night vision lamp filter and monocular

[GOSSYOVSLAND 15]

Hi, i am thinking about buying a N.V monocular and was wondering if i used it with my striker lamp fitted with an infa red filter would this work?

if any body does this or has i would like to know if it works,the monocular ive been looking at is just a cheap one with not that good distance and was hopeing that the lamp would give it the distance.

Thanks,Gossy

We use exactly that setup for spotting - we use a deben mini pro with a filter, rabbits are spottable at yards, foxes even further. Then I have a digital add-on on my scope to take the shot.

 

Good cheap way of getting started, battery packs can get a bit cumbersome but it's so efficient it's ridiculous!

Good point - I should have said, don't buy a filter! Get some filter material, about £20, and make your own up! Google 'Alana Ecology', they sell it.

Do the filters make that much difference? i'm thinking about getting one for my clu lite as they are only about £20 to use with my gen 1 yukon scope, what are they like?
