I got a call from my dad a couple days ago and he expressed interest in getting some night vision gear. He has a small hobby farm out in the country and some of his ducks keep disappearing at night. He suspects a coyote is on the prowl, but he isn't sure. It's very poorly lit and dark out where he is. He wants to get some good night vision gear so that he can keep an eye on his flock and his farm. I did some research for him, asked around the office and found that the ATN Night Scout Night Vision Binoculars would be his best bet. Price is one of his big concerns, but he also wants quality night vision. The ATN Night Scout Binoculars are on the higher end of night vision optics, but they don't have the high end price to go with them.
The neatest feature with these binoculars is the 'smart' function. The night vision binoculars have a built in sensor that automatically detects when they are up to your eyes. Saves a ton on battery life, which can last about 10-20 hours.
The ATN Night Scout Binoculars feature the high end optics you can expect from ATN. They magnify by 5x and intensify light by 35,000x. They can detect objects at a range of 150m, not quite 500 feet! Perfect for my dad's two acre farm. Though they only feature first generation night vision technology, the optics and electronics in this unit are so well made with precision that it's almost like having a 2nd or 3rd generation pair of night vision binoculars.
Father's Day is coming up and I think my dad will be getting a nice pair of ATN Night Scout Night Vision Binoculars from me. Night Vision is the perfect gift for dad.
Maybe then he'll be able to get to the bottom of the murdered duck investigation.
