Mini B AA 18mm Night Vision Binocular – Single Gain

With a total system weight of 435 grams, the MINI B AA 18mm, Dual Tube Night Vision Goggle with Single Gain Control is part of NVD’s light-weight product line. The system features a “Tactical Monocular Cutoff” which turns off power to each channel of the monocular whenever a channel is rotated up out of the user’s line of sight which assists the warfighter in maintaining light-security on the battlefield. The MINI B AA 18mm additionally provides an automatic system power cutoff when the system is transitioned onto the helmet’s mounted stow position, and then powers back on when it is flipped back down. This feature can additionally be disabled by the end user if needed.

The MINI B AA 18mm can operate with either one “AA” Battery which powers the system for 25+ hours, or when used in conjunction with the optional three “AA” battery pack, the MINI B AA will run for additional 85+ hours.

The MINI B incorporates new high performance optics that are not only much lighter, but also offer higher performance than standard optics. Currently the AN/PVS-14 and most other night vision systems, use optics which were only designed for green (P43) phosphor image tubes. However these new optics were designed specifically to be optimized for both White (P45) and Green (P43) image tubes.

The optional external battery pack will only work with our Night Vision Devices manufactured binoculars with an external power port in order to extend the operating life of the system. If you would like to use this battery pack with this system, you must add the power port now when first assembled. The body cannot be modified afterwards. You may however, add the battery port now and purchase the battery pack at a later time.

The MINI B has been rigorously tested for US Military and DoD EMI compliance by an independent, Gov’t support facility, and qualified for conformance to MIL-STD-461G, RE102, RS101 and RS103. This means that MINI B has an extremely low electronic emission signature, making it nearly impossible to detect its use, even in close quarters. The MINI B was also shown to not be damaged nor suffer performance degradation when exposed to very high electrical field strengths, over a broad frequency range, as measures of electromagnetic susceptibility. These proven factors make the MINI B robust under the harshest of EMI conditions.

With our expansive capabilities and strategic partnerships, we are able to custom build any of our NVD manufactured products with Image Intensifiers from either Elbit Systems of America^®, Photonis^® or L3Harris^®. This includes green and white phosphor and thin or un-filmed image tubes. Night Vision Devices specializes in Gen 3 Night Vision technology and can also provide systems equipped with Gen 2 image intensifiers to meet individual customer requirements. We also offer Cerakote color customization for bulk orders. Like all NVD goggles, this system features a complete diopter focus of +2 to -6, and IR LED and a close focus of 9.8 inches (25 cm) and a 66 foot submersion capability.
