I love my Aurora Pro. Haters gonna hate, they aren’t tubes, but man are they great. I’ve used behind my varmint and pig guns. Their technology is going to only get better.
@@travismacaluso2957 I do, right behind my holosun optic. Haven’t had any problems and the reticle is very visible. It is digital, so occasionally there is a lag, but it hasn’t affected performance. Rarely do I use an IR Illuminator unless I’m in tree cover or new moon. Only used it on my 556, 22lr, 300blk and 10mm banshee.
@@PorkSword_actual nice. Still back and forth between digital or a basic pvs14. I do like the ability to record though....and it's like half the price. Lol Is the video quality as grainy as they show on some reviews? Makes it look like it's basically unusable....
@@travismacaluso2957 the only time it I’ve noticed it appearing grainy is when trying to use it in daylight/twilight mode when it’s too dark and occasionally switching between them. Once it’s on the setting that meets the conditions, it’s great. Might be some differences between models as I’ve only used the Pro. I tried out my FFL’s for a month before purchasing it too. I wouldn’t have shelled out any dough if it didn’t work well. The color using the night vision setting is pretty amazing too. It’s not 4K or anything, but it does a nice job for my purposes. I’ve been having a “blast” with it. Just wreaked havoc on Nutria last week and a lot of shots made with Aurora Pro held to my eye and aiming with just my DBAL. Rifle in lap, kicking back in a lawn chair. I’m interested to see how it holds up the 300blk over time with the recoil being slightly higher that the 22 calibers. I wouldn’t put it on a 308 or 45/70, but I’d love to. I’m still planning to get some goggles, but this is great fun while saving up.
@@travismacaluso2957 hey Travis. Just saw on Instagram SiOnyx is having a 7 dale sale on the Aurora Pro and include their good sized illuminator and pic rail. Cheers.
Just scored a used but great shape in box black off of mecari for $360 and should be here tomorrow and can't wait to try it. From the videos I don't understand why it's got so many bad reviews on Amazon. Seems like it's miles better than the usual $200 and under digital stuff.
I've been back and forth for over a year on these. Wanted to try and get my hands on one before hand. When you get the bridge setup, let me know! I'll throw in a box of 5.56/.223 for the trouble 🤣
For anyone looking for an emitter for this, the one that comes with the kit is decent, but I recommend Nitecore CI7. It’s about twice as bright as the emitter that comes with the kit and if you got the kit, the CI7 will fit perfectly into the case in place of their emitter in the hard case.

704 Tactical, what is the best bang for the buck CCW belt? I looked through your videos but couldn't find any related videos except for just a battle belt from Tacticon. Thnx, for all your helpful videos!!!!
I got one from Versacarry at Xmas I think it was called the Gunslinger but could be mistaken. It doesn't have the sheet metal or plastic in between the leather. This belt is double the thickness of a good leather belt like you would get from Tandy Leather. The ones that lasts for 5 + years or so. The closest resemblance I can compare it to is the thick leather belts that cops use. I carry a CZ75 BD full size 9mm, Firefly flashlight, extra mag, Leatherman Wave multitool, keys, and a fixed blade bowie style knife(about 15 inches long), that this belt supports daily with no issues. It was on sale then for $19.99 and it's $29.99 now I think. They offer bundle packages with different holsters that reduces the price to $19.99 also. I have their Commander holster and it's very good quality as well, and for $19.99 is a great bargain. Hope this helps. Have a good one..
@@chadh3441 I just seen your reply now. Thnx, for the info. Good timing my edc belt fell apart this last weekend. All it was was a huge gigantic cow hide leather belt. I will check itbout!
I’m pretty sure you’re like the only reviewer I’ve seen who actually remembered to switch it to Night mode when using it with IR 😂 Works great if you use it right.
He has em for the similar priced thermal Scopes too and a thermal is next on my list. I have 2 helmets and one will be digital NV and one will be thermal.

Do you use mounted to the rifle? Been looking at the pro for a while....

If anyone is wondering about Hemet mounting,a guy on Etsy has awesome mounts for these and the thermal monocular.
Kiloohm is the seller.
Good morning 704 and everyone.
Do you still recommend this unit

Could you review the Sightmark Wraith 4K Monocular? I haven’t seen any reviews on it nor any footage looking through it.
Great vid! Curious of the digital zoom and if it degrades the image any. Is there a hot show mount on the cam?
What IR lite were you using?

Great, when that 3 am NO KNOCK warrant from the ATF comes a calling. To help you slip out into the Darkness.. 😆
Slip into the darkness?...... I AM THE DARKNESS!! 🤣
@@travismacaluso2957 Sure, very youtuber needs a villain...
What about your dog?
If they’re coming at night , they will be rocking high grade nv

6:38 Is that an HDMI port/mini-HDMI inside there?
What about stacking it behind a night vision rated holographic like an eotech 552?

Kore Essentials gun belt
@@GhiIIie thanks for the reply. I hear a lot of good things about them actually, watched quite a few videos on that brand.
how is the resolution thru the view finder and what is the field of view looking thru the view finder?
I’m pretty sure you’re like the only reviewer I’ve seen who actually remembered to switch it to Night mode when using it with IR 😂
Works great if you use it right.
Is that discount code still good
Thx for an accurate analysis..!!
Wish they made one that's optimized for helmet mounting
He has em for the similar priced thermal Scopes too and a thermal is next on my list.
I have 2 helmets and one will be digital NV and one will be thermal.
