Night vision goggles can be used as binoculars for observations in low light and in total darkness: many models allow you to change eyepieces. However, we should not forget that with an increase in the field of view will be less. In different models of glasses, electron-optical converters are used, and digital converters can be used in night vision goggles of the latest generations. Depending on the diameter of the lens, type of converter and the presence of infrared illumination, night vision goggles can have different detection ranges. The price also depends on the configuration of the model: night vision goggles created on the basis of the 1st generation image intensifier tubes will be cheaper than, for example, models with a digital converter. Another point that you should pay attention to when choosing night vision goggles is the reviews of people who have already bought the model you are interested in.
Where to find night vision goggles?
Today there are many online stores and specialized optics stores offering night vision goggles of various models. For example, in our catalog you can buy Viking Goggles 1x24 night vision goggles manufactured under the Yukon brand. This compact and rather light model has no magnification and has a wide field of view, which allows you to comfortably navigate in the dark. A wide-angle IR illuminator provides excellent panoramic images in the complete absence of ambient light. The lenses of the model are made of high-quality optical glass with an antireflection coating and form a clear picture. The device will detect objects at a fairly large distance - up to 80 meters. This model has an affordable price.
Parachute
In San Andreas, developers have introduced a huge amount of flyable transport, everything from private helicopters to huge airliners. With so many features, players will spend many hours in the air. And if there are lovers to fly, then there are lovers to get from these planes and helicopters. No one forbade jumping without a parachute, but still it’s not so practical to remain without a weapon or with 2% HP, so there is a simple but effective way to mitigate the parachute - a parachute.
With such a backpack on your shoulders, you can safely jump out of planes when needed or to have fun. With a parachute, there are two official types of jumps: from an airplane and from a stationary facility. The second type is called B.A.S.E. (Building / Tower / Rock (mountain) / bridge). You need to jump at least once from each of the above to become B.A.S.E. skydiver. In GTA SA, this can be achieved by jumping from the Big Sharp Building, Mount Chilliad, Harvard Bridge and the towers near the Big Ear.
You can find parachutes on the roofs of the highest buildings (there is an entrance to the roof), on bridges and on hills / mountains. Also, you automatically have a parachute if you fly for several minutes on Hydra or Hunter. To open the parachute, click LMB at any time during the flight. You should not open it when even the earth is not visible from the air, otherwise you will have to wait about 10 minutes, but open it too late and CJ will not have time to brake, crashing into the ground and dying. To prevent such troubles, a warning text “Open the parachute” appears at a critical height so that when you see it do not wait and click LMB. without a parachute it is possible to fall and survive, but with a parachute it is impossible without opening it! Also remember that pressing ENTER after opening the parachute puts CJ into a mortal fall.
Where to find: On the roof of the tallest building in Los Santos (entrance below the columns).
Camera
In Vice City, I had to use a camera in a mission, but in San Andreas, in addition to using it in missions, you can carry a camera with you in your arsenal of weapons. No, they can’t kill or hobble on the head, but you can take shots of rzhachnye moments, interesting places and secret camera icons (all of them in San Fierro 50 and for taking pictures of all 50 you are given a set of weapons in highways). Look at our photo album where all the cool and beautiful pictures are displayed during the game.
Where to find it: on the second floor at CJ's house
Fire extinguisher
With new firearms and CJ in hand and the possibility of a fire spreading over the area, a fire extinguisher is indispensable. They can extinguish people, fires on the ground / walls and minor fires on cars. You can also direct the balloon at the enemy and strangle it with carbon dioxide while paralyzing it. And if the charge runs out, then you can warm up with an empty balloon on the head - it will not seem enough!
Where to find: at a gas station, in the north of San Fierro.
Spray paint can
Another innovation that is only in San Andreas. You probably know that in Los Santos there are enemy graffiti that need to be painted over, they will tell you about this in one of the missions at the beginning. Actually, the spray can is needed to paint graffiti, but you can spray it in the face of the enemy (or several), thereby cutting down for a few seconds. If you spray for a long time, then you can kill! You can find a map with graffiti here, and you can download a cool script that allows you to repaint a car with a spray can here.
Where to find it: in CJ's house after completing the "Taggin Up Turf" mission, or on the roof nearby.
