BNVD

The BNVD is the binocular unit we offer in Europe, ideal for users who need true depth perception and increased comfort during extended use. It is designed for demanding tactical operations, patrolling, night-time navigation, reconnaissance, or static surveillance, making it an excellent choice for both professionals and advanced civilian users. Built with milspec optics, the unit ensures durability, clarity, and reliability under demanding conditions.

Compared to a monocular such as the PVS-14, the BNVD offers a superior visual experience for both eyes, reducing eye fatigue and significantly improving situational awareness. 

Each unit is built on order, with an estimated lead time of approximately 2 weeks to the client’s door. We offer worldwide shipping, both within Europe and outside Europe. The device runs on standard AA batteries, providing up to 20 hours of run time, and the tubes come with autogating (AG) making it highly versatile for different scenarios. If the battery pack is connected, the run time increases up to 50+ hours. All products come with a 2-year warranty.

What is FOM (Figure of Merit)?
FOM, or Figure of Merit, is a key performance indicator used to evaluate the quality of an image intensifier tube in night vision devices. It is calculated by multiplying the Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) by the resolution (measured in line pairs per millimeter – lp/mm).

FOM 1400–1600
The base model of the series, offering a minimum image resolution of 60 lp/mm and a signal-to-noise ratio of 22 or higher, providing superior image quality in low-light conditions.

FOM 1600–1800
The improved model of the series, with a FOM above 1600, features auto-gated power supply. It can adapt to a variety of complex environments, offering users a more comfortable observation experience in changing outdoor lighting conditions.

FOM 1800–2000
The top-tier model of the series, features a photocathode sensitivity of over 1000 μA/lm and a FOM of up to 2200. It also includes characteristics such as high IR spectrum sensitivity and low halo, making it suitable for various lighting conditions. 

In addition to our high-quality Gen 2+ tubes from manufacturers like NNVT, we also offer Gen 3 intensifiers for clients seeking better performance in low-light conditions.
