The “W” in WGEN2 stands for “White Phosphor”. White phosphor technology provides the user with a black and white image rather than the traditional green image. This can provide better contrast and depth perception than green phosphor.
Maintaining your night vision goggles is crucial to ensure their optimal performance and longevity. Here are some essential tips for proper maintenance:
- Cleaning: Regularly clean the lenses and body of the goggles using a soft, lint-free cloth. Avoid using abrasive materials or harsh chemicals that could damage the lens coatings.
- Storage: Store your night vision goggles in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Use a protective case when not in use to prevent dust, debris, and potential impacts.
- Battery Care: If your night vision goggles use batteries, remove them when not in use for extended periods. This prevents battery leakage and preserves their lifespan.
- Avoid Exposure: Avoid exposing the goggles to bright light sources, especially during the daytime. Sudden exposure to bright light can damage the sensitive components.
- Professional Check-ups: Periodically have your night vision goggles inspected and serviced by a professional or authorized service center to identify and fix any issues. Feel free to contact us for any follow up services to our night vision products.
By following these maintenance practices, you can prolong the life of your night vision goggles and keep them in optimal working condition for your nighttime adventures.
Yes, SPI night vision binoculars are tripod mountable.
Generation 3 night vision binoculars offer superior performance in low-light conditions. They have a higher resolution, longer battery life, and better light amplification than previous generations. They also often include features like auto-gating, which prevents the device from being damaged by exposure to bright lights.
SPI night vision binoculars are made using top-grade aircraft aluminum alloy, making them lightweight, long-lasting, and durable.
Night vision binoculars have a wide range of applications. They are commonly used by the military and law enforcement for surveillance and operations in low-light conditions. Hunters and wildlife enthusiasts use them for spotting animals in the dark. They are also used in aviation, for night flights, and in search and rescue operations.
Yes, while they are commonly used by the military and law enforcement agencies, Generation 3 night vision devices are available to civilian users for a wide range of applications including aviation, driving, demining, etc.
Night vision devices are divided into generations, each more technologically advanced than the last. Generation 1 devices were first used in World War II and have basic functionality. Generation 2 devices, developed in the 1970s, feature an improved image-intensifier tube using a micro-channel plate. Generation 3 devices, used by the military and law enforcement, have even better image intensifiers and often include features like auto-gating to prevent the device from being damaged by exposure to bright lights.
Night vision technology allows for the visualization of images in low levels of light, improving the user’s ability to see in the dark. The technology enhances ambient visible light and converts near-infrared light into visible light. Night vision devices may be passive, relying solely on ambient light, or may be active, using an IR (infrared) illuminator to better visualize the environment.