Jetpack
This vehicle allows you to rise in the air for a few seconds and move to another point. In GTA, jetpack fuel, and therefore unlimited in time, so you can fly around San Andres for hours. This is convenient because at one time you can find and pick up all the horseshoes to be collected using our secret card (some of the horseshoes are available only on the jetpack, for example, at the top of the billboard).
Unfortunately, there is a strong height limit, so you can climb no higher than 100 meters. But this problem is solvable! The fact is that the jetpack has an altitude score not above sea level, but above the point exactly under the jetpack. This means that you can fly to the lower roof, then to the higher roof, higher, higher and finally land on the tallest building. Thus, you can even fly to Mount Chilliad. You will not see the jetpack icon in the game, because instead of it a 9mm or semi-automatic will automatically appear.
Where to find it: it will appear near the house in an abandoned building after completing the mission "Green Goo"
Radio detonator
Designed to detonate the bombs described above. Choosing a detonator and pressing LMB undermines all the bombs you set. He will be in your arsenal immediately after the bombs themselves. If you put the last available bomb, then the detonator will automatically appear.
Where to find: appears in the arsenal after installing the first bomb.
Night-vision device
Allows you to see dark places much brighter and, accordingly, improves orientation. There is one convenient feature: to wear, select points in your arsenal and click LMB. CJ will put on glasses and it will be possible without removing them to choose weapons and soak at night with good vision. After completing the night mess again select the glasses and click LMB to remove them. The device is not very useful since the nights in the GTA are not so dark and the green color of the glasses and interference can seem annoying.
Where to find: in the south of the city of San Fierro, under the bridge of the pedestrian gallery (opposite the cylinder buildings)
Thermal vision device
About the same as night glasses, but more useful. Having dressed them (the same principle), you will kill all sources of heat, for example people. A very convenient device for identifying opponents merging with the background behind them. But the blue color of cold objects combines all the textures so it becomes difficult to determine the surface.
Where to find: under the Big Ear in Las Venturas (in front of the sand jeep bumper)

So, you bought yourself a pair of Eyeclops night vision goggles for Christmas this year! I bet you already tested them and saw how they work, but you probably wonder what you can do with them to have fun, when the initial surprise when observed in the dark subsides.
Here are some games you can try to play indoors in your home, outdoors in a park, or in your yard.
First of all, the classic hide and seek game is perfect for using a good pair of night vision goggles. The game depends on whether each participant has his own set of points or not. And also from where you play: indoors or outdoors.
If you play indoors and you only have one set of glasses, then turn on the light while everyone is hiding, as this is less dangerous than when a group of people try to hide in the dark at the same time.
Once everyone has hidden, turn off the lights. The seeker can search using night vision goggles, which are sure to provide an interesting pastime for everyone.
If everyone has their own points, a game of hide and seek can give you even more pleasure, because you can all hide in the dark! Also, the bonus is that you can allow people to move around after the seeker has already begun to search for you, bringing a whole new level of strategy: sneaking and cunning in the game.
Another game is appropriate to try out around Halloween time. It's called the Haunted House. It is enough for one person to have glasses. He needs to answer questions about how he feels. You can add various ingredients to it, such as grapes, pasta, kiwi and others.
Another game: in a completely dark room, a person who has glasses leads others and directs them. This is exciting even for regular players, as well as fun for the owner of points, because he can see everything and observe the expression on their faces!
Finally, there is another game that can only appeal to adults (adults can also buy night vision goggles) - night paintball. This game, of course, you need to play on the street, in a park or a large yard. It is even better if you find a park with many trees, bushes and places to hide.
In principle, you need to play the same way as in regular paintball. Except that at the beginning of the game there is about 10 minutes for everyone to find a good place to hide, taking full advantage of the darkness. When this "grace" period is over, the game officially begins, everyone puts on their points, and the fun begins. You can practice this game in the sports and entertainment complex "Paintball Park"
In addition to the military field, this device is used in many areas of life: hiking, rescue operations, hunting. Despite its wide distribution, many decide to purchase this device for the first time and know almost nothing about it. Therefore, here we will consider what night vision goggles are, how to choose the right option.
