    Love people who possess the *integrity* to be brutally honest in their videos, even when it reflects poorly on the product or company.

    Its the same as US night vision gogle for military personnel. They use light intensifier approach.
    But military grade uses bolometer in enhance light while this cam uses amplify ISO CCD.
    By the way I'm satisfying for the cam quality picture as it work at night consider you drive alone in dark condition. But for standard frequenly uses road with roadside lamp its no need using.

    Hi Sergiu; 2 things ONE#1. I just signed to to subscribe just for support of UKRAINE; It is a good thing, more of should be out there. THANK YOU!
    Secondly. #2. I was looking for good DASH CAM for my car to be able to record continuously in car parks especially, so if someone runs into the car at least there is a chance of catching them also plus the other good feature. I was seriously considering buying 2 x of this LANMODO VAST M1 night vision system after seeing the other reviewers, but something inside was holding me back and today THANK GOD I ran into your review and analysis which confirmed my suspicions. It goes to show that the wold will never stop scamming people, but thank you again that there are people like you!!!! Keep it up my friend the good work. Oh if you can suggest a good dash cam with night vision system, that would be appreciated very much.

    Also, IR light waves cannot go through glass.
    So the IR illuminator must be placed outside, and the lens must also be outside to receive the reflecting IR radiation.
    So any night vision camera that is mounted inside the cabin will not be a true night vision camera

    Hi Sergiu! Greetings from Bulgaria, I'm loving your approach of delivering somewhat scientific, but really pratically applicable comparisons.
    Here are some ideas for future videos: Car batteries (I'm looking for a lipofe4 battery at the moment and I really hate the CA vs CCA indication and the messed up capacity compared to Pb batteries). Maybe something with bushings (engine mounts, or plainly suspension bushings... with our "nice" roads there, we all know there are certain brands that do well, and others that you just buy twice...)... Spark plugs (is more expensive more better...?) coil packs (NGK, vs bosch vs beru etc... VAG r8 coils, maybe also vs yaris coils... these are popular retrofit for performance cars).
    I like your series of filter comparisons, maybe you can figure out a methodology for fuel filters?
    Please dont go with tyre reviews :)

      The downside to good night vision devices such as gen 3 un-filmed white phosphor is the cost and lack of peripheral vision. A gen 3 monocular such as a PVS-14 only gives you a 40º FOV, no depth perception and will cost you between $3,000 and $5,000. If you want a dule tube setup you are looking at $8,000-$13,500.

  • @donbeary6394

    "light magnification" is another way of saying light amplification .. this is what all night vision cameras do, they amplify the available light (they will not work with NO light) Note: they will still work without an infrared light source, streetlights or moonlight is like daylight, and you can even see with just starlight (not talking about thermal imaging cameras) EDIT: I think you are right about the sensor just being a high ISO sensor, no light amplification at all .. wow, what a pile of crap! .. while you can see "something" in the dark, it's totally not useful ... I saved all the wiring diagrams for the Cadillac thermal night vision system, after playing a bit with the system at a GM training center, thinking it would be cool to get one from a wrecked car (but not likely, because that camera is in the grill emblem and not likely to survive a collision)
