Home Build NV

Well...
After trying to get along with, and then giving up and selling
my Yukon Photon, I decided to go down the DIY NV route and this
is what I came up with...
Bullet cam, held in place with a cable gland and silicone car
hose which is then heat shrinked to strengthen it.
Cheap LCD screen from eBay
12v Li-Po battery again from eBay.
Total cost less than £100...

Million dollar question is does it work better than the Yukon
photon that you sold on :)

I reckon so... This photo was taken about 70yrds with ambient
light only...
IR, building my own on a modified 501B body, just waiting a few
parts to arrive from China...
