The Best IR Laser Illuminator for Digital & Military Night Vision
IR Lasers can only be viewed through Image Intensifier Night Vision technology and are invisible to the naked eye. Because of this, and the high power in which they operate, IR lasers can cause significant damage to eyes if exposed. Night vision goggles work by collecting what little amount of light is available and amplifying it so that it can be discerned by the naked eye. Infrared is a new technology employed with night vision goggles. … Since infrared goggles do not rely on ambient light, they do not suffer from the same problem.
850NM Airsoft IR Laser Illuminator
Most of the true Day/Night cameras with removable IR cut filter have great sensitivity to 850nm wavelength, that’s why they are so widely used for IR illumination. it works awesome under military Gen 3 Green phosphorus NOD.
The main advantage of the 980nm wavelength is that it is completely invisible. To take advantage of photonis OOB capabilities as in the airsoft field there are a lot of people with gen 3 NODs
SomoGear tested 980NM NGAL IR illuminator with below various night vision goggles.
under Sionyx—————it works well
under Bnvd white 1431 photonis echo tubes————–it works well
under Gen 3 White phosphorus NOD——————-it works well
under Gen 3 Green phosphorus NOD – ————— can’t see the IR laser dot

SomoGear NGAL/ PEQ-15 IR Illuminator Effective use with NV devices of all types. The most powerful Pulsar IR illuminator. The IR laser diodes are expensive just by themselves, let alone the engineering required to make a functional laser system, and there are 2 in a PEQ-15, NGAL. An LED IR flashlight is a diode in a housing. SomoGear try to reduce production costs, make it affordable for airsofters.
The IR illuminator should be at least 12 feet off the ground. Objects too close to the illuminator can cause reflections, so the illuminator should always be at least 12 feet off the ground to avoid reflections from airsoft player/ vehicles you are trying to detect.
SomoGear offers a civilian airsoft version of the U.S. Army’s AN/PEQ-15 multi-function laser device to kit out your AR for low-light shooting, In order to make this civilian legal the emitted laser outputs have been lowered from class IIIb down to Class1/3R making it safe for the general public. The integration of co-aligned Vis and IR aiming lasers combined with an adjustable/focusable IR illuminator, SomoGear set the new standard in the airsoft industry.
