20alex09 0 Posted May 29, 2014 Report Share Posted May 29, 2014 I decided to build a DIY NV rig a few months back, it's very similar to Rolaids design and is very effective despite the low cost to put together. I think I've been bitten by the DIY NV tinkering bug so I'm already ordering bits to put together a scope-less system. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It works very well considering the low cost to build, range is over 200 yards although you can pick up eyshine a lot further. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

20alex09 0 Posted June 11, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 11, 2014 If you search for Rolaids on YouTube he's got some videos of a very similar set up, I think he's also got a parts list on there. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
