Most Helpful First | Newest First | + ShareDecent 1G NV Scope
(3 out of 5) by Joe Roberts on Nov 26, 2009 (Seattle, WA USA)It works well, durable, easy to use first generation scope. It's funny to see some of the bad reviews on this scope--blurred edges and slightly blurry vision. This is normal an inherent on all first generation night vision devices. The blurred or bubbled edges are geometric distortion inherent in the design of all 1G NV devices.
If you want a miracle product, spend the $3-$5k on better goggles. For $200, this is a great deal and does what it advertises. Not the best 1G device, but definitely not the worst.

pretty good, for the price
(4 out of 5) by joe on Jan 10, 2009pretty good, more of an item you would use for night spotting and/or medium range night observation. mounting accessories are almost a most to truely use to its max potential.

Incompetent Seller
(1 out of 5) by Bette Davis on Dec 9, 2008 (Westland, OH,USA)I'm sure the product is good (haven't tried it yet), but the seller, ACE PHOTO DIGITAL leaves much to be desired. You might consider another seller for this product. I ordered two of these, one to be sent to me in Michigan (free shipping) and one to be sent to California (charged shipping). They sent both to me in separate boxes. Great. Now I had to ship it to California at my own cost in addition to what I already paid to have it erroneously sent to me.
Now I can well understand mistakes - it's sometimes busy and people aren't paying full attention. So I approached the call that way and expected to hear the customer service manager apologize and cheerfully refund the shipping costs that I paid. However, when I called to request a refund for the shipping that it cost me to send it to California, they refused and would only offer to refund the cost to erroneously send it to me. How is that fair? I don't think it is. We're not talking about major dollars here - it was a difference of $3.50! Amazing that this $3.50 is more important to them to retain than keeping a customer happy. Is $3.50 much to me? Heck no, but I do care about the principle of fairness.

Cheap
(1 out of 5) by A. Riordan on Jul 13, 2008This is a poorly constructed piece of equipment. Having just returned home from Iraq, I think my expectations were too high for this product. It focuses poorly, the IR feature does not work that well. I would tell anybody looking for something like this to spend the extra money and get a better one. I wish somebody had told me that. Ive got a very costly paperweight now.
