Hello and Happy New year to All :wave:
About this time last year I started on my nv journey.
Inspired by you tube vids from people like snypercat. And the Rattingchat.
Amred with a stoger s20s .177 a lazer iluminator and a camcorder taped to a hawk site I was Away.
And well and truly Addicted. . . . There have being many dead ends and wrong turns on this journey.
In my quest for greater light and sight and am still making mistakes. Where am I now..?.
I am now with a s200 mk3 .177 a T20 torch with a self machined crelant 66mm collimator a battery pack a ma machined aluminium block bar dove tailed top and bottom with an 8mm centre bore hole .
And a broken 5" Hd screen.. oh and an ej230 camera . It's my plan to mount all except the battery
Onto the aluminium rail then plumb all the cables into the 8mm bore and solder All the cables. My idea
Like so many other people is to have an easily remove able night day settup. In a self contained neat settup. I was looking to mount my battery pack behind my screen . Or maybe mount them together in a bespoke enclosure. . But looking at this option I managed some how to break my screen. Now ordinarily I can handle the occasional set back but I am not back at work till the 16th of Jan.. ( shift worker) + a few days holiday. .my Ej230 came for Christmas and now my play time has come to a very frustrating end... I have ordered a new 5"hd screen but delivery is at best 7 long days.?!#?!!? . ..
I plan to post some pictures of my build.
I would like to say a big thank you this forum and the people who share there knowledge on here.
With out them I would still be stumbling in the dark. .

Not me. This is the first I knew about it. That bloody Geoff just dishes them out to anyone. Morning Declan :lol:

Ali Bongo must be turning in his grave (if he's dead, that is).
