What is the millikelvin rating of the Sidekick 640? Edit: Nevermind about the above question. I contacted them directly and was informed the NETD is 40mk. Also, what remote USB battery pack do you recommend?

i also love how these guys never actually show what the view looks like

only 10k$

Hey Will... Been a while since you made this video but very informative... I was wondering if you have had a chance to compare this unit with the N-Vision Nox 18. I see there are a few different features between the Two, but basically, I was interested to see if the Nox had better recognition distance than the Armasight ? It appears to be a significant difference and wondered if the extra is worth it. Having a small Thermal helmet mounted along with a Pvs-14 would help finding warm things before they find you...

can you still power the device on with just a singular pod attached?

Are you going to have the manual gain Dtnvs on or would that be redundant?

Can anyone confirm if this bridge is compatible with the AGM StingIR thermal? I presume some sort of adapter would be required to connect the mini-rail to the AGM.

New to night vision, will a thermal clip-on work just as well on the SG units? Specifically the JerryCE5 :)

Great video!!

Which mount are you currently using for your personal setup?

Why would you need a laser at that point? Just get two of these, one zoomed out and the other zoomed all the way in.

This is by far the best dual tube housing out there. I wish we could by the NYX from Theon for custom builds…

Does the 1531 use the same “proprietary glass” as the 31A and GPNVG?

Hey nitewalker got a question for ya. What would be the best way to bridge mount a pvs 14 and a pvs 18 to make duals? After researching the only option i have found is the KVC bridge with the pvs 14 shoe and then a shoe that connects to the monocular lens and then mount those both to the kvc bridge. Any suggestions?

But this is Not the smart gain right? And the L3 hast more res

Man, you are really helping me out on this journey of researching night vision.

I have these. I got this from you guys. Have you noticed some play or rocking on the PVS side at the screw mount? I’m reluctant to really gorilla arm the screw in place. Would you recommend a touch of blue thread lock?

Great product, but for the love of God quit smacking your lips

Would you recommend a tanto, pvs-14, or rvm-14 for bridging with a thermal? I like how much lighter the tanto and rvm-14 are than the pvs-14, but the tanto doesn't have manual gain and the rvm-14 seems like it would be harder to resell since it's so new?

Is this the same Elbit tube that is in the 31D?

I managed to build a monocular with 92° FOV. But it's rather big and heavy. Lightweight wide angle binoculars seem like the best compromise at the moment.

Nice informative video - Thank You!

Love your stuff as always dude. Still saving for some nods in the future but that day will come. Thanks for the knowledge!

wonder if NoiseFighters will do a metal mount for thermals? I own all the mounts in poly, AX14, Pano 1st & 2nd gen & the mount for my NOX18 (forgot the name) and they have been fine once the 1st updates for the 1st gen came out. all the failure to stay tight issues went away with the washers and hardware updates. with the NOX arms the PanoBridge has been really nice to go dual spectrum with. great job laying out the options Will, thanks for your time.

Where can I buy that kind of battery pack?

If she takes good care of her feet then you know fo'sho she takin wonderful care of the poom poom !!

Do you prefer gen 2 green or gen 3 euro (blue)?

The 21’s look like a sad space invader.

I love my xlsh i will get an l3 one day soon though and kick the elbit to my gf and use the g.p 14 as a loaner

Is there a way to stop them from turning on when you stowe them at full articulation on top of the helmet? It seems like the magnet is sensing the steel in the G 24.

Does the KVC bridge setup have wiring to the G24 mount hinge to turn off the pvs14s when flipped up?

Photonis is not Gen 2. It’s not classified as a generation. If it was they would call their tubes Gen 2. They don’t. Get it right. You’re like the dumb people who think the day cap is for zeroing night vision during the day. They auto shut off. Y’all don’t have a clue

What helmet do you use to mount them?

Thanks

👍

Were is your shop???

Hey. Thanks for the video. With the mini rail adapter for maybe a Flir, does the new mini rail adapter cant the Flir Breach or does it help to keep it in a flat panoramic view?

Where did you find the extended battery cap for the breach?

Did they ever release the lower cost ECOTI without all of the encrypted features that most of us don’t use?

Supergain is definitely worth it. I was torn between Supergain and standard gain but i am definitely happy i forked out the extra beans for a high spec Supergain. My neighbor has a high spec standard gain device (2700 ish FOM with a SNR of 38 and EBI of .3) and even though my has a FOM of only 2502 (39.1 SNR .3 EBI 64 RES) it preforms better in low light and looks extraordinarily sharp. I think his gain is like 66k and mine is like 108k. I dont really understand how a brighter output effects the light input but all i can think of is that they are both taking in the same amount of light but the higher gain just means you can see it better. 🫶

Thanks again for making these videos! Appreciate the help .. Armasight released a Firmware update #5067 for the Sidekick 640 , just downloaded and updated but havent had a chance to dig into it yet to see any changes

Super informative. Thanks.

Are they al sett to max gain ?

Great video! Thank you

If you got a set for free, would you put them into another housing? Make 2 PVS-14’s or a more durable housing for on the ground

Nice job! Thank you

Great job and thank you for the time and effort to make this review. Very helpful! Nice job

Is there such a thing as a scope ring that is attached to a dovetail, in order to attach a round scope-like thermal to a bridge system and a G 24 helmet mount?

What kind of degree do you need to get into this industry? Mechanical engineering? Physics?

Why do you prefer the RNVG over these?
