Bought for 9 yr old son instead of a toy version. For the money, excellent value! Can see clearly to end of street in dark. I/R shines red so you aren’t totally stealth but close to it. Zoom feature could be better but nothing to complain about.
Ignore the claimed magnification. You can see perfectly clear in pitch darkness. Easy to use.
So impressed!! I didnt think I could get this kind of value for this price. I use rechargeable NiZn AA for the high drain. That or Duracells. (They start at a slightly higher V than Energizer) Easy to use, great zoom, doesn’t leave you blinded to the dark after use like other cheaper sets. I love them. It’s also so nice to use both of your eyes vs a monocular. Comfortable strap, comfortable eye piece. The eye piece/forehead rest fits around my glasses comfortably.
I woud have liked a case to been included I use them for wildlife watching
Wow… this is an exception piece of NV equipment. I couldn’t believe how unbelievable the picture clarity is and how easy it is to use!
At 99 Night Fox have nailed this…. amazing.
Il display troppo luminoso e nei cambi di visuale da dentro-fuori da un po fastidio, poi se non si usano accortezze il viso viene illuminato e si visibili.
Anche il campo visivo ristretto e non adatto a brevi distanze, ma per la visione da lontano (provato a notte fonda fino circa 100mt.) fa egregiamente il suo dovere.
Fantastic piece of kit, and great for studying night life
Very easy to use, good build quality. Could use more magnification, but good value for money.
Seriously the best we have used for the price. Night vision is a scary thing when out on your property and you see eyes moving but if your up for it definitely recommend it! Got this for my husband for one of his anniversary gifts and he was so ecstatic he’s currently at war with coyotes and raccoons on our place!
This is amazing!!! after several days of messing around with it i can say for certain that it may not be the best but for the price it was well worth it just be sure to get recharables because it does eat through 8 batteries like crazy
The product works amazingly well, great fun to use for wildlife and amazing for spotting protestors breaching my site at night. As night security this is an invaluable tool. Only downside is the battery life, does not last as long as advertised however still not bad.
As a pure night scope..fair as an IR night Scope Awesome The zoom is perfect and IR feature is perfect.
Using it for hunting. First night of use saw a Cayote 80 yards. With the IR looked as clear as daylight. Cayote never knew I was there. How far can I see… don’t know yet, but I think easy 100 plus yards. Would I recommend…Yes
Does the IR light bother animals .. doesn’t seem to.
Was iets groter dan op de foto te zien was.het apparaa
Prvoyez une housse car cette dernire n’est pas fournie et c’est dommage. Pour finir donc, je conseille ce produit made in China si votre demande est de dcouvrir quelle faune vient fouiner aux alentours de chez vous, vous ne serez pas dus.
Easy to use for little money .batteries can be a handful to put in the second one Is coveted by the top spring and trickery but good value for the money .
ive tried a few of these and this is the best in this price bracket. but do be warned its def not high tech military grade, but is pretty good for the price.
If you going this price range this is the one to ge
Used it for a bit, the seller is a cool dude.
Bad:
– The screen inside is a bit bright, if you have natural night vision you’ll want to close one eye while you use it as the light will make everything seem dark again
– It works as a flashlight, but with IR. The IR light shines (invisibly) and the screen lets you see how it reflects. Better for close-range sight (i.e. a mile or less).
Good:
– Super easy to use – literal plug and play, except with batteries instead of a plug
– Well made – The entire thing is made of hard plastic. Nothing shakes inside and it seems resistant to the outdoors
– Eye visor – The visor area has a rubber cover to stop any light from the display from bleeding out. It also provides enough room for those wearing glasses to see with ease
– Display – Everything is grayscale, reflective surfaces (slippery puddles, the eyes of animals, etc..) really stand out more than they otherwise would. The contrast is also high enough to ensure that everything is clear and crisp.
Overall, great product.
I own a classic green field monocular night vision scope which is tough getting use to. The binocular vision is much easier to look through and mush less disorienting. It’s a video like screen which requires the infrared attachment to function in full darkness but the light intensity feature means you dial up or down the amount of infrared you need. It also better bright light protections.
I was looking for a reasonably-price night vision unit I could break out when sitting on my deck at night and looking at what critters were wandering around. The typical devices are designed for use 100-300+ yards out which doesn’t work for me as my woods is literally surrounding me. This device was just the trick!
The positives are the quite intuitive controls and excellent image 100 yards and closer. The only reason it’s not 5/5 stars is the thing is pretty darn heavy and a bit large…all probably necessary due to 4 AA battery power source but something to consider when purchasing.