How night vision goggles work
This device consists of double eyepieces and a belt for fastening on the head or helmet. NVGs are intended for observation in the dark from a long distance. The principle of their work is complex, but if you do not delve into the physical details, it can be explained in simple words.
In an open area, a certain amount of illumination from the moon or stars falls on a beast or other object that is being monitored, and it reflects this light. NVG collect it, repeatedly enhance and reproduce for the eyes of the observer. The image has only shades, it is monochrome and is reproduced in green. It is his eye that perceives best.
For cases when there is no natural light (heavy clouds, fog), the devices are equipped with infrared lamps. For human vision, they are not dangerous, and they help to discern the desired item.
Types of night vision goggles - how to choose the best for hunting
Hunters use several types of night vision devices:
The latter are most popular, since during their operation the hands of the hunter are free. These devices are convenient in that they do not require special transportation conditions. You can immediately put them on your head, and when necessary, drop it on your eyes.
Depending on the model, NVGs are available with wide or medium visibility, with different vision ranges, with or without additional attachments.
Binocular glasses are used mainly in aviation, they have a complex device, rather big weight and high price. For hunting, it is better to choose a pseudobinocular model. It is easy to use and design, lightweight, enhances the image with its subsequent distribution on two eyepieces.
If you do not know where to find night vision goggles, browse our catalog. We have presented the products of world famous brands: Combat, Pulsar, etc. Due to the wide assortment, it is not difficult for both an amateur and a professional to choose the suitable option.
“Night glasses” is not the invention of another science fiction writer, but a really working tool for observing in extremely low or no light conditions. This device is successfully used not only by hunters and the military, but also by nature lovers, tourists, security guards, law enforcement officers, rescuers, airsoft players and various researchers who work in the dark.
Operating principle
There are several types of glasses that use a fundamentally different “stuffing”. These are digital night vision goggles, devices based on electronic optical signal converters and thermal imaging models. Most often used products collected on the image intensifier tube.
The principle of night vision goggles
If you do not delve into the technical "jungle", then the operation of the device is as follows:
- The lens collects the weakest night light, or the reflected light of infrared illumination, which is often used in the so-called. infrared night vision goggles;
- The rays of light are focused and directed to the photocathode of the electron-optical converter, which turns the photon flux into a similar electron flux;
- The photoelectron multiplier greatly enhances and accelerates the flow of electrons, the number of which is growing like an avalanche. Microchannel technologies and elements on gallium arsenide are also used, in short, the electron flow is enhanced;
- Electrons fall on the luminescent anode, which is under high voltage, and they knock out photons from it, which completely repeat the original picture, but are already repeatedly amplified;
- The resulting flux of photons, or, in other words, light, is directed by optics into the eyepieces of the glasses, and the user sees a picture inaccessible to the naked eye of an ordinary observer, getting the opportunity of a full night view of objects or the panorama as a whole.
As a result, you get an advantage over an animal or a person who is unable to fully see in low night light conditions.
The principle of the image intensifier tube
Important! For glasses that work to enhance weak light, at least some light is needed. That is, in conditions of complete absence of lighting (caves, houses, underground passages, etc.), the device has nothing to strengthen, and it does not work. In these cases, backlighting is required, which is implemented using infrared LEDs or lasers.
Digital devices operate on CCD arrays, which convert the light collected by the lenses into a digital signal, amplify it and supply it to an LED monitor that transmits the image into the eyepieces of the viewer.
Thermal imaging glasses collect and amplify infrared radiation coming from any heated bodies. The use of such night vision goggles for hunting, military or rescue operations is especially effective, since they do not need additional illumination. Such glasses can be seen by any living objects, since their temperature is much higher than the temperature of the surrounding landscape, which distinguishes such goals from the general panorama.
Important! The disadvantage of thermal imaging devices is their high price, as well as the limitation in use associated with the temperature of surrounding objects. If the observation is carried out in a heated landscape (background), then the target will merge with it and become invisible to the observer.
Features
The main feature of night vision goggles (NVG) is the ability to observe the area with free hands. The device is fixed in the working position with the help of a special mask that is mounted on the head or helmet due to a system of puffs and belts that securely hold the device in a position convenient for you.
