Armasight NYX-14 ID MG Night Vision Monocular Review

The Armasight Nyx-14 is the new standard by which all compact multi-use monoculars will be judged in future.  The Nyx-14 uses optics that are equal to or better than current Military issue night vision units, built into a tough, compact and ergonomic composite housing. We built this body to surpass MIL-SPEC-810 specifications, and so the Armasight Nyx-14 can withstand salt water, rain, high humidity, extremes of temperature and still give unsurpassed levels of performance.

The Nyx-14 mini-monocular is equipped with manual variable gain control so that the image brightness level can be selected by the user to adjust for the ambient light level in his area of operations. The Armasight Nyx-14 is available with a whole array of accessories like – 3, 5 and 8X magnification lenses for mid-long range viewing, head or helmet mounts to allow the unit to be worn as a mono-goggle, various different weapon mounts for tactical or hunting use and high powered additional IR illuminators for long range use.  The Nyx-14 is available in Gen 2+ and Gen 3 variants, and is the only night vision device that will meet the challenge of such a high number of tasks and accomplish them all with ease.
