Great video, thanks for sharing this comparison! That's so cool to see the community build the pvs69 with the quadcopter cameras. I installed one of those runcam night eagles in a quad years ago and I probably have a couple still sitting around in boxes.
A tinygo/tinywhoop with a night eagle camera and IR LED soldered onto it could peek or scout every corner in a house, if the pilot had a radio with the team inside they could basically have a sixth sense and a flying flashlight.
Thanks man! Glad to see you commenting here. Logistics are getting weird with some gen 3 stuff, but I do have some good glass on loan and cool stuff coming.
Bloke. Another great upload. Great to see you are getting some sponsors and support. Re: nvg30s. Was experimenting with mine and trying passive aiming. Thoughts on having a IR light mounted forward of the red dot sight? I found the nvg30s in build ir would flood the screen of the red dot sight. With ir turned off I could see the dot easy
Thanks! I hope this video continues to do well. Having IR illum In front of the red dot should work great, you may have to up the power of the dot a little bit to make it fully visible
Seems to me that if you're going to use these kinds of things for security around your house, you should invest in some IR light bulbs that run at night. That way, even the cheapest system will work well and you'll still have the advantage of using them with IR off so you have concealment.
@@ironman8257 thank you! I intentionally leave the ambience in the background as I feel it adds to the chill feeling imo (at least for Midwest people lol)
PVS-69 seems to sit at the bottom of the barrel when it comes to digital NVGs. Kinda sad, since that's the most affordable/customizable option - newest version, you can even swap from digital to NVGs. Wish there were more DIY options that produce the type of results we see from the NVG-30s (Which seems to look better than the Opsin and even analog in some scenarios)
I agree. I need to get my hands on the alpha 69s because on paper I think they are really good NvGs. I also would love to see the NVG30 sensor in a 69 housing
I have both and the pvs69 is excellent even in digital!! Looking forward to changing it over to analog though… that said the nvg30 is a really great device
I've used a NVG30 in a milsim and it worked amazingly. I just charged my battery the wrong way (you gotta use a 18650 battery charger as usb-c is to slow) and it started dying early 😂
Awesome video, a real service to many of us...and very encouraging. As an NVG 30 owner, I can tell you that I am proud of how it stacked up, and I am thankful to have the capability it provides...Thanks again and all the best with the channel...
Hey, loved the video but in the future would you be able to compare distances? I was hoping to find out how far the NVG30 can see VS the others, thank you

Ok so I don’t airsoft or plan on sprinting around but are the NVG30 adequate enough for the occasional plinking with a 22 and IR laser and light? How much more effective does say a weapon mount IR light make these in terms of being able to identify/the range of a target?
Thanks for the comparison. After losing my old, beat up PVS-7 to a tweaker break in during cancer, I bought an NVG-30, not expecting much. Man, was I wrong. The NVG30 is really the vanguard of what digital night vision is capable of. Inasmuch as analog NV followers may say: “digital will never be as good as analog”, I regret to inform them that while digital has not quite passed analog on the highway of night vision, the turn signal is on and the gas pedal is being pressed. The real tell will be: improving technology, while keeping prices low. I’m certainly not running and gunning with my NVG-30, but at 40fps (not why they bothered with 30fps) the latency on it is surprisingly low. I’ve also found WP setting to be the sweet spot and I turned off all icons - just a clean screen. The compass, crosshairs etc, were too busy for me. I’ve also found auto gain to be the best suited, even though it’s a bit bothersome at first. Leaving the gain in high, just doesn’t work for my eyes. I also wish there were a dedicated app for this. The instruction manual indicates there is one, but I have yet to be successful with the QR code. An app with firmware updates (if there are any) would be great. I was going to bino this unit with another one, but I think I’ll be investing instead into the new, wide angle lens for this and calling it done. Down the road, I may be buying an ADNV - which also looks amazing and the SE is now running well under the Opsin and far far below the PVS-14’s, while offering pretty incredible utility. Thanks again for your review!
No problem and thanks for the comment! Im glad you are happy with your NVG30, I currently have a ADNV G14SE on loan to me and its straight incredible. analog Gen2+ level of preformance. I do agree with you and wish the NVG30 had a better app.