Good for short distance in no/low light with built in IR light. Actually worked much better than I expected for long distance when I used it in conjunction with my IR spot light.
The nightfox is easy to use and very effective in tracking my dogs when outdoors at night. There is a slight stiffnes with the focus wheel, but not a major problem. I do recommend it.
No soy muy conocedor de este tipo de productos, pero este dispositivo funciona bastante bien, se ve muy bien en la oscuridad realiza bien su funcin para lo que se compr, lo nico negativo que le veo es que la carga de la batera no dura lo que indica en las instrucciones, sera mejor su hubiera opcin de cargar directamente con corriente elctrica.
I was not expecting a whole lot, bought this for my grandson as a toy. Well, its a really good toy, light up to about 100 feet, nice clear picture. My only complaint is that it is not rechargeable, it uses batteries. Yes, you can use rechargeable batteries but you cant charge them in the unit….I know, for the price they’re amazing, this is a really minor issue.
Works well out to 150 yards and the IR illuminator is good. Using rechargeable batteries instead of alkaline. batteries.
This worked very well and only on the 1st setting. The other settings only improve a little. But at least it works and when I let our pups out at night, I can see them. Even the black haired pup and her little white paws. She can disappear, even at twilight.
Bought these for my fiuture son-in-law for Christmas. You would think he was a 5 yr old with a new dump truck. They go out “looking” at everything now about 5 nights week. It was a real hit as a gift. Works great can see very clear. They end up with a truck full of guys just riding and seeing stuff.
Good night vision for the money. My only issue is the distance isn’t the greatest….maybe 100yds at best.
Is a good value for your money. I use it at night to see what is out there before giving me away with a light. We have all kind of animals in the mountain, bears, cayotes, deer. It pleases me to see them, when I am not a threat to them. Not great, not bad, it does the job. Thanks. Oscar Rame
I wanted a night vision device to see if the coyotes out back were coming into my yard. I did not need it for combat or hunting! My tree lines are anywhere from 50 to 75 yards from my back deck. As advertised, I can see trees, rabbits, deer, and cats clearly at these ranges. I was amazed at how clear the image is at normal and 2X size. The IR intensity increases as described. The viewer allows me to wear my glasses: you hold the device at the distance from your face that allows for clear viewing. For backyard use, this Nightfox device works beautifully for a reasonable price. I would highly recommend it for uses such as mine.
It does its job well, ( I bought it for my wife as we live on a farm, and she wanted to observe the wildlife we have, in low light conditions, and / or at night.) For that it does the job well, and is good for a wearer of glasses, which she does.
My only dislike is that it doesn’t come with any “cover”, i.e. a bag or case! This surprised me as all standard binoculars, and optical items usually have a case. For this product, nothing at all. Even a simple cloth or canvas bag would be a welcome protection addition to the product, and would make it 5 star instead of the 4 i have given it.
This night vision camera is easy enough to use, and for the money doesn’t have bad night vision. This is the first time I have bought any time of night vision camera, but the photos uploaded by others look better then what I have seen from my own unit even after adjusting the focus control. Wish they were better for the money, but I am happy with them for my use which is just to see what kind of animal(s) the dog is barking at on my 300ft x 300ft lot . Trying to use them to look in the fields next to me the image gets fuzzy quickly beyond 350ft and beyond 60 yards I can see the eyes of an animal but not what kind of animal is there. Fortunately the animal does get spooked by the IR light and goes away, if I was interested in killing the animal in the field I would not get the shot off.
It is verry good and im happy with the produc
Bought for my Son xmas. Have tried briefly and impressed with this product.
Great value for money
Works great. Easy to handle and operate the controls. I wear glasses and there were no issues in looking and focussing to get a clear view. There was plenty of IR illumination to view a fair distance. The included strap is comfortable. The daytime lense cap can be a little difficult to take off. For the price I am quite pleased with these.
Great value. Works as expected. Animals appear fuzzy, but everything else crisp and amazing visibility. For the price, worth every penny. Needs a little more quality engineered into the battery compartment battery connectors. Not robust at all. Otherwise would have been 5 stars.
I haven’t had much chance to use it yet but it seems to work great played with it for a minute. Though it seems very well made and not cheap like one might think, giving it’s low price.
The IR spotter is good for the money, its simple to use and the quality is good depending on what your quarry is.
I love it, the field of view is brilliant, the zoom function is well worth having and I would recommend it to anyone.
