hoW night vision WoRKs
Bushnell night vision models with analog (“Gen 1”) technology collect and amplify existing light through
the objective lens, which is then focused on the image intensifier. Inside the intensifier, a photocathode is
“excited” by the light and converts the photon energy into electrons. These electrons accelerate across an
electrostatic field inside the intensifier and strike a phosphor screen (like a green monochrome TV screen)
which emits an image that you can see. It is the acceleration of electrons, which provides gain and enhances
the image. Your Equinox Night Vision model is categorized as a “Generation 1” type of night vision unit, and
is ideal for a variety of applications and recreational uses including: hunting, camping, boating/fishing,
caving, paintball, stargazing, rescue/recovery, security surveillance and law enforcement.
