The DA is just so damn clean, flat, and consistent. No odd spills, petri dish, halos, or artifacts. I appreciate it more every day. And yes - They're more squared off, or scround, for lack of a better word, in person than they appear on camera. They're hefty. No denying that downside. But the upside of their heavy build is that they don't think SCARs are so tough.

You can’t tell I’m blushing through night vision.

The features of the raid xe are not hard to understand imo, just has a few more than other lasers. Summary: up arrow, more power. Down arrow, less power. Short range illum=flood led, long range=laser. Pick the combo of features you like and program them to the button you want. Never change a setting again.

I know BE Meyers is coming out with a new one that is going to have a full power IR illuminator with a Civ laser

I dont have one,

Can you tell me the name of the instrumental?

thanks again for sharing & comparing. I noticed some units have a splash on the ground and some do not. the MAWL's throw all their energy down range while the RAID FP and others drop some on the ground on the way down range. if the NV PHD could speak to that effect a little, I'm sure both myself & others would like to know your thoughts on this effect. the Modlite IR 850 had a huge amount of spill, just like mine does, it usually auto gates my NOD's with its spill and bloom. I know it's a big ask, but could you show what lasers & illuminators look like from the side view? if someone was downrange but off to the side to avoid direct exposure but still able to see what these devices give off when from off center view? what would someone not in line of sight see when you use them? how much extra IR energy is thrown out all around the shooter by the devices? does it light up the trees all around you or is the energy focused down range so when you are off axis you see a limited amount. I have never seen a test of how much devices bloom and expose the shooter. basically, how fast will you be kilt in da street if/when you use your laser. lastly, I agree the Villian diffuser caps should be on your PEQ's and D2's without fail or delay, they are great at going from indoor flood to outdoor throw instantly. very good upgrade and probably should be included with any non VCEL laser without an easy way to adjust the divergence.

@customnightvision

4 ай бұрын

ok this is a lot lol. the spill is very minimal and from a down range perspective they all look fairly similar because the intensity of the emitter will far surpass any marginal spill. if you're concerned with near pear threats and concealment while using night vision the common position is, dont actively emit in the open at a minimum. Passive aiming would be sop.

What he said.

@thomaswgoodwiniii

Another note here is that he was only running the MAWL on triple click which is the smallest most distance oriented beam. The short and midrange will throw more flood out there

In the world of Vscel illuminators, I don't know why peqs are still as popular as they are. I know when you tighten down the illuminator they are insanely bright, but a clean illumination does so much more for PID. Is it soley because the ability to punch through photonic barriers?
