Creatineboy's Review of Bushnell 4.5x40 Equinox Z Digital Night Vision Monocular
This night vision system has worked for me for 6 years with no problems. Mine has the 850 nm IR illuminator built in and to be honest,it's not really even always needed, this device is so good at using ambient light,like the right in my dark neighborhood. With the IR turned on,I can see point targets a 1/2 mile away. On,dogs and cats and even humans eyes glow white. It records or takes pics,and has a daytime function,but that's no fun. It has a picatinny rail where you can add your own IR illuminator to it, and I have a 7 Watt 850 NM illuminator light coming that I'm going to attach to it. I ordered this item from Walmart online and it's one of the best purchases I've ever made. It's showing no sign of stopping or wearing out,and the focus function fixes blurriness instantly. Overall,it's a great Night vision device and I would recommend it to anyone. It runs on 4AA batteries,but I find high maH rechargeable Li or other batteries do best,or at least disposable lithium batteries will make it run longer. Using it sparingly I kept the same four AA batteries in it for 6 years!
Pros:
Clear image, bright IR illuminator,good focus,takes pics/records,has zoom,can see great distances
Cons:
Battery cap gets brittle and had to be fixed(glued together)
Best Used for:
Watching people at night,stalking predator animals like coyotes(never deer),scoping out your deer stand before you get to it,playing,monitoring your property
Would Recommend:
Yes
