When you roll up a monocular pod, it will shut power to the intensifier tube. Not the case with the 1431. The SI/PVS-14 Photonis Echo White Phosphor is a Gen 2 Commercial offering with a thinner film than the AN/PVS-31A, and options for a Steele Protective Lens and Wilcox L4 G24 Mount. It also offers excellent battery life with one AA battery that can last up to 30 hours, or four AA batteries for a battery life of up to 60 hours. Not only do SuperGain tubes provide improved light amplification and more information to the user, but effects can be felt on the user’s end as well—the overall brighter image allows the pupil to remain smaller, even in low light conditions where image intensifier tubes begin to dim, effectively improving the user’s vision and allowing them to take full advantage of the information provided by the SuperGain tube as well as reduce eye fatigue from long term use. Meanwhile, neither image intensifier life, nor reliability are affected, with SuperGain tubes being every bit as durable and reliable as typical Unfilmed White Phosphor image intensifier tubes. Although they have a good tolerance level it’s not rigid enough. Due to the fact that most of the housings are plastic. However, PVS 31 is more rigid than PVS 15.

Manufactured by L3Harris and distributed by TNVC, SuperGain Unfilmed White Phosphor image intensifier tubes are already in use with the United States military, including Special Operations Forces in some of the DoD's most elite formations. These new SuperGain image intensifiers increase the Luminance Gain (Gain) specification from the standard 40,000-80,000 fL/fc to between 100,000-120,000 fL/fc, greatly increasing the image intensifier’s ability to amplify and collect light, resulting in a noticeably brighter image with increased low light performance and extending operational envelope and ability to see into dark areas. Determining which night vision goggles are the most suitable for individual needs can be a difficult decision depending upon ergonomics, durability, and battery life. The AN/PVS-31A BNVD and the SI/PVS-14 Photonis Echo White Phosphor are two of the most popular night vision goggles on the market. Both offer superior situational awareness and several options for customization, as well as a variety of features to consider when assessing their ergonomics, durability, and battery life. Night vision binoculars are vastly used among travelers, photographers, hunters, and militaries. Among them, the PVS series is widely used for its high specification.As mentioned earlier, the RNVG boasts a wider field of view, making it suitable for scenarios where broader visual coverage is crucial. When it comes to night vision devices, the RNVG, PVS-31, and DTNVG stand out as top contenders, each offering unique advantages for various applications. Automatic Brightness Control: This feature ensures the device adjusts its brightness automatically based on ambient light conditions, preventing image saturation in high-light areas. From the end-user’s perspective, the SuperGain tubes will be noticeably brighter than standard Unfilmed White Phosphor tubes under most conditions and will provide more useable information in extreme darkness. However, the most significant difference that users in the field will see is the ability to see deeper into dark corners and underbrush, allowing them to detect potential threats beyond the range of typical image intensifiers. This can be a significant advantage in both urban areas / inside of structures as well as in more rural areas with vegetation and heavy canopy and subterranean operations.

Adopted by USSOCOM as the AN/PVS-31A, the L3Harris BNVD has been in use by U.S. Special Operations Forces for several years as well as allied forces, however they have not been widely available on the commercial market. Similar to PVS 14, PVS 15 has only one AA battery compartment. So, there are chances that it might face the same problem. PVS 31 on the other hand, requires 4 1.5 volts AA batteries. Yes, they can be used in day time as well. During the day, the original image will be shown without using infrared. However, the visibility won’t be very clear under bright sunlight. After all, they are designed for low-light vision. What’s the difference between binoculars and night goggles? In conclusion, both the AN/PVS-31A BNVD and the SI/PVS-14 Photonis Echo White Phosphor are excellent night vision goggles that offer a variety of features and specifications. Each model has its own advantages and disadvantages, so it’s important to look at the specs and features before deciding which one is best for your application.Now, let’s compare these two exceptional night vision devices across various parameters to better understand their strengths and weaknesses. 1. Optical Performance AN/PVS-31D (F5032) White Phosphor Dual Tube Goggle 2400+ FOM Minimum. All AN/PVS-31D (F5032) Ship With A G24 Lite Helmet Mount. So, people who’re looking for binoculars with wide range FOV, PVS 15 and PVS 31 is a good choice. Both have a field of view of 40 degrees. Experience the latest evolution of Image Intensified Night Vision devices from L3Harris, being used in the toughest conditions for the most critical missions by U.S. DoD and Tier 1 Special Operations worldwide. The BNVD’s twin-tube design offers greater reliability in the field against failure or damage versus a single-tube night vision devices. Manual system gain adjustment allows operator to control image brightness to match the environment. The BNVD also can be used as a monocular by rotating either left or right channel, up and out of the way. In The Box

The RNVG and PVS-31 offer remarkable optical performance, providing clear and sharp images in low-light situations. Over the years, TNVC has been fully committed to making the very best and most advanced, High-Performance MIL-SPEC, duty-ready night vision, thermal, and visual augmentation systems technology available to ALL customers. Binoculars offer a large FOV and can zoom images up to 10x. Night goggles have less magnification power and can magnify up to 3-5x. Binoculars offer better views of distant objects than night goggles. Night goggles are more suitable for near objects. It’s also hard to see with them in brightness. Conclusion Its lightweight design ensures comfort during prolonged use, and the option for hands-free operation with various mounting choices adds to its appeal. The RNVG provides crystal-clear night vision, ensuring clear observations in low-light conditions. PVS31 Night Vision The AN/PVS-31A BNVD is a dual tube goggle with improved white phosphor tube technology and an ergonomic low-profile design. It also has superior situational awareness compared to a single tube goggle and is designed to increase system resolution and significantly reduce head-borne weight.

Some people have asked me what the quality of the housing is like. It seems decent. Comparing it to the real thing I do not see much of a difference. The real PVS-31 housing appears to have a sandy texture to it whereas the 1431 has splotches like galvanized steel. As I said earlier it looks similar to ANVIS polymer which leads me to believe it was made with glass filled nylon. I have seen a handful of photos and posts about broken PVS-31s. So it is not like the real ones are super robust either.
