Dumb question because I’m sure the answer is “hell nah”. But maybe someone knows more than I.

I’ve got a night vision monocular, and it’s pretty sweet for the price, much to recommend it. Problem is, the thing has such a small FOV that it’s no fun, and certainly not practical. You can observe something if you hold very still, and so does the target. I got some infrared strobes off eBay, the kind that clip directly on a 9V battery. Thought they would make cool trail markers for unfamiliar woods. Nope. Again, the FOV is so tight you have to point right at them, even though they’re intensely bright.

Another issue is that the screen brightness blinds your natural night vision. It has a lens cover with a pinhole in it that works well enough, but narrows the FOV even further.

Anyone tried the binocular version? I realize the range will be pretty short without carrying an infrared light that projects well. I can handle building that bit!
