THANK YOU!!! OMG, the instructions that came with my scope had me very frustrated = no idea 🤷🏼♀️. Your video was so awesome… now I’m set to get rid of the rats in my backyard 🙌🏼
How is the clarity up close 10-50 yards .This looks perfect for me taking care of rats in the chicken coup with a PCP air gun.can i use a power brick to power this ? how long do the factory batteries last ?
I just bought a firewolf brand and its garbage black and white viewing special order hard to find batteries, had to buy a new scope because it wouldn't fit any of the four I already have. Overall not happy with this purchase at all.
Don’t buy this product thinking the set up will be this easy. This is a very helpful video don’t get me wrong but the battery it recommends you to use does not fit. It says to use a raised positive 18650 battery but they are too long for the battery box. Plan on going on a wild goose chase trying to find the right batteries. Not a deal breaker cause the product is cool and cheap. However it is frustrating when you buy the product and can’t use it til you find the right batteries
I need some help fixing this thing....PLEASE.... Camera clicks on to confirm power is present ...but no video, not sure if screen is getting power or if it is...maybe video conductor is disconnected internally.... Getting ready to open er up....could use some troubleshooting tips😢
Hello,, learnt a lot. I have installed new batteries but the screen does not display even when it is On.. When you received this text, would you please help 🙏.
Hey, I have experimented and tested lot with 18650 batteries. Here's some buyer's advice: 1. Any rated capacity above 3600 mAh is a fraud. Do not get confused with capacities like 9900 mAh etc. It's nonsense. 2. You will find good and affordable batteries from Panasonic, Sony, LG and Samsung. 3. Samsung INR18650-35E and Panasonic NCR18650B (used in Teslas) have the highest capacities and can be had for less than 7 bucks each. 4. If you cheap out on these, you WILL end up buying twice ;) Don't buy these GTF labeled batteries, as they are a scam. Their real world capacity is somewhere in the region of a few hundred mAh. In general the market is flooded with these scam batteries and even counterfeits, so stick to the brands mentioned above.
Hey Max, yeah i'm fairly certain their not 9900mah. ive been using those batteries for about 3 years in my headlamps. for that they work well. i havent tested how long they will keep this going tho
@@EpikArms In case you are interested, here is a video of someone who reviewed one of those batteries. The models I mentioned above have around 6-7 times the capacity ;) ua-cam.com/video/7xDFpFebr0o/v-deo.html
@@maximilianlindner I read this comment just after my batteries arrived..and it is rated at 9900mah..and they are cheap too..lol..i guess its not gonna be a happy ending though
Hi. I am curious if i can see hidden warm bodies easier via IR during daytime. The same with the visual you presented with the tower, the difference only being it is during day time.
Main problem I’ve had with mine is either the cross hairs ( green or red ) are clear , or the image is clear , I’ts been impossible to get both clear at the same time regardless of how much I adjust everything ! , I don’t have this issue using the scope normally , so it’s not my eyesight .
Wnsure the focus/parralax is set to the right distance, then adjust the occular, then adjust the dial om the camera peice itself, that should get it faily clear
Help please I have a printed vision night setup. Similar to the video. Now it's in focus. But I want to know the best pic settings. Brightness- Contrast- Sharpness - Etc. Thank you.
Interesting concept but it adds so much bulk to the gun... how much is this unit? I think getting something already as a thermal or IR will end up cheaper/better. Sightmark has the Wraith. And the Pulsar thermals are apparently great values.
You can definately get better (Branded) gear but at 4---5 times the price. Remember this is a budget system for those without £500---1000+ to spend, but it will be fine for air rifle/ rimfire ranges, especially if you upgrade the IR torch to a T20 / T 30. The camera is just seeing what the scope sees in conjunction with the IR source.
What baffles me is that the sellers of these or similar products never mention one of the most important spec of the camera or the screen -the resolution
As someone who just learned about this, I'll be the first to admit I'm a novice in this field, yet this sounds like you have a fixed objective scope which is "tuned" to a set range, though I have no idea what its "tuned" to. From what I understand, you would need a scope with either an adjustable objective (AO - where the main lens is turned like an old style camera lens to bring the objective into focus), or side focus (SF - a wheel or knob on the side of your scope near the windage and elevation turrets) to get both to focus; where you use the focus on the eye piece to focus on the crosshair, then use turn the "side focus" turret or "adjustable objective" to bring your target into focus...
How good is this when compared to the nite site viper series ? is the nite site kit really worth the extra $$s? or this can produce similar results? please help Im really confused as I am looking forward to buy one of these add ons
Hello Alexander, I like, sorry I love all videos, well done, you help me a lot. Do you think this little night-time rifle scope would be perfect for rat hunting (at night) on a farm, I have a pcp airgun 22. I hesitate between the red light and this infrared scope. Bonjour Alexander, j'aime, pardon j'adore tout des vidéos, bravo, tu m'aide beaucoup. Pense tu que cette petite lunette de visée nocturne serait parfaite pour faire la chasse au rats (la nuit) dans une ferme, j'ai un airgun pcp. J hésite entre la lumière rouge et ce scope infra red.
I have the same problem so i called Amazon they sent me the sellers email, i emailed the seller let them know the battery tray is too short for the the batteries i purchased from several local retailers and all didn't fit. I asked them to send me a replacement tray instead they sent me some batteries that do fit so i think they are aware of the issue, hope this helps.
Hi, yeah this was a black and white. No colour on this unit. Mind you im not experienced with night vision, i was only asked to do an instructions video for setting it up.
I have the same problem. When I switch from night to day the white balance is normal and looks great for a second but immediately adjusts and is impossible to see the target clearly. Sent a msg to the company and was asked to send a video of what it's doing but haven't had the time to do that yet. Night mode is awesome though.
What are the 3 buttons on the back of the scren for? I purchased this product and it did not cone with instructions, nor did it come with an email, explaining the product
I had this fabric 'protector'/'screen' included. It has velcro attached as if it supposed to be optional. My Best guess is that it's used to reduce the light coming from the screen. Hope you know what i mean?
I own a megaorei version 2 which is very similar to this and that particular version can, though from what Alex(?) shared previously, this particular model does NOT have that capability
you might need to rezero, for the only reason that you would need to remove your optic and that may cause some very slight point of impact change. but if you have good scope rings that shouldn't happen
I didn't have to take my scope off to install it. I put the mount on upside down. Hand tighten the screws. Repositioned the ring mount. And used the short end of the Allen wrench and tightened it from the bottom.
@@EpikArms I mean is there an actual light that shines on the animal? I’m from Massachusetts and they don’t allow hunting with lights. Thank you for your quick response
@@chinmusicpoppersproduction5010 you will need to look up the local regulations, techinically infrared is a light just not perceptible to the naked eye,.
Ordered one of these last week to go on my rm8 varmint and just waiting for it to come so will look into replacing the supplied cable for one with a usb connector instead so i can plug the camera straight into my phone and use that as the monitor/recorder. Surely there must be a way to do this or maybe theres someone that can make up a usb cable
Having challenges getting the system set up. Sighted the gun at 100 yards with the scope, installed camera, and it shoots 12-14” low using the camera. Is there a way to adjust the camera system? Or, customer service that I can reach out to?
Hibthere so using the camera will have no impact on where the rifle is shooting, that jas everything to do with tour scope and the rifle, you, remove the camera on the eyepiece, and sight it in as normal, then once zeroed put the camera back on and adjust the camera itself
18650 is the battery size, though there are two main styles, one with flat positive terminals, and some with raised positive terminals. I use the flat ones myself and stick to one brand
If you are looking to pick one up
Amazon link:
amzn.to/2r1ELoG (USA)

