My biggest complaints are the eye relief and focussing.. they need to improve some user friendly options such as the duty involved weaver rail mount that needs to be removed to charge unit. IR light could be focusable as well as the units focusability. 200 meters with clarity would be great. But for the price an all the options this pro can do is to be sure a great unit! Recommend !

Setting it up I see it only seems to work for left eye set up , wondering if one can get the arm bracket for right eye set up. Unless it’s the hielmut hinge quality preventing me from rotating coupler to accommodate right eye set up ? Thanks from a newbie

True night vision?
Ok so first off true night vision? No, will you get green eye using it? Also no, however a swivel mount is essential as you will get black eye, how long that takes depends on how high the brightness has been tuned. I'm hoping to purchase a few more battery packs, as the charge time is unclear, and battery life out of the box is likely not 8hrs, if charging for 5 hours(out the box) doesn't charge the battery to full. In complete darkness this device is extremely risky, and should not be used, stick to your PVS14s, however if a (IR or otherwise) illuminator can be used safely I highly recommend this device.
Rifle mounted this device performs admirably, in conjunction with a zeroed PEQ15 it can replace your day sight and will basically be a laser, however again the context is LUME, no lume you have to use your flood or another light source, generally speaking great device, however there are shortcomings, however this device is great fun, and I look forward to teaching about it this weekend. I think this is a great hunting tool, as long as it's paired with a IR laser and flood.
The key issue I'm having is mounting options and charge time, the mounting process to helmet isn't clear and I've sent an email, hope to hear from them soon.
I bought this for personal use, I bought it to product test and introduce it to other service members, and teach about this specific product at my unit, I am in the military, and I am in no way endorsed or affiliated with Sionyx.

I’ve had the aurora pro for about a year. This nvg is actually pretty amazing. Works well in low light, works well with illuminator, does a commendable job of trying to convert the dark into correct chromatic color. I gave it 4 stars because for this scope to make the leap it needs within the market it needs 2 things. First a digitally adjustable sight reticle as found on the ATN products. Second, the eye relief/focal point needs to be increased so that the eye doesn’t have to be so close to the display. This would allow for recoil with a black eye. SiOnyx has done a great job with this scope but these two features will greatly enhance the scope’s use ability for the hunting market.

They work as advertised
They work as advertised. It works way better with a IR illuminator. The Twilight mode is meh. All the mounts fit well. Having issues with using on rail with an optic. Can not get zeroed. All is good. Easier to use with IR laser. Would buy again.

The camera is awesome but feel for the money an eye piece should be included. Also should have info in the included directing you to the online directions since there are none in the package. I know this sounds petty but for that kind of $ you shouldn’t have to guess.
