BESTSIGHT DIY Night Vision Scope,Quick Installation Barrle,5" Display Screen with 5w 850nm IR(Infrared Illuminator),View 218YARD/200m in Night,for 38-44mm Eyepiece Scope (Rifle Scope)

This was my first experience with night vision scopes. This is a little different because it is more of a system than a scope. It attaches to your existing mounted scope. It arrived quickly from Amazon and was extremely well packaged. I wasn’t expecting much in the way of quality materials based on the low price. I was pleasantly surprised with the quality of all parts of this system. I mounted it on my scope in about 10 minutes but that time would be halved if I mounted again. I tried to test it but could not get it to work properly. It was my fault. I didn’t realize there were three separate switches that have to be on for it to work properly. One on the illumination light, one on the screen,and one on the camera cylinder. In my defense the instructions are pretty much useless. But it is generally simple enough that it can be figured out. If I would make one suggestion I would recommend comprehensive instructions. I nearly packed mine up and sent it back until I made one last attempt and found a YouTube video review showing the third switch. Glad I didn’t. This thing works great for the price. It’s as accurate as your scope is. I could identify a rabbit at 75 yards in total darkness and a coyote at over 100 yards. I believe I should be able to use it on coyotes out to at least 150 yards. I would recommend this system.

I don’t understand how people are leaving negative reviews on this product. I set it up on a .22 and use it for shooting rats at night. It works FLAWLESSLY!! I’ve been using it for almost 4 years now and have yet to have any issues or failures. I even left it out in the rain by mistake one night, and STILL it works perfectly!! For the price…. You honestly cannot expect anything more. I’d buy it again without thinking twice. It’s never lost its zero, and it’s Never NOT worked for me. I’d absolutely recommend it Now Granted, I’ve never mounted it on anything with any significant recoil, but for plinking Critters at night with a .22 it’s one of my favorite toys by far!!! The Screen image quality is MUCH BETTER then the video I uploaded below, I was using my phone to record the screen while trying to steady the rifle, aim at the rat and try NOT to jerk the trigger all at the same time So I apologize for the quality of the video but you can see that it works great

Not a bad concept, just poorly executed. I had low expectations for this product based solely on its price and the capability it's supposed to provide. However, it failed to live up to even those expectations. First sign of an issue was the product documentation, which was severely deficient and lacking in the simplest details, or even adequate diagrams. Secondly, the product is more prototype than finished product. Its components are not of very good quality, in particular, the viewing screen is very cheap and not robust at all. The connections are in no way ruggedized for use as designed. Merely usb connections without any locking mechanism to prevent loss of connection. The method of connecting the camera to the scope eyepiece is flimsy, and requires use of self-adhesive tape like you would use for covering the site of a shot, or like if you had a scrape and bandaged it. Not electronics grade at all. This should have been electrical grade rubber tape at least. The camera piece also is not really secure even when fully tight, it allows for movement and shifting of the view through the scope objective lens. The camera piece also lacks the ability to telescope or adjust the camera distance from the eyepiece for best view. Finally, once the product was attached and freshly charged batteries were installed, it failed to function properly. Initially, it came on and worked for a couple of minutes. Enough time to walk out the door into the night, switch to night mode, and turn on the IR light, before switching itself off and on in a never ending, unresponsive boot loop. On a positive note, the IR light is super bright and very easily focused. I understand that this is supposed to be budget night vision, but after you figure the cost of a decent scope and add the cost of this product, you might as well buy any other dedicated day/night scope out there. They can be had for between $400 and $500, and with far more capability. Amazon was very good about the return of this product the next morning and processing my refund.

It states that it does not include batteries yet it seems some people are upset. This unit works well as a night scope alternative. The camera mount uses set screws so it may be best to put some electric tape on the scope so your scope does not get scratched. This camera does not record video, sound or photos as some do. When this camera and infrared light are mounted it makes the gun a bit heavier and not easy to handle. I use a gun cradle to eliminate that issue. What I particularly like about this camera is that I only have to focus on the screen and not the process of looking through the scope, aligning my eye to reduce parallax while acquiring the target. As I age I get less stable using a scope and this tool helps me a lot. Only 4-stars because it lacks recording capabilities. While many of these types of night vision cameras are available they are not all the same. Read the details carefully to make sure it works on your scope. I found that this mounting system was not stable using it on a lighted reticle scope because the that scope had an adjustment where the camera mounts and was in the way.

So my fault for not checking until this year when I actually unboxed this product but the flashlight won’t turn on. The optics could be better. But they do the trick

Très bon produit C'est impressionnant de regarder dans l'écran et voir aussi clairement ce qui se passe la nuit Ne pas s'attendre à voir comme en plein jour ! En noir et blanc seulement, mais très clair S'il y a de la brume, il est normal que ce ne soit pas idéal Ajustement pour la distance Avons montré à plusieurs amis et tous en voulaient un ! Facile d'installation Rapport qualité-prix excellent

Does not work at all dont waste your money. All you can see is black no matter what you do or how many times you adjust it. Garbage product Amazon should be ashamed for letting it be sold on their platform. 0 Stars

This is pretty good. It's actually pretty amazing how far and clear it goes. The batteries only lasted a few hours (it was a very cold night) but they are rechargeable. The only issue I had was the screen was pretty bright so you lose your natural eye night vision when you look up from it. There might even be an option for that on the screen? I didn't have a look yet. I would recommend it.

I found that mounting this on a spotting scope and tripod to be very handy. It works well but you need to cut the slide in the housing longer as spotting scopes have next to no eye relief therefore the camera needs to be way ahead. But after that it works great. In the photos I have an 8" target just over 10m away and the spotting scope set to the lowest setting, in this case 20x and I can clearly see the 8-9 and 10 rings. I will test the battery life with the batteries I have to see if I need to order higher mAh cells, I would need to get about 4 or 5 hours out of it minimum. I may need to bring spare batteries but this unit does not ship with batteries so that is a separate matter. A report on the power consumption would help. This option does not expose the camera and screen to recoil. An SD card to record would be nice, and a larger screen. Perhaps in another model... I would be happy to test... To modify, find the slot for adjusting the camera distance from the scope, elongate the slot to 3/4 of the tube length and that should do it. FOLLOWUP- A fully charged set of 34000 mAh batteries lasted 7 hours and were still going but I ran out of time so enough battery life for a full day at the range

A bit bulky and odd shooting from a screen. Wish it had more adjustability for smaller scopes. Returned and bought a proper night scope
