Superb basic L3 example in white. Almost flawless image, great body, fit, controls, and accessories
Comes in standard canvas zipper belt bag with normal accessories. I have the white phosphor version with filmless L-3 tube. L-3 is arguably the best tube manufacturer in the world, and along with Elbit, supplies our military with night vision, including the PVS-14.
My included Test Data sheet shows a tube with a Figure Of Merit (FOM) of 1862, and I'm quite happy with that. I know how good tubes can get, and I also know that the functional difference between a high FOM tube and a lower FOM tube can be zero, most of the time. Exports to most of the world have a FOM of 1600 max, so I know with an 1862 I have a significantly better performing product than is globally available. Even for little old me, God bless the USA!
It's very difficult to tell the difference between tubes with higher FOM and lower FOM unless they are next to each other to compare with. Just like with daytime optics, when you get to a certain point, you start to expend larger and larger amounts of money for just the tiniest and tiniest of performance increase. And that performance increase will probably not be noticeable to you except in your wallet.
Individual data sheet numbers revealed more important specifications about the DNA in my monocular, as every unit is unique in performance. Artifacts, or spots in the viewing area can be large or small, or in different zones in your field of view. Signal to Noise, Photocathode Sensitivity, Gain, and some other specifics that I don’t understand tend to hurt my b...

PVS-14 White Phosphor Gen 3
I did a lot of research before purchasing this product. Trybe was a unknown brand to me but they use pinnacle tubes for their NV optics so I felt pretty safe. I am very impressed with the unit. The tube is rated as a level three meaning their is a certain amount of spots or blemishes allowed in the ...

Below Average night vision for a premium price.
Purchased a Gen 3 white phosphor PVS-14 that was supposedly hand picked. Fairly large blemish in zone 2. I checked the NightVision subreddit and this is not an isolated occurrence. The data from the data sheet is decent to slightly above average specs but not for a hand-picked device. For the price...

Not what I expected for hand selected
Purchased in 2020- paid extra for hand selected and received mine with a huge dark spot. Thought it was normal as this was my first until I saw other friends that have no blemishes for less.
Would recommend: No
good quality so far
I’ve received my unit recently and so far it’s been great no blems the only problem I have so far is that the J arm that comes with it doesn’t work with rhinos, it’s meant specifically for the skull crusher so if you’re going to buy this unit plan ahead and get a different j arm or mounting system
Pros:
- no blems
- clean packaging
Cons:
- swing arm is not meant for rhinos
Would recommend: Yes
Bought for my son. Now I want one.
This thing is awesome. It's light weight, works flawlessly, and is super easy to use. Highly recommend!
Would recommend: Yes
A+ Excellent Quality
Very good quality, Highly recommend you buy (hand selected) only, higher cost, But absolutely worth it. My is White Phosphor, FOM 2300+ , Res 72-81. I've owned my for 2 years and works flawlessly.
Pros:
- Very good quality
Cons:
- espensive, but so are all of them
Would recommend: Yes
Great pvs14
I liked it so much I bought a second. Works great, clear image. No blemishes. I recommend buying an iris and get rid of the cap.
Would recommend: Yes
Good tube, but buy separate j arms
Excellent product that worked right out of the box. Included j-arms don't seem to fit norotos bracket. Tubes clear and without defect.
Would recommend: Yes
TRYBE Optics GEN 3 PVS-14 Night Vision Monocular
Got a solid green phosphorus tube with no blems and pretty decent specs. Overall I can't complain. The J-Arm was a little wonky, but I'm not using it anyway. Overall I'm pretty happy with the purchase.
Would recommend: Yes
GET IT FOR YOUR FARM
WAY TO COOL.....SAFE FOR YOU AND YOUR WIFE FOR DARKNESS OUT ON THE FARM
Would recommend: Yes
Exceptional Quality and Clarity
This was definitely worth the investment. I got a great intensifier tube with no spots and excellent specs. The image quality is amazing, and it is easy to see clearly in very dark conditions. The included head strap is convenient and useful for walking around. A more secure mount would be better for any rougher use.
Pros:
- Quality
- clarirty
Cons:
- None
Would recommend: Yes
