Based on the ultra-compact, lightweight Lightning™ multipurpose Gen 2 monocular with a rugged, all-metal bodyshell. Power is supplied by 2 x AA/MN1500 1.5V Alkaline batteries.
The standard variant is offered with a commercial grade Russian Gen 2+ image intensifier tube.
Supplied as standard with a compact 26mm f1.1 lens, the Lightning NVGsup>™ offers parity (1.0x magnification) with an ultra wide 40° field of view. The lightweight headmount that is included offers a flip-and-lock facility, safety lock, eye-relief adjustment and replaceable leather forehead/head pads.
For longer range observation, optional multicoated lenses are available offering 4.0x and 6.3x magnification. A 3x Lens Converter can also be fitted to the standard 26mm f1.1 lens to give 3.0x image magnification.
A low power, close-range 5mW IR Illuminator is built-in as standard. Optional high power 75mW and 150mW IR Illuminators are available for longer range use in very low light/total darkness (NB these cannot be fitted at the same time as the headmount).
A weapon mount adaptation is available that allows use with either an active red dot laser sight or alternatively mounted behind a passive Aimpoint® red dot or EOTech Holographic sight.
An SLR/Video Camera Adaptor is supplied as standard. The adaptor has 37mm and 52mm threads that allow the unit to be fitted to the filter thread of camera lenses.
A tripod thread is fitted as standard and the unit is supplied with a shoulder/belt-mount pouch case.
