Axeon's New Device Turns Standard Binoculars Into Night Observation Tools

The Axeon NightVue mounts to most porro and roof prism binoculars and beams a powerful 520 nanometer green laser out to distances up to 250 meters. The green color of the NightVue emitter cuts through haze and fog while also having a low effect on personal night-time vision.

Axeon Optics has announced the Axeon NightVue, a binocular mounted green laser illuminator that transforms the standard binocular into a tool for night time observation.

The Axeon NightVue mounts to most porro and roof prism binoculars and beams a powerful 520 nanometer green laser out to distances up to 250 meters. The green color of the NightVue emitter cuts through haze and fog while also having a low effect on personal night-time vision.

Once the NightVue is mounted onto the binoculars, the viewer can use the beam adjustment wheel to adjust the angle of the light output to closely match the magnification range of the binoculars and distance of the subject from you.

Axeon says set up of the NightVue is simple with the included mounting hardware. Once mounted to the optic, the locking knob on the mounting stem can be loosened so the green laser beam can be aligned with the line of sight of the binoculars.

The Axeon NightVue has both a weather-sealed body and USB charging port located on the bottom side of the back portion of the light. MSRP is $149.99.
