Night Vision Devices or NVDs are a much more common piece of support gear as compared to just a few years ago. Today quality NVDs can be purchased at a reasonable price, the utility of owning a set of NVDs is not lost on the average person who fully understands how much an NVD can enhance their low light / no light defensive capabilities . When purchasing NVDs keep in mind certain considerations….
The price of quality night vision is much more affordable today, but we don’t want to make uninformed decisions and find out that the newly purchased NVD will not suit the requirements of our specific needs.
What exactly is Night Vision? It’s magic. When one looks through a little tube at night a special magic happens which allows the user to see what was once unseen. Or it could be called science, either way both accounts seem pretty much on point. Night vision has many different names; starlight scope, Infrared scope, night vision, Night Vision Device (NVD), Night Optical Device (NOD) Night Vision Goggles (NVGs) and the list goes on. All of these names are generally correct.
