Yukon Optics Viking RX 5x40 Night Vision Binoculars. Yukon Advanced Optics’ engineers kept versatility and comfort in mind when creating the Viking series of night vision binoculars. Each of the Viking series of night vision binoculars are similar yet different.
The Viking LT 2x24 night vision binocular has a magnification of 2x and an objective lens of 24mm. The unit’s eye relief of 12 mm allows for comfortable viewing while the 400 m range of detection makes this unit perfect for long distance viewing.
The Viking LT 2x24 provides clear viewing in total darkness by utilizing a
single built-in IR illuminator with a range of 150 m. Throw the ergonomically-designed, rubberized body around your neck for a long expedition; the lightweight (21 oz.), compact (6.9 x 4.8 x 2.8 in.) unit is surprisingly comfortable, making your viewing experience that much more enjoyable. Like all Viking models, the LT utilizes Yukon’s newly designed Eclipse lens cap system, which removes lens cap hassles, dual eye diopter adjustment with central focusing, and a wide field of view (30 degrees).
Fully multicoated glass optics provide a high degree of light transmission, enhanced by the high-grade, Yukon Quality Certified Gen 1 image intensifier tubes, which are powered by one 3V CR123A battery.
Gen 1 image intensifier tubes work by using a photocathode to transform the gathered light into electrons, which then pass through the image tube and bombard a Phosphor screen to produce the green illumination of an image. The Viking image intensifier tubes provide high-quality viewing in nighttime conditions; however the unit can be used during the day.
All image intensifier tubes are extremely light sensitive and can be destroyed by bright lights; however the Viking LT 2x24 remedies this problem by including Yukon’s exclusive Eclipse lens cap system. These lens caps include a pinhole to protect the unit from bright light, but still allow the user the option of daytime use. Yukon’s exclusive Eclipse lens cap system not only protects the unit from bright light, it also saves users from many irritations. Everyone knows the hassles associated with binoculars’ lens caps - they get lost or tangled, but without them the lenses become dusty or scratched up. The Eclipse lens cap system features flip-top lens covers that can be flipped up to fit against the binoculars’ body and rotated to ensure that they are out of the viewing field. Also, the covers can be taken off all together.
In addition to the Eclipse lens cap system, the water resistant Viking utilizes a soft, one-piece eyecup to prevent external light distortion and light leakage from the device, allowing the user to remain hidden in the night.
The Viking makes use of a built-in PULSE infrared illuminator for added image clarity in total darkness. The PULSE system utilizes quick infrared energy bursts that pierce the darkness further to increase distance, visibility and image quality. The PULSE IR System provides the highest level of infrared illumination without significant battery drainage. The same “pulsing” frequency that is invisible to human eyes infiltrates longer distances due to the Infrared Illuminator’s quick energy bursts.
The Viking LT’s 2x24 magnification is perfect for general observation, outdoor activities including hunting, boating, hiking/camping, cave exploration, and commercial and sport fishing. Professional uses include search and rescue, surveillance and law enforcement.
