#DualTube

The sun is about to set on this Friday and you know what that brings, Friday Night Lights. Your source for night vision and thermal-related content. Tonight we take a close look at the Nocturn Industries UANVB-R, the metal ruggedized Katana dual tube night vision housing.

This Friday Night Lights we will continue the Dual Tube Spotlight mini-series where we take a look at binocular night vision goggles. This week we have the Elbit Systems of America F5032. It is also known as the SBNVG and PVS-31D. The Friday Night Lights series is brought to you by ATN Corp, manufacturers of night vision and thermal optics like the THOR LT. As with all of our sponsored series, Friday Night Lights will continue to bring you unbiased news and reviews from a variety of companies.

Good evening everyone and welcome back to TFB’s Friday Night Lights series. We are excited to announce that FNL is now sponsored by ATN Corp, manufacturers of night vision and thermal optics like the THOR LT. As with all of our sponsored series, Friday Night Lights will continue to bring you unbiased news and reviews from a variety of companies. Now it is time for another Dual Tube Spotlight. This time we will be taking a close look at the AB Night Vision MOD-3 system. It is a modular dual tube night vision system that features quick detach monocular pods.

On this week’s edition of Friday Night Lights, we bring you another Dual Tube Spotlight. This is where we review a binocular night vision goggle. This time we are looking at a newcomer to the night vision scene, Nocturn Industries. They are coming out with a 3D printed dual tube night vision binocular called the UANVB Katana.

This week on Friday Night Lights we will go back to basics. Last year I wrote “ How to use Night Vision” so now we will talk about the benefits of one tube, two tube, green tube, white tube. Should you buy and use a monocular vs a binocular system? Should you get green phosphor or white phosphor?

For this week’s Friday Night Lights we resume our Dual Tube Spotlight and look at a new bino NVG from ATN. The ATN PS31 is an articulating housing that resembles an L3 PVS-31 but it has features that set it apart from the pinnacle of dual tube night vision goggles.

For this week’s edition of Friday Night Lights, we resume our Dual Tube Spotlight and take a look at probably the most popular articulating dual tube bino housing on the market. The DTNVG (Dual Tube Night Vision Goggle) is made in Luxembourg by Act In Black and has taken over the commercial market as the must-have bino housing. Let’s take a closer look.

A rather newcomer to the night vision industry, AGM Global Vision has a budget-friendly dual tube night vision goggle called the NVG-50. Actually, it looks a lot like the ARMASIGHT BNVD-51 which was brought under FLIR for a time. The NVG-50 is feature-packed and boasts a 50° FOV all for an affordable price of just around $1,000 for just the housing with glass. Sounds too good to be true. Let’s take a closer look at the NVG-50.

For Friday Night Lights I want to start a new ongoing series called Dual Tube Spotlight where we take a look at specific dual tube night vision goggles. I have already gone into some detail about various monocular devices and have spotlighted some interesting dual tube goggles like the PVS-21s. There are a number of dual tube designs even the Chinese BNVD-1431 but now we will spotlight these binocular NVGs and give them the attention they deserve. This week we will take a close look at the AN/PVS-15.

Well, things have escalated quickly since my last Friday Night Lights. I wrote about modifying dummy PVS-31 into functional night vision devices. I also mentioned a new night vision housing dubbed the BNVD-1431. In a very short amount of time, I was able to get my hands on a BNVD-1431 housing. It is a PVS-31 clone but more importantly uses PVS-14 optics. There is a bit of drama and mystery surrounding this newly desirable night vision housing so let’s take a closer look.
