Pard Night Vision Monocular, Night Vision Goggles with Rangefinder, Clip-on Scope for Night Watching or Obervation, Night Viewing Range up to 350m, HD Photos & Videos, NV007SPLRF

Disclosure, this is my first time using a night vision scope adapter, so I don't have much to compare it to.What I have been doing is reading reviews for years, and always was well aware of the downsides in quality when you don;t have thousands to spend.What attracted me to the PARD was both the positive reviews, and specifically the fact that this can be used with my already mounted quality Meopta scope.This scope is amazing once it's dialed in. I added an external IR light, but the built in one isn't bad. Adding an external improves image quality though, as well as essentially doubling the battery run time, because you aren't asking the PARD battery to power the light.Attaching to my Meopta 4-20 was a breeze. I was up and shooting quickly. I love that I can twist it off and be day shooting without in a second.I'm not yet using all the features, screen shots and video recording. But every time I think, "I wonder if I can use it to do..xxx" the answer has been yes. I've connected it to my cell phone via wifi so I can monitor without craning my neck to look through the objective. I am ordering an HDMI LCD to make that even easier (yes it has a micro HDMI port)I was concerned that the added depth behind the scope objective would be a problem, but on my current set up, it really isn't a problem. It's size is such that it doesn't move you that far back on the cheek riser.Highly recommended.

Some initial thoughts after getting the unit set up and tested...I thought long and hard about getting the NV007SPLRF. I was planning to get the NV007s, which is less expensive, but I was intrigued by the rangefinder and the upgrades the SP brings. So I waited and waited and kept researching whether this was the unit I wanted to spend so much money on. I wound up choosing this over the ATN, Sightmark, Sytong, and One Leaf units, mostly because I wanted a good-quality clip-on and not a dedicated NV scope.Anyway, I'm glad I went with the NV007SPLRF. It's a bit pricey (part of why I only give it 4 stars), but it appears to be very well-made. The body is aluminum with very little if any plastic. The instruction manual leaves much to be desired, but luckily there are enough videos on Youtube (mostly the NV007s) that help with getting things set up. Tech support, at least from the seller, isn't all that great either. I'm the one who asked the reticle adjustment question and got a "shake the adapter" response. ??? Much of how to operate this unit is thankfully intuitive.I was hoping the NV007SPLRF would come with the advertised quick-release adapter. It did, and it makes mounting the unit quite a bit easier. My scope has a small objective - 40mm - so I needed to use the thickest (#3) adapter ring, and it required no tape. I did have to fiddle with the shim a few times to get that pesky reticle adjustment to be dead center. The manual, of course, gives no guidance on this.The battery does drain quickly, so I picked up some extra 18650 batteries and a charger (I don't want to charge batteries in the Pard, even though I think you can). I'm not using WiFi and I won't do much if any recording, so I'm hoping to get good battery life. I did buy this primarily for nighttime pest control, so I will use the IR, which does seem to be effective. The range finder is pretty cool, especially at night, and it's accurate.I made sure my scope was zeroed before I mounted the Pard. Once I had it mounted I shot some targets and it held zero perfectly. I even used the digital zoom feature on the Pard, and I hit everything I shot at dead on.The menus are clear and intuitive but the actual target image - the home screen - appears a bit darker to me than I expected. It's still fairly clear and you can certainly see what your shooting at, but it's not as bright as the scope-only image.Long story short....my initial impressions are very positive and I recommend this product (but not if it goes back to $700!)
