Honestly didn’t expect this to be all that great, knowing up front is is best during partial moon. The night it arrived there wasn’t any moon showing and as expected it needed the IR light, but wow it was clear. The next night I was able to get out during twilight, and could only see about 100’ with my own eyes. When I put this on twilight and night mode and WOW could I see with now help from the IR light, way into the tree line over 100 yards (not feet). I am so glad I took the plunge on buying this, and that it wasn’t a frivolous purchase. BTW I own high end NVG and am always concerned about burning the intensifier in urban or street lit settings. This fits the bill perfectly with no risk to the device. Oh and the added memory size is a huge help Inwasnt aware of during purchase.
