Rigel 2500 Binocular ReviewSpecially manufactured for long range observation, the Rigel 2500 Night Vision Binoculars offers the highest possible magnificationin a 1st Generation handheld night vision device. High powered 5.0 mgnification lenses make the Rigel 2500 night vision binoculars ideal for hunters, wildlife enthusiasts and security personel who demand to see clear details from beyond 200 yds.
The Rigel 2500 also features 2 infrared IR illuminators for the viewer to choose from; the 15Mw built-in IR illuminator allows the user to view in total darkness at short distances and the 120Mw high power diode IR illuminator mounted on the top of the night vision binocular for use on demand that gives the user the maximum viewing distance in pitch black environments. The Rigel 2500 also includes a protective overlight auto shut off sensor, and extra sensitive image tube for bright images, with power and IR light indicators.
PLEASE NOTE: There are many variables which influence the distance one sees with night vision devices-amongst them the object’s size, the level of detail being sought and the observation conditions. Night vision devices detect much further under a full moon and clear skies than they will under a new moon and cloudy skies. Many different formulas are used to determine the statistic of maximum viewing range and this varies by manufacturer, so ultimately the generation of the intensifier tube is much more relevant than any quoted statistic when determining the maximum viewing range.
