Like all NVDs, it needs some ambient light, but not a ton-you will absolutely be able to use it on a moonless or cloudy night, although its effectiveness and effective range will be diminished. It has an image intensifier and is fully digital, so a lack of ambient light will not cripple it.

The controls are intuitive and easy to figure out, but I do recommend reading the online manual to ensure you know how to operate the many features of the optic. It can be used during the day or in a moderately illuminated area at night with the objective-lens cover on (there’s a pinhole in the cover to limit the amount of light entering the optic). I went down the middle with the 4.5x40, which offers a nice combination of portability and zoom for observation at ranges of up to 500 yards-more on that later. The Equinox Z2 is available in 3x30 mm, 4.5x40 mm or 6x50 mm variants. Bushnell’s newest night-vision monocular was intriguing and much more reasonably priced at $359.99, so I decided to check it out. That narrowed my options, so I looked at the more affordable products on the market. I’ve used such devices, like the PVS-14, on various nighttime hog hunts, and I know how good they are at turning night into day, but man oh man are they expensive. After recovering from the immense sticker shock, I realized I lack the financial resources to purchase military-grade night-vision, which starts at about $5,000.
So, I went online and searched for various options.
With all of the recent tumult, I thought it would be a good idea to have some sort of night-vision device handy lest I ne ed to defend my family, home or neighborhood when trouble usually shows itself, which is to say: at night.
