Picking up dog poop , removing rats from traps , tying shoes under nods !! Small normal task will help ur depth perception and dexterity

A great way to really start building a scan and learning depth perception is to go out hiking alone. That narrow field of view becomes really apparent when you hear weird noises and you have to physically turn your whole head to try and orient to those noises. You also end up seeing a lot of cool wildlife like owls, bats, and deer. There’s a lot of really cool benefits to NODs that don’t even have to involve shooting! Great video as always.

Two or three layers of mylar foil will darken any window quite nicely. Toss a blackout curtain on top and it's virtually zero VLT. If you want a room for practice this can be useful for some folks.

It’s also nice if you want a dark bedroom for if you work nights 😂

If you have a friend who also has NV, playing a game of catch with a soft football or stress ball helps with the depth perception and hand eye coordination under NODS. Start slow, with an underhand toss and as you get comfortable, increase the distance. If you're alone, bouncing a ball or tennis ball of a wall and catching it is good practice too. Great vid!

after i got my 14 I kept my lid next to the bed so I'd use NOD's for those late nite piss breaks... when you are over 50 you will understand.

Thx Sir!! Always helpful as usual…. I recently mowed my yard at 2300 under nods. Neighbors love me lol

Mowing the lawn 👍🏼

Great video. Thank you.

An Appalachian trail entrance is 10 minutes from my house. I'm tempted to try and hike it when my rvm-14 arrives on Monday, but I'm also a little scared because there is some steep terrain there...

These videos are great, thank you

Can you do a video on the upper limits of light (intensity and duration) acceptable for use before damaging NODs? For example, the amount of daylight (time of day) or the amount and direction of lighting inside a building.

Perfect timing! My pvs14 I ordered from TNVC a few months back was shipped out last week. It was their top of the line model when I ordered it, but they came out with their 2376+ FOM supergain tubes 1 or 2 weeks after I ordered mine. I think I got lucky though because when I ordered it, they told me to request 2376+ FOM in the comments when ordering. Ended up getting a 2700+ FOM, 72lp/mm resolution with a 37.7SNR. Wondering if I got lucky and got a supergain tube for 1k cheaper? 🤔

Honestly? Just do stuff in them Clean the house. Do dishes, clean up the yard, etc Time time time time

I had my car break down at night on me, had my nvgs with me and decided fuck it and worked on it under nvgs

I'm gonna use these when washing my dishes at night

Just like a doomsday prepper, I bought an item and store it in a drawer and will never use it...

Take a piss off the deck in pitch black. At least that's what I use mine for.

During a range or just out training at night in between runs or whatever we had going on we’d get the new guys and pair them up and just have them play catch with an IR chem light. Always a good time watching someone get hit in the face with a glow stick the first couple of times until you learn how to judge distance to thing that we’re out of Focus. Good luck if you try it

Practice actually getting out and walking at night with them on. There is a nice bike trail i go to and walk at night with my pvs14. Some things i have learned is its good to learn how to pull a battery off your back and change in the dark, also, in the winter, wool gloves get caught up on the velcro battery holder on the back of my head. And, always wear safety glasses when walking in woods at night, nods or no nods, the last thing you need is catching a twig with your eye. I wear a crye nightcap with my pvs14, and a streamlight sidewinder compact around my neck, it feels weird and i have a constant fear of getting choked, but i cant get it on my forehead with the nightcap on.
