Intensifier Tubes

The heart of your night vision device 🫀

The housing, lenses, and batteries are just the shell. The real magic of night vision happens here. The Image Intensifier Tube (IIT) is the most critical and valuable component, capturing scarce photons and converting them into a crisp image. This category is for those building their own PVS-14, repairing a damaged unit, or upgrading from old "green" vision to modern black-and-white clarity.

We offer high-performance Gen 2+ and Gen 3 tubes from leading global manufacturers (Photonis, NNVT, Elbit, etc.). You choose the specs that fit your mission: phosphor color, sensitivity, and screen cleanliness.

✅ Key selection parameters:

• Phosphor: Classic Green Phosphor for eye comfort or the modern standard White Phosphor (WP) for superior contrast and object recognition.

• FOM (Figure of Merit): A combined metric of resolution and signal-to-noise ratio. Higher FOM means better performance.

• Form Factor: Standard formats (MX-10160, MX-11769) compatible with most housings.
• Protection: Auto-gating technology to maintain image quality and protect the tube during sudden light flashes.
