Armasight Sirius SD MG Night Vision Monocular Review\

The Armasight Sirius is a high-tech, tough and durable multi-use monocular that delivers great Gen 2+ performance, but at the lowest possible cost. Packed with features, the Sirius is a unit that is equally at home with the hunter as it is with the  professional security officer or law enforcement professional. Mission configurable, the Armasight Sirius can be hand-held, head/helmet mounted; it can be mounted onto a rifle with a variety of different mounts, or it can be mounted in front of a camcorder or camera for night photography. Optional 3, 5 or 8X lenses can turn it into a long range night viewing device in seconds.

Incredibly for such a low cost unit, the Sirius features manual brightness control, bright light shut-off circuitry and a spot/flood built-in IR illuminator. The Armasight Sirius is a night vision work-horse that will satisfy the requirements of the most demanding professional or casual night vision user with room to spare.