As a result, you can hold in your hands a weapon, a video camera, a camera or drive a vehicle. At any time, the glasses can be thrown up and observe the terrain in a natural way.
All this greatly simplifies the observation process and frees up hands, which is very important for solving a number of problems. Binocular execution (the presence of a separate eyepiece for each eye) with the lack of proximity helps to evaluate the distance between objects and their actual size, simulating normal vision.
Fact! Night goggles are the most convenient type of night vision devices for long-term observations, since all other types of NVD have to be held in hands, which quickly tires. Also, glasses allow you to freely move and navigate in space, because their optics have no increase.
How to choose
The choice of glasses for night observation should be treated responsibly, taking into account all aspects of their further application. Depending on what tasks you are going to solve using the device, pay attention to the following parameters: 
- A generation of used image intensifier tubes. This affects not only the quality of the picture and the range of observation, but also the cost of points;
- Availability of additional features. Ask our consultants about the additional features of the available models.
- Manufacturer. NVG are represented in the widest range of both domestic and foreign firms. It is important to get technical support, service and warranty service, the availability and availability of all necessary parts and devices to expand the capabilities of the device;
- Specifications. Carefully read all product parameters. Make sure that the selected model most fully meets your requirements and is able to solve all the tasks that you set for it.
- Price. Relate the cost of the device and the benefits that it will bring. Consider the tasks that you are going to solve with the help of one or another NVG. Do not buy models that are too expensive for entertainment or cheap - for serious work.
Advice! It’s difficult, if not impossible, to find your own bearings in the models offered on the market without the experience of handling various models, please contact our specialists. Our experience in the field of optical devices will help you make the right choice for your budget and operating conditions.
Night Vision Goggles
Hunting is one of the activities that often use NVGs. They help to track down the game in the night forest most effectively, because your hands are always ready to throw up a gun, aim and fire. The important thing is that you can fold the eyepieces of the glasses and use the night vision scope, so you get full vision support to find and hit the target.
Pulsar Edge GS 1x20 glasses with a mask will be especially good here. They have a convenient observation distance of 150 meters. The image intensifier CF-Super will give a clear picture, and a single increase and low weight of 650 grams will allow you to move without unnecessary stress on the head and to navigate well in the selected area.
Night Vision Goggles for Drivers
Driving a car in the dark night, when the headlights cannot be used for one reason or another, as well as driving on unfamiliar rough terrain is now possible thanks to NVG. Your hands are free to control the vehicle, and your eyes see all potentially dangerous areas, obstacles and other obstructions that could interfere with driving or damage your car.
Points PN 14K of the Novosibirsk Instrument-Making Plant (NPZ) are well suited for this task. At a relatively low price, the device has everything you need to drive at night: good protection against flare by oncoming headlights, powerful IR illumination, a robust rubberized case and a 2+ or 3rd generation image intensifier that gives an excellent picture at a distance that allows you to drive a car.
Important! Using a special nozzle, PN 14K can be used not only as glasses, but also as night vision binoculars with 4x magnification.
DIY night vision goggles
The network is replete with articles and video instructions for the manufacture of various night vision devices, including night vision goggles. These experiences deserve attention and respect.
Those who want to better understand the topic should definitely watch the videos and even try to repeat the work shown in them. Then you should go to our store and ask to show factory NVD. You will immediately feel the difference between an amateur and a professional device.
ONV from improvised means
There are probably homegrown masters who are able to collect more or less worthy NVD in their workshop. To use such a device for hunting or more serious tasks is at least strange.
Fact! Factory devices are developed by serious designers, engineers, specialists in various fields. The production cycle does not even make sense to describe, because anyone understands that it is fundamentally different from the work of the “garage Kulibins”.
Conclusion
NVG is the most convenient night vision device for long-term observations and situations when it is important to free your hands. Night glasses are suitable for hunters, military, police, rescuers, night researchers, spiliologists, tourists and climbers.
There are many types and types of glasses, so before making a purchase, it is better to consult an Optics Trade specialist who will provide all the information you are interested in and give a lot of valuable recommendations. We wish you a successful hunt, fruitful nightly research and the realization of all your most incredible plans using night vision goggles.