The only draw back is its a bit heavy due to the 8 batteries it requires but other than that im very happy with it…
This is a great opportunity to explore the world using night vision on a budget. The ease of operation is perfect for young or new users. As a former user of first generation Starlight Scopes in the ’60’s & ’70’s, the Nightforce is much more user friendly, with improved performance. I recommend the Nightforce 100V as an economical entry to night vision technology, and a great way to see what is stirring in your surroundings while dark.
I bought this as a gift for a person who has deer in their garden. Very good piece, ticks all the boxes for the price range. One thing to remember is if you’re using it behind a window the light from the screen in the machine will reflect/illuminate against the window and interfere with your view. it requires a good amount of batteries as far as I can remember.
Great little gadget for seeing wildlife at night. Not perfect resolution but great enough for seeing what’s there. Very happy with the item and how quickly it was delivered.
Would like the zoom to be longer, but amazing for the price paid
Great piece of kit for the price, so easy to use…only thing that needs altering please laserware the night shutdown screen is to bright at night…Sorry it doesn’t affect the operating of the unit…but it needs to be dimmed.
I bought the Nightfox 100V to view wildlife in low light and totally dark conditions at they perform very well.
Easy to view badgers, foxes and bats. Excellent value for money.
Long battery life too.
Not expecting military quality for this kind of money but am impressed with what this little unit can do at such a low price point. The image quality is better than I was expecting and the illuminator works well enough to read road signs from several hundred feet away.
Good product for seeing in the dark. I camp a lot and take these along. Before heading for the sleeping bag, I take these with me on a night walk. I have seen deer browsing at about 150 yards, owls, raccoons and a lot of deer mice eyes. Really like being able to see with both eyes.
Interestingly it picks up other Infra Red light sources such as my wildlife cam and nearby security camera..
The zoom is 2x but that is fine for my purposes.
Quite heavy when batteries in but not excessively.
NB doesn’t work very well through glass as the IR light is reflected back into the lens
I’m very please with my Nightfox 100V the unit is very simple to use and the picture quality and capability are amazing for the price. I’m not using this unit to hunt but simply use around my home in a rural area along with my Pulsar helion thermal monocular. I’m sure this unit would suffice most people. I primarily use my thermal to detection and now I can use my Nightfox to help with identification. My only opinion for improvement would be to change the power supply from 8 AA’s to another common size to lessen the number of batteries required. Maybe 18650’s or something along those lines. Also adding a memory slot for recording capability.
can see up to 100meters clearly. couldnt test it in pitch black conditions yet, but i am very happy with its perfomance. 8 XAA. You better use rechargeable ones. Nice packaging and easy to use. Can be used for day time aswell.
I like it’s usefulness out in the field as I have a farm and I like to monitor it at night to see who or what is lurking. Has good picture and value for money
I thought this might no be great considering the cheap price. But the night vision is amazing. Did not even have to crank it up all the way. Very pleased.
Nothing to dislike, I use it for watching hedgehogs in the garden.. which is perfect for me.. more professional person might want more magnification.
Working really well batteries seem to be performing well
Will be trying unit out in woods later looking for bunnies
Do not expect a drastic night vision unit with wow factor. But it is pretty good for cost, does as expected for price and no real complaints. Batteries last a good long time, and unit is light and comfortable.
Excellent product delighted with prompt delivery vey happy with whole shopping experience
Bought for a fun birthday present. Appears to be working well.
Works well for the price. Have used ‘NVG’s while in ARMY these do show objects in the dark.
After trying out this product belonging to a friend, I bought one. It’s amazing, the quality is far superior than more expensive ones I’ve had in the past. I would recommend it to anyone wanting a night vision binocular.
Fantastic value for money! I was amazed at how crystal clear the night vision was, the only negative I can think of is that there is a very small light at the front of the binocholars but despite this I would recommend these binicholars.
Pretty good for the price not high quality but still durable and functional for spotting around dusk/nigh
Very impressed with these night vision goggles. Had small issue with focus wheel, emailed company and we were advised how to remedy and it was resolved within the hour. Excellent customer service. Would definitely recommend.
These are fabulous and a fun novelty item. Sadly- we sent ours back as it eats the batteries (8 aa at a time) and didn’t focas very far. Would be great if It was rechargeable and a bit clearer . We used it for looking in our woods behind our house which was fun for the kids .
The NV works well , above expectations.
Is a lot of NV, for little money.
Cool unit. Takes a little getting used to the controls but works well once you get the hang of it.
