I'd be interested in knowing what screens you were using. I've not found any that have backlight adjustment. It's the only weakness with the ones I've built so adjustability would be a massive bonus.
You turn the brightness down on the screen

Hi Fruity,
Great job,likewise digit,Fruity can I ask the viewfinder you are using what mag is it is it the x2.8.as I found that the x3 I was using picked up the pixels on the monitor but focused in on the x hairs nice and sharpe without the aid of my glasses.I have took the x3 lense out and I am trying to find an optician who can make a copy of the lense using my prescription if that makes sense.
Dave
Can't you buy a cheap pair of glasses off the bay and take a lens out of them to try?
-
Thats my next project is an add on, how well can you see the monitor being so close to it, I tried it but my eye's couldn't focus on the screen, my eye sight isn't the best though.

After seeing Davyo thread on diy NV it got me interested. I order the parts and had a go putting it together with out trying to cut wires, but it ended up one mass of cables. I took the plunge on the second attempt and shorten the wires and it came out a bit neater. I'm very happy with the results.
I'd like to thank Davyo and others for all the help and advise that was given.

Thanks for the reply's, I know you can change the pills, I was just wondering if you took a soldering iron to one whether it could be altered.
-
No, I don't think so. I've got 4 of these torches and they're all the same, They start off in low mode for some reason.
-
I have a T38 torch and was wondering if you can alter the pill to a single high mode, the one i've got at the moment is a 3 mode IR that I'm using on a diy spotter and every time I switch it on it come's on in low mode. I just need it to be in high mode.
-
Have a look at Davyo's thread in the DIY section, I've just made a spotter and well impressed with the results, now in the middle off making a NV for the rifle.
-
Sorry, should have put my glasses on first. It should work now.

Davyo, sent you PM, thanks Timmyra608 and Fruity for the offer.

I know alot of you guys have built or are building a nv spotter, I'm in the middle of building one and was wondering if you use a filter of some sort over the screen/monitor to stop the glare, and if so where do you get them from?
-
Very nice.
I did my fifth adjustable comb this week, after vowing never to do another. I then took another vow never to do another.
Used a scroll saw to cut the comb, which ended up a bit wavy. Sorted it out, but lost the odd night's sleep. Traced the problem to a new blade, which I had used to cut some plastic. The blade clogged up and made the wood cut a bit problematic.
It's great when they turn out. You seem to have it off to a fine art - I'm still a bit hit or miss. They all ended up alright, but 4 didn't go smoothly.
It takes a bit of patience and head scratching but it's worth it in the end, and you'll probably do another
-
I made a few of these last year, I've fitted one to every rifle i've got. This is a new to me Airarms that i've made a new adjustable stock and fitted it with an adjustable recoil butt that was already on the gun when I had it, so I can use my add on night vision on any of the rifles.
Material costs was about £5 and a couple of hour's on a grinder.
-
The Night Master, you should be able to pick up a second hand one for your budget, or any of the t20,t38,t50 and t67
-
I'll have the white pill for the night master please.
