I've been waiting on some bits to arrive and I've managed to do a bit more to the build. First was to source a box to house everything in. Then I dismantled my CCTV illuminators and fitted them to the box, a dab of black silicone will waterproof it up later.. One of the colimators has...

Your quite right and I should have stated thus! Any meat product I dry has first been cooked. If it's come out a can its been cooked so I dry as is.

Thanks Tony, I normally end up with lots of money spent, parts that don't work and broken bits n bobs all over the place. This project is going ok so far and the only broken item is the camcorder I took to bits and the new scope with a nice dent in the end!!

So I've gone back to my Viper scope! Got it precariously balanced on the window sill along with the T20 torch... This is the view of a TV aerial at 64 yards on 10x mag and the torch on narrow beam, not the best thing to view but gives an idea... Edit: didn't have the contrast up so could have...

Hi, any cheap 12 volt 850nm CCTV illuminator will give a good flood out to 50 yards with this E700 camera. As for torch style illuminators I have a T20 38mm lens torch. This is good for flood and also narrow beam out to 100 yards or so. You can get these torches with 38, 50, 67mm lenses and the...

Tonight's testing saw me with a new scope that arrived from JSR this afternoon, a cheap SMK 4x32 compact that I thought would make a nice short rig. Turns out to get any sort of focus I had to use 4 coupler sections and the only lens that worked was the 16mm. It would have worked but was...

Thanks very much, anything that furthers the cause will be greatly appreciated.

Well the viewfinder from that Panasonic camcorder turned out not to work. The view screen lit up with 6volts to the red and black but with the video wire bodged to my E700 there was no picture to speak off, just interference squiggles so I reckon its kaput!

Funny but I ordered some red and green gells yesterday!!

Ta for the offer, I may take you up on that if I can't get mine to work! Actually im only using 12 ftlb Air so these ranges are a bit academic to say the least lol! It's nice to see tho how far these gadgets can reach if I ever get a rimmy etc... I may have to look at a 4 or 6 mag scope to...

Ta for the view finder advice, I'm waiting on some old Panasonic camera to take apart that I bid £9 for! Will look into your suggestion but I am wanting to keep things reasonably cheap. Yes on the IR front I already bought a T20 850nm torch, the 38mm one? I also have several really cheap cctv...

This is the view of that Chimney @ 120 yards taken at 17:40 tonight, not quite dark yet. 10 x scope no illumination.

I'm using an E700 camera and screen kit bought from Sure24.

A couple of years ago I got into a bit of night vision and bought a couple of Gen 1 tubed scopes. Anyway to cut a long story I found them to be a bit rubbish for the money even though they were just above entry level scopes but a couple hundred squid per unit is a lot of money. Any way I'm now...

Looks like a cut off CO2 caplet soldered into a Brass 20mm conduit bush! I would remove the female thread in the stove and solder or braize in a new metric piece, then making the Vap tube would be pretty simple.

Not sure? I have 2 x 2900 mAh batteries in series and the LED on full is pulling 2A @ 5.7 W @ 2.9 volts. At least an hour and a half I think, maybe more but my brain won't let me do the maths!!

It saws ok, not as great as a proper cross cut tho. Left just enough flat back for the striker. It was a shame the drill bit caught right at the last moment when I was doing the compas recess and split the wood, it superglued back ok tho! The ferro rod mod was just an M5 Brass nut and bolt...

Ok here are a couple of pretty poor pics in bad light of the guts before packing it all in the base. There is also a toggle switch to the left of the filler and the dimmer to the right. At 2 A it's very bright in the other pic it's on as low as it goes! Hope you like...
