Bushnell Guardian Compact Night Vision
Thirteen state-of-the-art, compact designs that offer superior vision in the lowest light conditions. Setting the standard in light-gathering technology, each product features built-in infrared illuminators for enhanced images, even in the darkest shadows. This stellar night-piercing lineup is highlighted by the new Guardian, a fits-in-your-palm compact with a built-in focusing knob, a built-in infrared illuminator and a fanny pack. Bushnell Night Vision is ideal for camping, caving and observing wildlife under the veil of darkness. This technology is equally suited for patrolling warehouses and similar surveillance operations where no detectable ambient light exists. Bushnell Performance Optics' audio monocular model even features a boom microphone, headphone and recording port, so you'll see and hear exactly what you're looking at. Bushnell Night Vision is the ultimate in stealth, and that's a quality no flashlight can ever claim.

| User Reviews |  | VERY poor & advertising is not accurate
rating: 2
CAUTION: I am almost certain this review will apply to this model, though I recently bought (and returned) a similar model. Both are about the same price (I bought mine at Sam's Club). Mine is (was) a 1.5x24, this one is a 2.0x24, but otherwise the specs appear to be the same. And the shape and size are the same between the two models, just a different color scheme. The advertising on both says it can be used for surveillance, etc. Not so! If you merely wanted to observe for a while, or wait until the person did something specific or moved to a particular position before deciding what you do next, forget it - he's already aware of you because he can see your red light pointing directly at him. There may be infrared coming out the front, but there's also visible red light which, by definition, is not infrared (which lies between visible light and microwave frequencies).
The pictures on the packaging were deceptive at best, also. Focus is nowhere near as good as what's depicted in the advertising. And make SURE you read the instructions first about initial focus, or you'll never be able to figure out how to focus it.
I really wanted this to work, but was concerned about how good or poor a low-end night vision scope would be. I took it back the very next evening. I'll have to save up for a more expensive scope if I really want a good one that much - this model is not much more than an expensive toy. I wasn't expecting the quality of night vision equipment used by the military, but this was still unacceptable.
