Yukon NV 5x60 Night Vision

I bought the Yukon to replace a Bresser Scope which turned out to be flawed. When it arrived the Postman commented that 'it rattles' shaking the package which duly rattled. As usual,Amazon had used inadequate packing for an Optical device, box dropped into a slightly larger box and a screwed up piece of paper stuffed into the gap left. On unpacking all was to hand, it was in it's pouch and a battery readily to hand.The first problem was opening the Battery compartment as the cap was screwed on by a Gorilla. It took a friend to secure the scope with two hands while I used two hands to turn it. Eventually we got it to turn, remove it and fit the battery. It does say in the manual " do not over tighten " ! Next we found the same Gorilla had tightened the Objective Lens to the same degree. After much straining we were able to move it. Tried it out as evening came on in half light and were pleasantly surprised at the performance with IR turned off.Good sharp image from edge to edge and showed gloomy corners well. After dark it was the same, giving excellent performance and when the Street lights were turned off giving serious dark it still performed well without the need for IR. Turning the IR on was a revelation and it will illuminate up to a estimated 100 yds with no problem. Focus is good and can be quite sharp.It should be noted, that when IR is on, do not try to view through household windows as the IR reflects back into the lens blotting out everything and your viewing eye stays blobby for a while.It is well made,well weighted and feels right in the hand.For the price,this has to be the best entry level scope you can get.Apart from the packing problem and two minor probs easily sorted this is an excellent problem and the Bresser it replaces can't get near it.

The Item is very good in deep dark conditions - expecially with the Infra Red light on. Its not fantastic for Astronomy as the detail is not great at this distance. I did have an issue with the product and wrote to the supplioer but they did not respond - which was a little concerning. Overall a good item that works well.Yukon NV 5x60 Night Vision Monocular

This piece of equipment is useless. You can see better with the naked eye. Please save your money

I found that it couldn’t spot anything more than 20m away even when I coupled it with an infra red filter and high powered spotlight…

I was very wary of this because it is (relatively) cheap for night vision equipment but it is AMAZING! I can sit in my bedroom in pitch black and read the book spines on my bookshelf with absolute clarity. I went for a long walk last night around the woods and these lit the whole area up. I am sooo impressed....

Easy to use - once focused correctly the image was a lot better than I thought it would be in this price range. Very impressed with the range that can be seen in the darkest of conditions . Am gonna play around with a IR illuminator to see just how far this scope can "see" . Would of given it 5 stars but for the reflected glare from the IR that tends to dazzle a bit. A great budget priced scope that arrived well packaged and promptly. Great product.

Great item, first ever night vision item. Am amazed buy how money more object's you can see in the night sky!!

I'Ts very poor and infra red only works at minimal range. Also, a sudden flash of light causes me temporary loss of visionI'm not using it. YOU ignored my email informing you of this.Yours Sincerely,C.T. Hunter. R.M.
