Infrared First Look At The 2019 Black Widow V3 for around $149.
BLACK WIDOW™ V3 Night Vision Optic
Infrared Illumination - Unlike most night vision devices, the BLACK WIDOW™ V3 Infrared Optic does not require any ambient light for operation. It can be used in complete and total darkness. It is a true night vision optic in every sense of the word. It also has the added benefit of being able to see through glass surfaces which is something thermal imagers can not do. https://shop.outbackpitstop.com/coll...ow-v3-infrared https://outbackpitstop.com/2018/09/t...freak-you-out/ Seem to be some good reviews for an inexpensive night vision?

I have a $120 night vision monocular. It works, but not really great...it is more like a 1st generation NOD. You get what you pay for.
Maybe this one is much better, being as it is IR? I remember my IR Dragon sight in the Army. It was a huge thing, and I almost never took it out of the arms room, even for inspection. I didn't want to be responsible for a $13,000 item. The fun thing about it was that you could see someone's footprints glowing on the ground if they had just walked past. It was the closest thing us Grunts had to thermal sights like the TOW guys and tankers had.

At $160 it's worth the gamble seeing how I have no IR instruments at all. Wondering if you could mount it on a rifle?
