Check the HV to the tube and see if you can see any discolouration or spots on the tube - they often indicate tube failure. Many binoculars use the one power supply for both tubes as the current demand is very low. Often, one tube operation indicates tube failure, but a wire or connection could be at fault.

I have a Oldelft PD4D night vision binocular. I have no idea what it is nor the worth. They are OD green in color. I was under the impression that they are Russian optics? Can you help. Thanks, Mike

Hello, this information will cost you the United States Debt!!! OK, it free. Oldelft a company in Belgium the used or still is making very fine dinner ware and other porcelain vases. Backing the early eighty's to about the end of the 80"s. Oldelft started manufacture NV devises and they also made scopes, monoculars, and binoculars that had some excellent quality to them--Extremely excellent quality. European Corporation bought the rights from Oldlft NV and try manufacture NV devises in Europe. Around this time most countries in Europe were manufacturing their own NV devise. The Night Vision Corp. sold to Phototonics in Calif; in which they manufacture NV devises and their parts and other things.

Because they are OD green they were used by the Military of Europe and many Arab countries who circumvented the International embargo on such items. To be a "Capitalist....is to supply there demand when it's needed" A little secret here: Embargo against countries don't work... It will never work. To be a capitalist is also to be greedy.

Greedy supplies the world for those who don't have it, and those who will manufactured it. I would say a majority of the Arab Countries have Oldelft NV devise in the eighties and nineties. Now, they make their own. There is probably 75 countries in the world that manufacture NV devises or parts for them.

Finally, There are not Russian Optics. Their quality is to good to be Russian. Does this Oldlft binocular have wording on the side saying: "Three Cascade" If it does send me a message I will tell you what it mean. What are they worth? It would be hard to say...such as, what shape are they in, lens quality-scrached, broken, does it operate, what is the quality of night viewing capabilities. etc. Now, if they are good shape and it works. Also, it rare here in the US because I don't think they were ever sold here, just in Europe and other places. approx. $200 to $300; of course the price could be higher and probably would be. stewbison

I search for my Baigish 12 USSR made an new akku

What type of trouble you have with your Red Star NV devise? If you are trying to search for the Russian manufacture. Then use this as you search "Manufacture image intensifier tubes" and "Manufacture of night vision scopes, monoculars and binoculars" The search engine will list the manufactures of these devises through out the world. stewbison

Where to access the battery compartment to replace batteries on Tasco NV 356

It could be on the top with a small hatch door that holds two AA batteries. Also, there could be a screw in cap on the back that could hold one or two CR123A 3 volt batties.

Unless it has finger crip lever on the top, this piezo electric plunger. The plunger needs to be activated about twenty plus times to build some current for the storage capacitors that will charge a small batteries. stewbison

Binoculars power on, then immediately off NIGHT OWL OPTICS NIGHT VISION BINOCULARS NOXB5

Hello there. Are you pointing your NV binoculars at bright light, if so, please stop. Therefore, if you are not then possibly the iit (image intensifier tube) is bad, or the auto shut-off is also shorted. Night Owl Optics are in El Paso, TX. Call Night Owl up, they won't tell how to fix it. But they will tell where to send it. "It is proporitary" which mean, they are the one to fix it. Sorry, stewbison.

WHAT BATTERY

Hello, most of these NV monoculars uses CR123A. It a 3 volt battery about 1/2 size of AA and its girth is a little larger. Aslo, some use two AA batteries. Little information here. Some of these night visison monoculars and binoculars that sealed for water infiltration are epoxy together. stewbison

I have a Rigel Ops Pro 2100 Nigh Vision binoculars cannot see any image at all everything is black when i look thru them

Yes, Rigel Ops is a Russian company. It manufactured NV devises. How old is the binoculars? Has it been droped or abused? If it has been droped a few time, then the image tubes can't take that type of abuse. The image tubes go bad. I don't have my shop up and working. Maybe in the future I can start repairing these NV devises. GB...stewbison

Hello, Kalinka Baigish is Russian and they do make NV devises but China? Now, the Chinese do manufacture NV Image Intensfier tubes to Generation 2 but manufacture the hole night vision devise is new to me. Of course, about 1/3 of the world countries manufacture some sort of night vision devises or there parts.

Contact Night Vision Optics they sell these Russian night vision devise under the brand name: Night Vision Optic and they have a logo. There are only companies in the US that manufacture night vision stuff. Also, some of the US companies do use US image tubes and other electronic components, and maybe US optics are used.

I have ATN night jaguar binoculars and one side has stopped working, i want them repaired and i live in the uk, what do i do??

Hello, it seems that there are quit a few people that have ATN products that will destroy it self just setting on a shelve in the closet. I sorry to mention this to you. This ATN Night Jaguar Binocular are manufactured in Russia.


The biggest problem is those Russian image intensifier tubes. They are manufactured without any type of quality control, also they are made with very thin glass, and what is the quality of this Russian made glass. About 85% of the problem with a number of vender's that sell and ply their NV goods that all are manufactured in Russian, and that even includes the cases. Night Vision vendors will have the Russian put their name's and logo's them and sell them as; excellent quality Night Vision Monoculars, Binoculars, scopes, and other NV devises.



This could be a problem for you being in England. I think that ATN might have a couple of distributors located in England, and Europe. You need to check their web site. Also, you know that this ATN NV binocular is about 7 years old. I'm fairly sure that ATN will try to get you to trade in for a upgrade which more British Pounds. They might also tell you to ship it to the US for repairs. You can try to auction it off on eBay in Europe. I need some parts, what do you want for it? Sorry buddy. Best of Luck, GB you.....stewbison
