Night Vision Goggles Small
Difficulty seeing street signs and distant store marquees. Night vision goggles?
I am having a little trouble seeing street signs and distant stores marquees at night. (I am living in a new area and don't know my way around). I am wondering if a small night vision monocular would help me see the signs, or does it making reading more difficult? Should I get a simple magnifying monocular instead?
Most consumer NV devices don't offer much magnification (2-3x) and since they are usually Generation I, the resolution isn't all that clear, either.
You'd be better served with glasses or a standard pair of good binoculars/field glasses. The other problem with NVG in urban areas is that you can fry them and your eyes (temporarily) if you look at a bright light source, like a lighted sign, streetlight, etc. Newer, higher Gen models have circuitry to protect from this, but they run $500-1000.
They are just not practical for what you're looking for, but a good Ophthalmologist may have an idea or two if you have trouble seeing at night.