is it a infrared light or just a red light

yeah this is a IR (infrared) this one retails for 180 CAD. i definitely add some cumbersomeness to the scope. but this wasn't a review.

How do you charge the batteries. Is there a separate charger that I should purchase
Price please
What baffles me is that the sellers of these or similar products never mention one of the most important spec of the camera or the screen -the resolution
Thats true, i dont have the info either .
Can I just use the infrared flashlight with a phone scope mount?
We’re do you get the battery’s from please
Ebay or you can check Amazon.
Do you need to site it in for the scope to hit right
yes you need to sight in the scope as normal
Good video. What is the largest caliber you've used this system on? I'm concerned about recoil/vibration. Thanks.
Hi Ragnar, i have not used this on any firearm, althout ive seen others on yt who have. Im just doing a instal video
I run it on .17hmr
Can anyone help me why my setup cannot focus both crosshair and the view simultaneously?if i focus the crosshair the view will blur and vice versa

Hi Wade, I think the only extra parts would be the 30-1" scope rings would they not? i sold my unit
18650 Is there different sizes
Thanks, another good and interesting video.
thanks Bobcat!

look up 18650 betteries, check ebay or amazon

What are the 3 buttons on the back of the scren for? I purchased this product and it did not cone with instructions, nor did it come with an email, explaining the product
I dont havebit anymore but i beleive its for the channels. Im not 100% on that tho
Brightness, contrast and etc. Middle button brings up the menu. Top and bottom--up/down. It's a very good bit of kit
Can I use this on standard scopes like my Nikon prostaff or does it need adjustable focal point
Yeah it would work fine
What is the functionality of the light? Do you need to use the light or it works in full dark?
The light emits a infrared non visible to the naked eye in the dark with the camera its not quite dailight but its pretty bright
My monitor isn't coming on what do i need to check batteries are charged
im not sure, cables are all connected the setting switch on the back of the screen?
I had this fabric 'protector'/'screen' included. It has velcro attached as if it supposed to be optional. My Best guess is that it's used to reduce the light coming from the screen.
Hope you know what i mean?
Yeah i dont think mine came with one
Can you still see through the camera during the day.
yes
You should look at the pard 007 night vision
Thx for your yfi #fromindonesia
Is it capable of recording via sd card?
I dont beleive it can recors
I own a megaorei version 2 which is very similar to this and that particular version can, though from what Alex(?) shared previously, this particular model does NOT have that capability
Is there a review and do you have any thoughts on how to rig the kit for just walking at night to see what is there in the country/non-urban?
Sorry this wasnt a review just an instalation/instructions video. That would be interesting idea posibly helmet mounted might work
Is there a monitor that records as well
Nice i didnt know tyat offered that
Do you have to zero in the scope in advance?
Yes you should
2 questions. 1 do you have to rezero your scope after mounting the night vision device. 2. Does the Camara screen affect your natural night vision?
you might need to rezero, for the only reason that you would need to remove your optic and that may cause some very slight point of impact change. but if you have good scope rings that shouldn't happen

in theory it should work but likely you will need to make some modifications as this unit was specifically designed for the riflescope
..does it work with a long eye-relief scope?

Do you mean the infrared light? It emits a almost dead like looking light, looking into the scope from the objective woul look the same
