How to convert a L3 11769 tube into 10160 format

Do you sell the removable gain pig tail?

Excellent tutorial, when I built my unit I used Bloxygen for inert gas/purge and was good to go!

Can you just put an MX-10160 tube without gain control in a 14 housing? Im looking to build on and 10160 tubes are significantly cheaper and i dont care about not having manual gain control

How is the tube powered in the anvis 9?

Hello I'm new to the nv scene. Is it possible to slide the tube back into the pvs14 monocular to bridge 2 pvs14. The reason I ask i heard someone mention that they have to be 2 10160 to bridge them together. Thanks in advance.

For such a great job a light for us to see would be good, anyways thankyou.

Argon purge these things.

This is some ghetto shit

Is there any other steps that need to be done after they are assembled? Or once the tubes are in and the optics are set is it good to go?

Wow thank you so much this was the info I was looking for 🤘

I thought you needed to install reisister or something after removing the pig tail

Anyone have a good source for quality imagine intensifier tubes at by themselves at good prices? Looking to build my own dtnvs soon

Fun fact barrow Alaska is the best and worst place to own night vision

Thanks for the info

Why might someone want to do this modification..?

Wondering if Harris F9815M16G, from 2017 batch can be converted or no? What do you think? If no, the resister is located on the pigtail? Shall I use this resister to solder it instead of the pigtail connection?

A word of caution on the canned air:
canned air has a propellant inside, and that might leave the can when you spray. I’m not sure if tubes will be affected by it, but coming from the camera field, spraying the image sensor with canned air has sometimes resulted in completely blurry photos afterwards

Looking to drop my Pvs 14 tubes into a lighter dual housing and this video is well within my comfort zone. I’m reading about needing resistors installed in place of the pigtail. Is that something that’s necessary with 2019-2020 L3 filmless tubes?

Any video on disassembly or assembly of RNVG? Something in my housing is loose turning off my right tube.

I guess you couldn’t go on Amazon and buy some lamps?????trolls 🖕🏿

Can you add a pigtail to a 10160 tube? Or an itt 10160 tube?

I’ve read that 11769 tubes need a resister installed to work in 10160 housings is that trie? Or once it’s in a RNVG for instance, wit the pigtail relived you’re good to go? Using never L3 tubes. Thanks!

Do you know where to get the 10160 WP tubes?

where can you purchase small parts? I need to replace the tilt lever and adjustment knobs on the PAS bridge

If I sent you a build sheet would you be able to tell if it was a 11769 tube. My thing I don't want to loss purge on housing to check. It is in fact an L3 w/p 11769 tube and inspected in 2017. I don't know if that deals with manufacturing or what. Was going to go to a dual PVS14 setup but this seems like its more or less straight forward. Anyway you have a private messenger for questions, and obviously at my own risk I got it.

RNVGs use the same rear and forward lenses as pvs-14s right? Where are the best places to get RNVG housings?

Where did you find those small containers for the extra components?

Awesome video!

are these WP tubes?

I guess it’s time to spray paint the DTNVG’s now! 😍

Great video man!

But i have a question the pvs is manual gain, the anvis auto gain.

So does the anvis still autogain or is it just one powersetting?

Thx mate

I wish I knew about that lens removal tool.
I did fiddle around with watch opener tools and ended up making my own tools from blocks of steel.
