The Ruggedized Night Vision Goggle (RNVG) is an extremely tough, full featured night vision binocular. When a night vision binocular is dropped and broken, it will most likely fail at the joint between the optical pods and the bridge. However, both the optical pods and bridge on the RNVG are CNC machined from solid billet 7075 aluminum to prevent breakage. This material is 36% stronger than most common steel, making the RNVG the most rugged night vision goggle in production. Careful design combined with advanced machining techniques has kept the weight down to a very competitive level. The RNVG weighs in at 555 grams, without a battery installed.
Any user familiar with a PVS-14 will find the controls to be intuitive. The switch and focusing functions are identical to the PVS-14. The switch has 3 positions: Off, On, and On with IR illuminator. Like the PVS-14, the switch does not cut power to the tubes when changing positions to turn the IR illuminator on. The RNVG has IR signaling capability, and as a safety feature the switch knob must be pulled out to turn the IR illuminator on.
The RNVG utilizes a single CR123 battery, and comes with an auxiliary power connector for use with ANVIS-style auxiliary battery packs, such as our Night Vision Inc. Battle Battery Pack.
