I don't usually comment on videos, but I wanted to give you a huge THANK YOU for the succinct explanation on just how the heck to install the mini-rail attachment. I'm apparently dim and was struggling to figure out how to make it work out-of-box. A link to this video should be included with every Panobridge order, as far as I'm concerned.
And you might note the pano bridge is a viable option compared to using anything offered by Knights Armament Corporation (KAC). After watching your Thermo FLIR Breech video in 2020, I ordered the KAC setup you suggested. Now 13 months later I'm still backordered at TNVC with no delivery date available due to KAC components being on backorder without an expected date of delivery. So while the KAC bridge and shoes make a very nice setup, I may have to use my pano bridge to put my FLIR into service. Thanks for the information you provide, it's very helpful.
If you don’t need QD and they’ll be staying on the bridge, the PB is a solid option. The pano feature does help to line up the screen compared to all other articulating bridges I’ve used
Just getting my first PVS14. I know literally nothing about helmets, mounts, bridges etc but I love the video you did 2 years ago with articulating amounts and easily switched between eyes. Can I call TNVC and request to talk to you?
Have you tried using a iray mh25 or ml19 with the pvs14 eye piece adapter with a pvs14 instead of the breach? If so how did you like it? If not any reason why not going that route?
I have not. I don’t have access to them and I haven’t had a need to buy one because the Breach meets all of my needs. My property is treed pretty good and the average visibility distance is less than 75 yards.
Have you had the chance to get your hands on the iRay MH25 or rh25 thermal's? The RH is pretty dern expensive but they're saying they are higher resolution and easier to use. Would be cool to get a comparison video to see if its worth the extra price tag on the RH25 unit or if a breach is good enough.
Total weight with two PVS-14s is around 24-25oz. If your helmet is balanced well and you have good pads it’s not terrible and especially if you’re used to wearing helmets.’
@NITEWALKER-NIGHTVISION Do you need manual gain if you want to do this kind of setup? Would a tanto with no manual gain make it difficult to combine the 2 images, or can an iris work to substitute?
@@musicman1eanda You should always use a monocular with manual gain. When you use it with the thermal you’ll likely run it at max gain but there will be times when you use it by itself and manual gain is what you want. By lowering the gain, you can get your brain to combine the vision from your unaided eye.
It might help but everyone’s ability to fuse the two different images is well, different, lol. I’ve only been able to “fuse” them using the Breach in outdoor alert mode.
@@NITEWALKER-NIGHTVISION With budget in mind, what is the most cost-effective system for general use looking around the property? PVS-14 with what kind of thermal (scope or ortherwise)?
@@armon8399 the PBM uses a LEMO connector which is compatible with ANVIS battery packs. The AB Night Vision LPBP-GO’s cable is long enough to reach it. The standard USGI ANVIS battery pack cable is not long enough because they are designed to work with helmet mounts that also have a cable, but if you are capable with soldering/splicing you can extend it. I recommend using the ABNV LPBP because it’s much more durable and is a dual fuel pack (AA or CR123A).
@@NITEWALKER-NIGHTVISION I have a ANVIS battery pack and I couldn't find a LEMO cable with the correct ends on each side. It's been a while but I think it needs a feamle and male end on the cable or something like that. What ever it was, a standard lemo cable would not go from the anvis to the PBM. I did speak to someone at TNVC and all they said was to get a custom cable. Didn't help me much
Do you have any direct company contact info? I'd like to mirror your setup and would likely purchase parts from the company you work for. It would be nice to get personalized assistance for this

Thank you sir. Yes, much more viable option. KVC is MIA unfortunately
Could you do a video on with bridge you like the most and why for nightvision and thermal combo with what is available now a days
Informative and concise. Thank you
🤙
Nice! Thank you for the video!
🤙
Nice ive been thinking about getting one. And the qd feature would be nice but as long as you can rotate it out of the way it's fine.

