AGM PVS-14 Tactical Residual Light Amplifier Gen 2+ (Photonis Commercial) White

The PVS-14 from US-based AGM Global Vision is a high-end residual light amplifier with a Gen2+ Photonis Commercial image tube in White Phosphor. Recognized worldwide for their unmatched quality, reliability and ergonomic designs, the PVS residual light amplifiers were originally developed for use by the U.S. Army.

The AGM PVS-14 is among the best monocular night vision goggles available in the market. The PVS-14 has a 26mm lens with a wide field of view of 40 degrees and focuses as low as 25 cm. The optical magnification is 1x, but optional optical 3x or 5x magnification lenses are also available.

Quality of the picture tube

This version of the PVS-14 features a Gen 2+ PHOTONIS Commercial picture tube in White Phosphor (light white/blue color offering contrast like black and white). The picture tube has an average FOM of 1300-1600. FOM stands for Figure of Merit and indicates the overall performance of a picture tube. The higher the FOM, the higher the brightness and sharpness (and the less noise).

Photonis picture tubes are among the best in the market and are in no way comparable in quality to the average Gen 2+ picture tube. For this reason, you can work for a long time without infrared auxiliary light because the picture tube can convert even the slightest bit of residual light into razor-sharp visual images. This makes these scopes highly suitable for airsoft, tactical applications or MIL-SIMs. In fact, cheaper, digital night vision scopes always require you to use IR emitters, which means you are immediately visible to your adversaries/enemy. Of course, when you really need IR light (e.g. in a dark room without any residual light), you can simply turn on the IR Illuminator. This is located on the PVS-14.

Helmet mounting and hands free use

Optionally available mounts allow you to mount the PVS-14 to different helmet types. This product also comes standard with a head set (goggle kit). This allows you to attach the night vision goggle to your head to keep your hands free. The goggle kit features a flip-up system, which allows you to easily and safely "flip up" the night vision goggle and it then remains firmly in position. The head system features adjustable, comfortable head straps and a chin-protection cap with built-in cushion.

Application AGM PVS-14 (White Phosphor)

The AGM PVS-14 is among the best night vision goggles on the market, making it an excellent choice for professionals and demanding enthusiasts. Think for example of airsoft, tactical applications, hunting, survival or nature observations. With the right accessories, you can attach the scope to a helmet or use it hands-free using the included headset. Also included is a front protective lens, which protects the lens from airsoft balls, for example.

This night scope is equipped with a residual light-intensifying image tube, so you cannot use the device during the day. The device will automatically turn off when too much light is present.
