at pitch black except for the moonlight. Me and my bud were laying in the middle of a field with small bushes then suddenly a small patrol of 2 walk RIGHT by us with flashlights but they didn't see us. I simply nod my head at my teammate and we slowly emerge behind them, put their pistols to their back, and cover their mouths for the kill. It was glorious. Soon after, their final team mate comes back and while my firesquad buddy pins him down behind a tree, I make my way around in the darkness and get him with a single pistol shot. Moral of the story: Flashlights and Lasers aren't needed to play night games. Stealth is a major factor in night games. You have to really know your surroundings to play without the lasers and flashlights though.  So you need a dark technology, the night vision goggles -PVS-21. If you want to play airsoft in the night, there a