Hi, I Finally got one of those NVG-30's but I noticed there is lag when you move quickly? I thought that was fixed in the NVG30 since the 10 lagged so bad on movement. There is still a lot of lag while moving even on 40fps. I think they need to make this unit 50-60fps to correct the problem. 30fps is completely useless on movement I have no idea why that is the default?
yesterday in the game I looked at the NVG30 and was surprised when the eye does not see the NVG30 gives a good picture without IR illumination a night sight from China for 150 dollars showed a black screen but the NVG30 allowed me to see leaves and branches at a distance of 10 meters taking into account the price and unpretentiousness a good option than the EPO 2 generation 2+

Absolute must see video, great job! Thank you for sharing your work with us. Just one (double) question: what is the F/# for the lens of the NVG30, and what is the sensor used within ? Thank you for your feedback.
@@extrudedshoots , thank you for your reply. For knowing the F/#, we would need to know the dimensions of the sensor. With the fov (40° horizontal if i remember well), it would be quite easy to find the focal lens of the lens and therefore to obtain F/#. Do you know the size of the sensor ?
Honestly I feel the only things the NVG 30's miss is a way to make them auto power on when pulled down( and auto turn off when pulled up), and if they could be powered through the bridge instead of just the USB-C for external power.
@@extrudedshoots yeah I’ve heard some kinda fishy stories about them … the second gen is supposed to be 90fps which coupled with their modified fisheye lense will make them the best in the market if they can pull it off.. plus made of aluminum
You should test out the 50 degree lens that is now available to give a better FOV. I wonder if that lens increases magnification or just FOV as you know the Chinese give very little information.
@@extrudedshoots What is it a 1.2x etc? I am just wondering how much it changes it, there is another person that made a mod to give more FOV but you have to remove the old lens and it is not adjustable for distance.
I mean it’s almost less than a 1/4th of the price. If I drop the cameras on the opsin to the same as the NVG30 it preformed better, but that beats the point in my opinion
That's because the Opsin is set to 90hz in every test, near triple the frame rate of the 30-40 fps NVG30. Dropping it down to 30 or even 60 would give far better low light performance.
some of those printed parts need some serious tweaking to the settings lol some of them are looking rough. it is possible to get way cleaner prints than that. just some constructive criticism
Your spelling is atrocious. It was so consistent however it almost had me thinking I was wrong and that’s how you actually spell words correctly. Aside from that, thanks for the video comparison.

NVG30 works great without IR light. I actually had a few Airsoft games against gen2+ and gen3 analog users and outplayed them. What I'm saying is that it's all about practicing your eye. Even the best NVG won't make you better if you are not training with it.

Wonder if you could get a setup with two analogue tubes for the center view, and then thermal or IR camera for the peripheral view with a quad setup.
If the analog tube is a rebranded xd4 which it is minimum fom should be 1140 and not 1600. Average fom for xd4s is 1472.
I checked the minimum for the exact type of tube and it was around 1600 I could repost the exact minimum.

Valid take
Heres to the NVG30 outperforming the opsin in many of these tests at 1/3 the price.
I mean it’s almost less than a 1/4th of the price. If I drop the cameras on the opsin to the same as the NVG30 it preformed better, but that beats the point in my opinion
Paradoxally, Opsin is only better in better light conditions, the same as digital nvg to analog or photonis to gen 3
That's because the Opsin is set to 90hz in every test, near triple the frame rate of the 30-40 fps NVG30. Dropping it down to 30 or even 60 would give far better low light performance.

An average review at best. Filming the imagery through a phone, not matching frrame rates, colour vs mono, adjusting gain……..etc……
Do you create night vision content? Didn’t think so.
