Originally built around the second generation imaging tube, the introduction of the third generation imaging tube increased system performance to over 50% and tube life to over 300%. The 680-gram AN/PVS-7D (F5001) can be handheld, helmet-mounted, or head-mounted for hands-free operation. Key features include: quick release lever to allow one-handed removal/installation from helmet or head harness; automatically crop bright areas to preserve image intensity; “IR-on” indicator; and a low voltage indicator.

The PVS-7D runs on two AA batteries and powers the device for over 40 hours. For optimal performance, maximum durability and the best possible support, the AN/PVS-7D is the best choice for law enforcement, home security, outdoorsmen, boaters, campers, wildlife researchers or predator control.

Features include an infrared LED light (for use in complete darkness and to assist with map reading), an LED warning light (integrated into the device to remind the user that others are using the device). night vision device that can see infrared LEDs), a low battery warning light (built into the device), and has a high light cutout (will turn off the device if it is turned on in daylight conditions ).
