These are offered with a choice of swappable carrier options that screw into the brass tripod insert:
Tripod with extendable legs, can also be used as a handle.
Solid machined handle with a lanyard hole in it.
Suction mount to fit to roof or window of truck.
Lightforce/Deben remote handle adaptor.
The used 50mm SLR lens has a larger glass elements with broadband coatings that takes in slightly more light with a better quality image than the budget C mount lenses normally used for spotters: Hardly surprising because they originally cost about a weeks wages when they were made. They are also slightly less focus fussy with slightly better Depth of Focus.
They are powered by 2 18650 batteries - not supplied.
Most NV users will already have a spare small illuminator that can be fitted to it with a weaver based scope mount. That allows the illuminator to be shimmed or otherwise aimed high so the foreground is less likely to be washed out and the camera AGC can continue to see further rather than try to shutter out any excessive foreground light bloom.
The HD monitor has a brightness control, and has about 1 meter of cabling that allows it to be moved into a truck - or on the grass if laying up at a bait station.
Or just shift the monitor on the grass if laying up at a bait station:
The 5" HD monitor forms the lid of the box - this is how it is removed: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rNOhhMY1UsE
Additional 1 meter extension cables, or carriers can be supplied at £5 each.
The SLR lens will give a slightly better image quality than the budget C mount lens used for this video - note how aiming the illuminator high avoids washing out the foreground - which doesn't need much light - and allows the camera to operate with a smaller IR light source than usual - a humble 501b conversion torch was used.
