Armasight Dark Strider Night Vision Binocular
The ATN Night Scout-VX Night Vision binoculars were designed to be a cost effective night vision binocular without giving up quality or night vision performance. 5x magnification provides for a great range even in night conditions. They are a compact, lightweight, dual image tube system that provides for depth perception and the comfort of use you would receive out of a pair of binoculars.
The ATN Night Scout-VX is a Gen 1+ model, but is available in several image tube configurations to satisfy all budgets and performance requirements. The best part is that if there is no light to amplify, with the help of the infrared illuminator, you can cut through the darkness. The Night Scout-VXs are the best value on the market for night vision binoculars.

Gen 1 Night Vision
1st generation is currently the most popular type of night vision in the world. Utilizing the basic principles described in detail in our guide, a 1st generation unit will amplify the existing light several thousand times letting you clearly see in the dark. These units provide a bright and sharp image at a low cost, which is perfect, whether you are boating, observing wildlife, or providing security for your home. You may notice the following when you are looking through a 1st Gen. unit. A slight high-pitched whine when the unit is on. The image you see may be slightly blurry around the edges. This is known as Geometric Distortion. When you turn a 1st Gen. unit off it may glow green for some time. These are inherent characteristics of a 1st Gen. unit and are normal.