Brilliant device for the price it’s a Christmas presents…had a look last night in the garden works well very happy with it thanks .
Worked as advertised, good product. Picture can be better, but worked for fun and to see animals at night.
After a wobbly start,and help from the seller my husband looked out of the windows,with his birthday present and wow there was foxes,and a very happy husband, this product is very reasonably priced,and the quality much better then expected
L ho provato all’imbrunire, con un filo di luce, e si vede alla grande ben oltre i 200 mt.
Nel buio totale ad 80/90 mt vedi bene un gatto e comunque riesci ad individuarlo fino a 120 mt (ho usato un telemetro) Una casa, nel buio totale, con gli IR a 7, la vedi anche a 300 mt.
Importante mettere a fuoco con la semplice rotellina.
Per quanto riguarda le batterie non posso ancora dire niente, l ho provato e riprovato per circa due ore e l indicatore me le da ancora piene.
Non essendo un monocolo non stanca per niente l occhio.
Non ho paragoni con altri prodotti, ma se vi serve per un uso amatoriale pi che ottimo, unica pecca sono i bottoni di eccensione e ir che quando vengono premuti fanno un lieve rumorino (potrebbero farvi scoprire da qualche animale)
Comunque CONSIGLIATISSIMO !
Spedizione sempre precisa.
Am absolute bargain worth every penny does what it says on the tin and for the an absolute amazing bit of kit would recommend it to everyone for night work
Being able to see in the dark..lot of fun.
Fantastic bit of kit, does exactly what it says it does
Impressive. Very good value indeed I made the right decision when I pressed the ” buy now ” button. Can’t wait to get out in the hooley for a night or two. This will improve my rabbit shooting results and while night fishing I’ll be able to keep an eye on the water and my neighbors antics. More than happy with the purchase at the moment. Will update this review should any issues occur. Thanks for reading this short review. Have been using this night vision device weekly now. My advice would be to purchase several packets of batteries from the Pound Shop as it chews up rechargeable batteries fast. None rechargeable last a reasonable time in comparison. Another bonus is if you’re suffering from noisy wildfowl through out the night the infrared beam appears to keep them quite when pointed towards them. Update: after splashing out around 15 on some pukka top quality rechargeable batteries of the type suitable for use in trail cameras I’m finding the battery useable life much improved.
Great product does the job description ideal for night work
The number of batteries required (8) is pretty steep, so I advise using good quality rechargeable AA batteries; I use Panasonic Eneloop batteries and they are more than sufficient. With intermittent use, I got 3-5 hours from them.
Range is great, and although the zoom is digital, the sensor is of sufficient resolution to make no real difference in the output quality.
Simple equipment, but very good. Just don’t expect military-grade gear.
I was very surprised by this piece of kit, crisp clear bright images in total darkness, on the lowest it output setting, highly recommended.
Was concerned the batteries would drain quickly. Device was on for at least 1.5 hours at IR level 3 and plenty of life left in the batteries.
For 120ish the image quality was good. It degrades when digital zoom is applied but that’s to be expected.
I was impressed with the IR function and didn’t really need to go beyond level 3 of which there are 7 levels.
I purchased this over other devices as I was attracted to the eye piece but on reflection this reflects back on my face and startles game. I plan on fitting a red filter so not such an issue.
A couple of things that I would improve.
The camera lens when removed dangles from a string and makes subtle noises when hitting the casing of the device. This also startled the game. I would have something moulded on the case to stow the lens cap away.
The zoom and IR buttons were sometimes difficult to locate. I would often find myself looking for the buttons. This might just require some familiarity and further use of the device.
The case feels very plastic (which I’m sure sounds obvious). I was concerned that I might break it and would like a neoprene case for it.
On my first trip out I saw plenty of wildlife. Badgers, deer, hare, rabbits and had lots of eye shine that was hidden by foliage so I couldn’t determine what was there.
With any night vision it’s difficult to judge distances and this is no different. I was seeing clearly out to 100m and could focus using the thumb wheel underneath.
For the price I’m pleased but would like to see some alterations (but appreciate that I was using them under specific conditions).
Thank you the order that was purchased came within the time stated and it seems working perfectly.
As a daytime binocular it is not very useful but for night vision (or in the dark) it is excellent because it allows us to see well at distances of over 200 meters and has 7 levels of brightness that we can adjust.
At night (or in the dark), up to 10 meters, we can see well and distinguish small objects. As distance increases the definition is lost, but up to 100 meters we can see a dog or even a cat.
Given the price seems like a pretty interesting and good night vision binoculars.
