Which nightvision googles for darkroom work?

What replaced it and about how much?

Their newer models are slightly telephoto so less useful for darkroom

ATN Viper was the best suited to the task, headgear is awkward. Focusing eyepiece and close focuses. Not telephoto (1:1). Don’t make them anymore but great for the job.

I have the Viper for use in the darkroom when needed but so far I have not had to use them very often. I agree with Bill that the headgear is awkward to use and probably the biggest reason I don't use it often in the darkroom. I took it out camping a couple of years ago and thought I would have a look around while we were getting ready for bed and looked across the towards the trees across from our site and saw a couple of eyes looking back at me from the dark. Last time I did that and I did not tell my wife.

Strange eyes in the darkroom would be pretty unnerving, but out in the outdoors, a great way to get a keeper shot.

Could a close-up set of filters be used on these tools or at least one lens?
