Hunting With Night Vision Devices

Hunting at night and/or in the dark never seemed easy until Night Vision Devices were made available in the market. With these devices, hunters can now get a better and clearer view of what lurks in the dark.

How Night Vision Devices Make You an Invisible Hunter

Basically, night vision devices or NVD aids you in hunting by gathering light from the stars, the moon, and other light sources and focusing it on the front lens so as to give you a clearer image of what lurks in the dark. In its simplest form, the night vision devices gather light and then directs this light into the photocathode tube which converts the photons to electrons. After the electron conversion, a host of chemical and electrical process multiplies the number of electrons present. After magnification, the electrons are hurled on a phosphorus screen and the electrons are then converted into light. This process allows you to see the image that is shown in a green-hue scene.

Night Vision Device options for Night Hunting

There are many units of night vision devices that hunters can opt to use. A Night Vision Device may belong to its 1st, 2nd, 3rd or 4th generation type. Note that each generation only varies according to the type of light intensifier tube that is used for the device.

First generation Night Vision Devices are the most prominent these days. They are relatively cheaper than the other units and are thus the most recommended types for conventional use. Note that first generation Night Vision Devices makes use of the process and the lighting equipment described above.

Second Generation Night Vision Devices pose a slight advantage to the First Generation units primarily because they have micro-channel plates (MCP). Made out of millions of glass tubes, MCPs provide better amplification of the electrons in the photocathode. As a result, it gives the hunters a brighter and sharper night vision that the previous version.

As for the Third Generation Night Vision Devices, they provide brighter and sharper images than the MCPs of the second generation primarily because of the Gallium Arsenide present in their photocathode tubes. Ion barrier films were also installed in these third generation devices, thereby increasing the tube's operating power.

Last but definitely the best of the units, the Night Vision Devices of the Fourth Generation are far more beneficial than their previous forms primarily because of the Gated Filmless Tubes. These tubes have increased the NVDs ability to detect target at distant ranges and improve the resolution of the image even at exceptionally low light levels.

Night Vision Device Sight Range

Note that Night Vision Devices were made to allow you to see in the dark, not to let you see in far and wide sight ranges. When using NVDs, there are many factors to consider when assessing the distance that the device allows you to view. First, consider the available lighting. Note that the Night Vision Devices amplifies existing light so you can see things. If the moon or the stars provide ambient lighting, then you can probably see farther than what you can if there are no stars for the night. Also, take note of the size of the object you are trying to see. The larger the object, the greater you have of seeing it. Also, consider what are you trying to see about the object- is it its details (requires recognition range) or just its movement (shown through a detection range).
