Sports reviews of Night Owl Tactical Series G1 Night Vision Binocular Goggles (1x)

Customer Review: Hey it works but i'll update it through it's life
Sport shop rating: 4 Stars

Received it promptly from amazon with free shipping. Item is made in Belarus. Instructions are sufficient enough. Please note, you need to purchase the ultra rare N-battery(mostly used for medical devices) - I checked every local store and all did not carry it. I had to buy it from amazon and paid a hefty shipping price because it was a third party.

Let's move on to the goggles. The item is divided into two parts, one is the binocular part the other is the head strap.

The head strap sure looks scary (like something used in the movie SAW) but is easy to put on and adjust. You can adjust the circumference and then the tightness and comes with a chin strap to make it tighter. I have a big head - about 16 inches around, and it fits with a little more room for adjustment. Overall, it should fit almost anyone.

The worst thing I am afraid of the goggle part is the two buttons, these buttons seem like they will be stuck if press to hard, so don't press to hard!

The feel of this item is not the best; it still feels like it's cheap but all I can say right now is it works.

I tried it outdoors at night, ultra pitch dark and it gives a good image. I say the clarity is 8 out of 10. Maybe I could have some better focusing, but I tried and tried and that was the best I can come up with.


For 557 dollars it provides an adquedate use for night vision; I'm sure they are many out there that are even clearer, but you will have to pay an even bigger price.

I'll try to update on this product as time passes.

Night Owl Optics is widely recognized for embracing the latest technology and standards in night vision optics, and the Tactical NOBG1 binoculars are no exception. Night Owls' most compact set of binoculars, the NOBG1 can be used as standalone binoculars--ideal for spotting bats or other nocturnal creatures--or you can attach them to the included head mount. The latter option is terrific for hiking in the dark, when you'd like to have your hands free but still want to see objects in the distance. Plus, the head mount gear is comfortable and versatile, with pushbutton mounting flexibility for the goggle unit. And should the binoculars get in your way but you don't have time to remove them, you can simply flip them up and out of the line of vision.

The binoculars sport a high-grade objective lens with a 26mm focal length, along with a lightweight, compact housing that's perfect for traveling. As a result, you can easily spot interesting creatures or landmarks in the evening hours. All Night Owl lenses are also coated specifically for nighttime viewing to further enhance light gathering and image brightness. This is achieved by treating the advanced optical components with a premium coating of different layers of metal oxides and fluorides to ensure minimum reflections on the glass surface and increased light transmission. The 1x magnification system, meanwhile, delivers a 455-foot viewing range and a 9.5-inch close focusing range. Other features include a powerful built-in infrared illuminator, an automatic light protection sensor that shuts off if exposed to ambient light, and high-quality intensifier tubes.
