Advanced optics are capable of providing 4X night vision magnification with only starlight, at up to 270 yards of detection distance.

The Yukon NVMT series of optical devices embrace modern technology while keeping the focus on practicality. All monoculars in the NVMT series amplify visible light several thousand times, and feature an exclusive Pulse built-in infrared illuminator that expands viewing range while minimizing battery drainage. It provides the maximum possible infrared output, but allows the illuminator diode to pulse, protecting the IR from burning out. This pulsing is invisible to the human eye, but means the illuminator can penetrate longer distances.

The NVMT 4x50 is the most powerful handheld in the line. Fully multi-coated lenses decrease glare and improve light transmission to provide excellent viewing capabilities, while the internal components amplify visible for detailed nighttime observation. Its 50-millimeter lens ensures powerful light gathering and transmission for a pristine image, and is capable of providing 4X night vision magnification with only starlight. It operates by amplifying existing light using an electro-optical system, and its lenses have improved wavelength/contrast characteristics to help maximize light utilization.

An ergonomically-designed Rubber Armor body fits comfortably in the palm of your hand, and slides into your pocket for quick accessibility, making it ideal for travel and prolonged use. Capable of being transformed into any of the NVMT line's variations, the 4x50 can additionally be used with an NVMT Riflescope Conversion Kit or NVMT Head Gear Kit.

Product Description

This review is from: Yukon Nvmt 4X50 Night Vision Monocular (Electronics)

Having used NVG's in training and war (PVS-2/4/5/7's), I had limited expectations when purchasing this (1Gen). I was much more than pleasantly suprised when I received this and tested it for the first time. The NVMT easily outpaced my memories of the PVS-2 and bordered on the quality I was familiar with with the PVS-4/5's. Passive is quite good, but IR source light shows a dramatic difference in visibility and clarity. Rubberized coating good feature.

5.0 out of 5 stars Solid unit, August 16, 2004

This review is from: Yukon Nvmt 4X50 Night Vision Monocular (Electronics)

As a retired military guy I can't help but be interested in this type of technology. When I was in, we used third generation night vision. If anyone can actually afford these type of units I would look into it. But the reality of the situation is that most people can't spend that kind of money on such "toys". For Gen 1 units I really like the NVMT 4x50. If you do your research you will find that the resolution in this unit is better than most. I just ordered the rifle scope upgrade (from another site) and look forward to using that. (I live in Kansas which is full of prairie dogs but not for long.) I bought a Bushnell unit two years ago which is still going strong but the housing on this one is a much newer design. I have had freinds who have used ATN and Night Owl with varying degrees of success so do your research and make sure you get a good warranty.

This review is from: Yukon Nvmt 4X50 Night Vision Monocular (Electronics)

After some of the reviews I expected more, but as the phrase goes. It's OK for the price. I got this because I often camp in a remote area and my young kids get a little nervous when things go bump in the night. I thought we'd be able to look out into the woods and see all the critters at play and ease their minds, but so far I haven't seen a thing. I also try to use it to keep an eye on our dog when he goes out at night. I have a fenced in wooded yard, but it would be nice to check up on him when he gets quiet. I have to use the infrared light to see him if he's any farther away than 10 yards, and it doesn't help much beyond that when he goes into the trees. The field of view is narrow, and the bubble affect of blurring around the perimeter cannot be discounted as barely noticeable, as some reviews have said.
