So I picked up one of the Vectronix Plrf05's from the group buy here. The manual shows a night vision setting for using a pvs14 behind it. I decided to give it a try but on the night vision setting it was pretty well impossible to see the reticle in order to range something. Also when the range finder was used even fired up into the air not on a reflective target there is an extremely bright flash when viewed with a 14 behind the LRF (not sure if its the reticle flashing or the actual laser). The laser emitted from the range finder is not really very bright if viewed independently from a 14 so that leads me to think it may be the reticle.
(ETA: I just covered up the objective end on the LRF completely and the bright flash is still present when the pvs14 is placed behind the range finder which would indicate to me that the reticle is causing the problem.)
Is it unrealistic to think that it would be possible to use the 14 along with the plrf?
Has anyone tried to mount a pvs14 behind one of the vectronix laser range finders with any success?
Also on a side note I have been really impressed with the normal function of this LRF just not the night setting so far.
