Nighthawk
When we began designing our housing, we ensured no feature was overlooked. The Nighthawk has every feature you could ask for in a robust, relatively lightweight package. The 7075 aluminum construction gives you peace of mind when operating in harsh conditions that may subject the unit to drops, bumps, and other issues. With articulation, manual gain control, onboard IR illuminator, auxiliary power port, IPD stops, and independent pod shutoff, the Nighthawk is a no-compromise solution.
DTNVS-MG
Following in the footsteps of the successful legacy DTNVS, the DTNVS-MG retains all of the features from its predecessor that users love while adding manual gain control. The skeletonized polymer construction offers a durable, lightweight package. With articulation and independent pod shutoff as standard features, the unit can also be equipped with IPD stops via an OEM bolt-on kit. If running a battery pack is necessary, an aftermarket solution offers just that capability.
RNVG
AB’s flagship model, the RNVG, is a 7075 aluminum fixed bridge binocular system that set the industry standard for ruggedness. It’s simple yet bombproof for users whose most significant concern is durability in the field. The housing features an onboard IR illuminator and an auxiliary power port. This housing is very popular with those that have extensive experience with the ANVIS series of binoculars as it closely resembles the AVS-6/9 with the added benefit of the modern dovetail mounting interface and ruggedness.
RPNVG
If a 40° field of view doesn’t cut it, the RPNVG is what you seek. This panning housing is a follow-on to the successful RNVG, adding the ability to adjust from 40° to 65° and anywhere between. This is accomplished without giving up features such as the onboard IR illuminator and auxiliary power port that were initially seen in the RNVG as well. The wide field of view is handy while driving, hiking, or during CQB. With the optional power pod adapters, each pod of the RPNVG can even be removed and used as standalone monoculars, a real force multiplier.
ARNVG
The latest binocular housing from AB, the RNVG-A, was the first solution for those who desired an articulating housing without sacrificing extreme durability, a common compromise in the past. The RNVG-A is machined from 7075 aluminum and includes independent pod shutoff, an onboard IR illuminator, and an auxiliary power port.
Katana
The Katana was Nocturn Industries’ first offering to the night vision market. Like their Tanto monocular, the Katana is a minimalist approach to housing design. It features a polymer construction, articulation, IPD stops, and independent pod shutoff. If you need to utilize a remote battery pack, Nocturn offers a variant with a LEMO port. If you’re looking for a simple, minimalistic, and lightweight binocular housing, look no further. To make it even better, Nocturn stands behind their housing, offering a LIFETIME no-questions-asked warranty.
Manticore-R
One of Nocturn Industries’ latest housings, the Manticore-R (Ruggedized), is a true jack of all trades. When designing this housing, the engineers at Nocturn left no stone unturned, giving this binocular a full suite of features, including 7075 aluminum construction, articulation, manual gain control, IPD stops, individual pod shutoff, onboard IR illuminator, and auxiliary power port. If you somehow manage to break this tank of a housing, worry not, as Nocturn offers a LIFETIME no-questions-asked warranty.
