You're in the field at 3 AM. Something moves in the darkness. Is it wildlife, an intruder, or just the wind? Without night vision, you're guessing.
This digital night vision monocular lets you see and record in complete darkness—5X optical zoom brings targets 300m away into clear view. The Sony STAR sensor captures 1080P footage with audio, so you don't miss a detail. Rechargeable battery runs for 2 hours, and it records to microSD for evidence or review.

Border Patrol Surveillance
Remote border sections have no lighting. Movement could be illegal crossings, smuggling, or wildlife.
This monocular spots heat signatures at 300m in complete darkness. 5X zoom identifies individuals, while HD recording captures evidence for authorities. The 2-hour battery lasts through a full patrol shift.
Private Security Details
Executive protection requires discreet nighttime observation. Flashlights and obvious equipment compromise the operation.
Pocket-sized and silent, this monocular provides covert surveillance without detection. Infrared illuminator is invisible to the naked eye—subjects won't know they're being watched. Record encounters for client reports or legal protection.
Critical Infrastructure Monitoring
Power stations, pipelines, and communications towers spread across remote areas. Fences get cut when nobody's watching.
Mount on tripod for stationary overnight watch. 300m range covers large perimeter sections. Motion-triggered recording saves only when activity occurs, conserving battery and storage space for actionable footage.
How It Works
The monocular uses infrared LEDs (850nm wavelength) to illuminate darkness invisible to the human eye. The Sony STAR sensor captures this light, processing it into a clear digital image on the 1.5" display. Video and audio record directly to microSD card (not included) for immediate playback or transfer. Recharges via USB-C in 3 hours for repeat use.