Good video like always!
Thank you 🤙
Thanks for the video!

Man I wish you'd have posted this a couple weeks ago!
I know brother, I’ve meaning to do more videos but have been absolutely slammed with zero spare time until recently 😒
Just getting my first PVS14. I know literally nothing about helmets, mounts, bridges etc but I love the video you did 2 years ago with articulating amounts and easily switched between eyes. Can I call TNVC and request to talk to you?
Yessir call to tomorrow and ask for Will
Have you tried using a iray mh25 or ml19 with the pvs14 eye piece adapter with a pvs14 instead of the breach? If so how did you like it? If not any reason why not going that route?
I have not. I don’t have access to them and I haven’t had a need to buy one because the Breach meets all of my needs. My property is treed pretty good and the average visibility distance is less than 75 yards.
Does the pano bridge still come with the adapter for the breach?
No, not anymore. You have to order the adapter separately direct from NF
I was hoping nosiefighters was going to make it QD
😢

I haven’t used one but I’ve seen the image and it’s no doubt better. But if you’re mainly using it at shorter ranges the breach is perfectly capable.
@@NITEWALKER-NIGHTVISION Understandable, thanks for the insight.
Can you put the mini rail adapter on the ax14 arm, or is the mod armory j-arm the way to go if you only want to run a thermal?
It does not work on the AX14
With whats currently available, what bridge/clip setup would you recommend i use for a pvs14 and flir breach. This setup still?
Sorry been busy busy. Yessir, still the panobridge. If KVC ever gets their shit together than go that route
Will this work with the new armasight 640 pro?
The Noisefighters mini-rail arm is compatible with the new Armasight Sidekick.
How long can you bear to wear this system? What's the total weight?
Total weight with two PVS-14s is around 24-25oz. If your helmet is balanced well and you have good pads it’s not terrible and especially if you’re used to wearing helmets.’

Hi please is there any APP for breach ? i cant find any working for me in EU... please help
What is your favorite bridge?
The KVC Universal Bridge with KVC accessories. Unfortunately they are not currently available. No ETA 🙁
How expensive is that set up and what’s it look like
Can you get the images to fuse now by tiling the thermal?
It might help but everyone’s ability to fuse the two different images is well, different, lol. I’ve only been able to “fuse” them using the Breach in outdoor alert mode.
@@NITEWALKER-NIGHTVISION Ahh I see. Your older videos indicate you weren't able to get a fuse at all.
@@NITEWALKER-NIGHTVISION With budget in mind, what is the most cost-effective system for general use looking around the property? PVS-14 with what kind of thermal (scope or ortherwise)?
@@user1acount sorry been busy busy. I’d take a -14 and thermal monocular over duals and no thermal
@@NITEWALKER-NIGHTVISION Thank you for the reply. Would helmet mounted thermal be better than a scope? Do you prefer a certain model?
So what mount IS your favorite for running pvs14 with Flir Breach?
KVC. Unfortunately they’re still MIA. Hopefully will have them soon
@@NITEWALKER-NIGHTVISION where does the KVC surpass the panobridge or Wilcox bridge mount in your opinion?
@@jorgenonell1108 for use with a thermal: better IPD adjustment, QD attachment, and more adjustability at the center dovetail in particular
@@jorgenonell1108 to make clear, the Wilcox MUM arm doesn’t not have QD or IPD with their thermal arm.
Been waiting over a year for the KVC so far
I just got mine and I'm a little disappointed. It seems to me that it wouldn't take much for it to break. Wish they had one in aluminum
Although it has some “bendiness”, the material is tough. The material is what makes is so light. Aluminum would increase the weight by a few ounces
@@NITEWALKER-NIGHTVISION I hope so it wasn't cheap. Lol.. other than it feeling flimsy I do like it. Field of view is a lot better
Question for u. I also have the TNVC powered bridge mount..do u know of any cables I can get and a battery pack that's compatible with it?
