Bering Optical Wake2 2.5x40 Gen I Compact Night Vision Monocular
The Bering Optics Wake2 is a first-rate Generation 1 compact night vision monocular that provides a clear and clean image. The Wake2s ease of use makes it perfect for observational applications. At 200 yards the field of view is more than 50 yards which makes it ideal for viewing moving objects.Wake2 has a built in powerful IR illuminator that enables clear viewing in low ambient light conditions at ranges up to 50 yards. The ergonomically designed, durable, satin textured body is very comfortable and makes the users experience much more enjoyable. The lens focusing ring provides a fast, precise and efficient way to quickly refocus the device. In addition, the Wake2 is 15% more energy efficient than its competitors, resulting in a sixty hour battery life. This is one of the best in its class. Finally the slide-in groove firmly holds the lens cap to the monocular to prevent misplacing the lens cap.

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.
