VERY poor & advertising is not accurate Jan 15, 2008
By Grits CAUTION: I am almost certain this review will apply to this model, though I recently bought (and returned) a similar model. Both are about the same price (I bought mine at Sam's Club). Mine is (was) a 1.5x24, this one is a 2.0x24, but otherwise the specs appear to be the same. And the shape and size are the same between the two models, just a different color scheme. The advertising on both says it can be used for surveillance, etc. Not so! If you merely wanted to observe for a while, or wait until the person did something specific or moved to a particular position before deciding what you do next, forget it - he's already aware of you because he can see your red light pointing directly at him. There may be infrared coming out the front, but there's also visible red light which, by definition, is not infrared (which lies between visible light and microwave frequencies).
The pictures on the packaging were deceptive at best, also. Focus is nowhere near as good as what's depicted in the advertising. And make SURE you read the instructions first about initial focus, or you'll never be able to figure out how to focus it.
I really wanted this to work, but was concerned about how good or poor a low-end night vision scope would be. I took it back the very next evening. I'll have to save up for a more expensive scope if I really want a good one that much - this model is not much more than an expensive toy. I wasn't expecting the quality of night vision equipment used by the military, but this was still unacceptable.
