Night vision monocular mounted to a scope, any success?

[rolfyrolf]

Has anyone had success with a Bushnell Stealthview type monocular mounted behind a scope? I have a mount that attaches to the eyepiece of the scope and has a tripod mount. The stealthview also has the ilumminator far over to one side compared to others, so I wonder if it is enough to illuminate a reasonable depth and width of field? Perhaps the mount can set it up such that the illuminator is on top preventing to much interuption?

Not with the stealth view, no.

I've used my avenger in that kind of setup though:

And I just ordered 2 Armasight Sparks to try and build a more compact night setup with. (one is for sale in the EE)

I guess it would have to be a 1x scope not a 5x as it would not focus looking through a scope?!

No, but they to work better for a lower power scopes.

Not sure if the bushnell has an objective focus which helps getting the reticle in focus.

I meant the nightvision magnification has to be 1x not 5x like all the bushnell?

Never tried it with a magnified NV unit but I would guess 1x would work best.
