    it's going to be at least $200-something. night vision's gotten cheap, but not that cheap.



    regardless, i'm in, as long as we can get some specs on the goggles beforehand, or it turns out to be under $120.

    @nutbastard: I believe the goggles are monocular in design (only one sensor, not one per eye), and are probably using older technology, hence the absolute hugeness. My prediction is that the goggles may be $70 by themselves, maybe even less, which leads to $120 to $130 for the final bundle.

    Oh....My......God....



    I have to have this. Sad to say though, I probably won't be able to afford it. :p

    On second thought, though, I don't know what the hell I might do with them.....

    "Alternating modes" probably refers to the fact that you can have just the light amplification, or turn on the infrared LED array for even more visibility.



    Some surveillance cameras have similar IR LEDs. Since human eyes can't see near-IR light, but digital camera sensors can (and thus can translate it into the visible spectrum for playback), they make the perfect source of non-visible illumination.

    @Rhainor: Yea, you can see the ir leds when he turns the front towards the camera. There's probably not much inside that big assed housing. Small cheap ass camera you can pick up for $12 on fleabay and a small display.

    The way I'm going to be using those night vision goggles, I hope they can stand a beating from an angry woman.
