@@Chrisblau Yeah, the cinematography, the music, the scripting, etc. With his occasional car references, I've been suspicious that y'all were kinda using them as part of the inspiration for the product for a while. Damn good thing to shoot for.
Night vision is a necessity, so is having an IR illuminator. Especially when you live in the middle of nowhere. Out here there's no lights, no ambient lighting, and on an overcast moonless night it is pitch black. In those conditions NODS don't do much without an IR illuminator. Good work fellas, keep it up.
I recently picked up a bridge from ryvan group that lets me bridge a pvs 14 with a flir breach thermal monocular. After playing with the margins for a while I was able to overlay the alert mode with a white phosphor tube. It’s a game changer.
Correct it’s adding yet another super power dude. Fusion or mixing thermals and nod capability is the future we will be covering that kind stuff also 👊🏼
The entire marine corps has had night vision (pvs 14’s) for several years. We are just recently getting a numerous amount of pvs 31’s spread throughout us
Yeah which is awesome for you guys 👊🏼 now every marine can destroy everything day or night with BOTH eyes 😂😂 be safe out there dude appreciate you thank you for watching.
Recently jumped into the NV rabbit hole myself. Snagged a high spec Steele Industries PVS-14, dBal D2, TW Bump 3.0 and an Eotech EXPS3-2, with some other bits. Looking forward to getting acclimated with it. Great vid. 🤘🇺🇸
Thank you man that means also. I tried really hard to get all the info I could and distill it down to where I was able to understand enough to convey the info properly. Hope I got it all right
Excellent video! Need to do a series on night optics, including this primer, monoculars vs binoculars, hand held units, scopes, scope add-ons etc and the advantages/disadvantages of each. Would like to hear your take on the thermal/night vision combination optics also.
Working on literally covering all of that dude. Thank you for confirming we are on the right track 👊🏼 glad to see interest in all that before we go through the process of making it all
Awesome video intro 👍. And thanks for the beginners guide here. I hear terms in other videos but I know nothing about night vision other than it lets you see at night, mostly, lol.
Best advise: call TNVC or HEAT and tell them your budget and what you need or ask what you need. These companies will get you set up with systems(helmet, mounts, nvg, LAM) so that you don’t spend hundreds or thousands of $ on things that aren’t compatible.
I’m getting flashbacks to your weapon light video. Did you know you can do night videos when it’s not freezing outside. Also great video very informative for those of us that know nothing about night vision.
I have a pair of 1531’’s from custom night vision. Best price and you can pick the pair looking through the tubes. Recommend them and I am from Tulsa right down the street from HEAT
I have nmore fun doing non shooting things under NODs tbh. You guys need to start ripping some side by sides or snow mobiles under NODs. I tried to get my local ski resort to let me night ski under NODs butt hey weren’t hearing it.
The headache from wearing a pvs7 is absolutely bizarre and terrible. A mono over you no dominant eye is generally pretty good and makes it easy to use your rifle optic in twilight conditions.
The snot and ice just makes the beard even more glories, let the weekend start with the smell of cordite and dude stuff. Sitting by the fire drinking whisky and watching my man crush...and Jake. Shooting courses starts tomorrow.
What cans were you guys using? They looked a bit flashy like they were titanium. I will say it's not fair to judge a can based on one video that isn't even about the can, especially on short barreled (presumably 5.56) guns. I'm just curious.
Thank you for asking and actually knowing the camera and setup makes a world of difference. This is a CGS Hyperion K on a 11.5 556. You see some shots has spark some doesn’t. The reason is a multitude of things but it is no different then the FLASH other cans have. Trade offs man shave weight but have some sparks, keep the wait but still have flash cause suppressors never completely stop flash especially on first round pop. From the threats position down range you can’t tell one from the other and the sparking and flashing is a none issue 20m and further. 👊🏼
@@Chrisblau really nice job it was good 👍🏻 In the last video I had some suggestions for a pistol optic for my STI I just ordered a Holosun HE507C-GR-X2 because I like green dots
@@Chrisblau yes someone answered me from the 1911 syndicate I think Jake does that right. I asked the question on the video a couple days ago with Mike and Jake you could scroll down and see what we talked about on that video. I didn't do anything I just ordered it yesterday.
