The Pilot Pro 8X Infrared Monocular is one of the best entry-level night vision devices that money can buy. It can see in complete darkness, zoom hundreds of feet, and has full onboard media recording capabilities.

The Pilot Pro achieves night vision functionality by using a sensor optimized for the near-infrared portion of the electromagnetic spectrum. While humans and animals can not see the light in this part of the spectrum, devices like the Pilot Pro absolutely can.

This sort of device, known by some as digital night vision, can be used for a number of applications but is most commonly used for nature observation, hiking, security, photography, property surveillance, stargazing, construction, and virtually any form of outdoor recreation.

This model comes equipped with a number of proprietary firmware and hardware upgrades that make it particularly unique. It features an integrated lithium-ion battery, a true glass optic (3X magnification) with amazing light transmission properties, 10X computer aided zoom, and digital crosshairs.

Because the Pilot Pro is a magnified optic, it is important to be mindful of the field-of-view curve. The Pilot Pro has a minimum practical observation distance of approximately 15 feet. If you're interested in something with a much wider field-of-view, consider taking a look at a night vision monocular like the IRIS.

Performance Disclaimer*

The performance of any night vision device is highly contingent on present atmospheric conditions. Variables like cloud coverage, moonlight, starlight, and proximity to urban light pollution can have a dramatic impact on performance. Image properties like brightness, contrast, color, and sharpness can all be influenced by these variables. To produce the best image possible, the user should use his or her best judgement to adjust the range and the strength of the illuminator as needed.
