Product Review
The powerful Night Owl Explorer Marine Pro Night Vision Scope is the ultimate, premium performing monocular that combines exceptional engineering advancements of a 100% waterproof body structure with features such as a 48mm high-grade camera quality lens with 5x image magnification. The solid construction and rubber-coated night blue finish combined with ergonomic soft-touch control buttons and indicator lights make the NOCX5M a top line performer.
The built-in infrared light source allows one to see in pitch black. The image is monochrome (greenish) and is distorted towards the edges, sort of like if you are looking through a bubble. Even so, the effective viewing angle is wide enough for comfortable viewing. If you adjust the eye-piece to your eye, the focus ring allows getting a very sharp image from just a few feet to infinity!
It works like a powerful spotlight, directing a very bright beam visible only through the lens. The deep blue rubber outer coating made for a nice look and feel, while also weatherproofing the unit. The handy strap held it tight to the palm, placing both the Power and the Illuminator buttons directly under your fingers for easy control. The care taken with the Night Owl extends to the smallest of details, including power management: Simply setting it down turns the power off so you will never accidently run the batteries down