great video, my newb question is: If an emitter and green laser is needed for shooting at night, what is the nv modes on almost all optics good for? Probably two different animals but I just don't get it.
@@TheCasualCosmonaut 👊🏼 basically we forgo on that in a BUDGET setup not are nice to have but not necessary so that’s the idea. Also working with Jamie I found with the right padding inside the helmet you don’t need counter weights. Sounds crazy but counter weights are still WEIGHT his idea was go as light as possible with the proper padding and such and you can skip the weights. Just one idea we will cover several on the next couple videos
I have a question do you really need D Ball in order to work with the night vision system ? I am trying not to have that on my rifle for weight reasons Instead using a night vision reticle.
i only shoot CGS cans under nods is a none issue if you watch where jake is shooting compared to me his flash vs my sparking is almost identical in some shots. Not really an issue man 🤷♂
check minute 4:00-4:15 some shots sparking some none at all and also the camera will always make the sparking appear worse than the naked eye cause of how the camera picks up light compared to your eyes.
Some great points but I can’t really take this seriously after seeing not one extra way of retaining the device to the helmet outside of the mount! A lanyard and or a bungee for retraining your investment isn’t “cool guy stuff”. It’s just smart.
We cover that in the next video but the answer is whatever you feel works best for you. Arguments could be made either way but all the experts that helped with this video told me that also.
you guys should get a night vision nerd on here to explain the properties/specifications of an image intensifier tube and how each relates to practical performance in various lighting conditions. you're obviously trying to explain stuff that you don't have a solid grasp on yourselves, which is the opposite of your typical content.
Also we specifically didn’t dive into deeper under standings since this is a 101 style video. Again I’ll work at it and I work very hard at getting info down in a way I can explain it/understand it myself if it’s not up to your liking I apologize.
It's like a super power that FEW can buy...because it's super expensive. I mean, sure, if people can afford MP5s and custom 1911s, then night-vision is a no brainer. But for 98% of us, it would be spending more than we can afford on something we won't likely use.
Chances are you won't use your carry pistol to defend yourself during your life time either. I agree it is super expensive but there's plenty of people out there who buy 10 PSA ARs at 500 a piece. And then say 5k for NV is to much.
@@johnc5330 True. That's why I don't carry a $2K carry pistol, but my CCW is the pistol I spend the most money on (though these days I've evolved from having a CCW and an HD/zombie pistol to just accepting the CCW can also do HD/Zombie duty). I can't afford more than one good carbine, but it's true there are people who throw away $5K on stuff they don't need or use that could be used to buy NV they don't need or use. ** I DO know people who are using NV and thermal for coyote and boar, but they also drive $80K trucks, whereas I drive a $5K car.
I got an ar pew pew pew... 😂 They are like shooting a .22. The military needs to upgrade. 😂 I say .300 RUM on the ar platform. Imagine shooting the rum out of the pew pew gun. FYI not that ive tried it or anything never use 5.56 for mule deer hunting. 😂

Tonight on 1911 Syndicate : Crispy video tapes some trees and snow, Chris has a runny nose, and Jake has a magic toliet paper tube....

The marine corps as a whole has had NVG’s for some time what is changing is that all infantry units are now getting dual tube white phos.

I could never get down with using my 14 over non dominant eye. I liked being able to shoot passively with the monocle on too.
The music you guys chose is like a soundtrack for an action flick ...wow...
"dont mess with green unless you get a super smoking deal on it"
*looks at my $800 -14....*
And that sir is a super smokin deal. Thanks for watch I’m not digging green as I said higher FOM in free is still better than lower FOM white.

You do not have to use a laser or IR light. The night vision setting on the optic you can see through the tubes. It’s just more labor intensive
World Class!

What is the average SNR? I'm assuming it is measured in DB? (this is coming from an astrophotographer, who knows dark light sensors well)
GET SOME!!!!
I'm not all the way through the video, but... counterweight! even for a pvs14. I've got the cg of my helmet right at the crown of my skull
