BNVD-UL - NVD BNVD Ultra Light
The Ultra Light BNVD variant maintains all the amazing features of the standard BNVD goggle, but takes performance to an even higher level with the addition of specially design optics which reduce total system weight to just 17oz. The optics feature specially designed coatings optimized for both white and green phosphor tube screens, providing additional contrast and brightness with white phosphor tubes compared to the PVS-14 optics of other goggle systems. The BNVD-UL rivals the military PVS-31 systems , including multiple features the PVS-31 platform does not have -adjustable diopter optics, specialized optic coatings, automatic pod shutoff, and a full 10 year commercial warranty. All of these make the BNVD-UL the premiere high end goggle system in the world. The BNVD-UL is available with both high performance thin film Elbit Systems tubes and L3 filmless white phosphor image tubes.
The BNVD series of night vision goggles from Pennsylvania’s own Night Vision Devices is the oldest standing product line of commercial night vision systems in America. The latest generation systems featuring single gain control and 11769 format gain-controllable tubes make this a premiere goggle distinguished from the pack. This ‘Ultra Light’ variant of the standard BNVD-SG retains the single gain control, but adds newly developed proprietary optics to reduce total system weight to ~17oz., as well as specialized optic coatings optimized for white phosphor image tubes for an extra boost to contrast and brightness. With added availability of L3 unfilmed white phosphor tubes, optional battery pack compatibility, the BNVD-UL is the most advanced and best night vision goggle system in the world.
