The PVS-31s are the ultimate in binocular night vision goggles. They are made by L3 Technologies and the price tag is not for the faint of heart. Just ask fellow writer Richard L. he has a set. PVS-31 cost around $10k. Well in the world of night vision users, specifically airsoft night vision users there have been some really clever individuals using a dummy set of night vision and converting them into functional dummy PVS-31. Typical binocular night vision like ANVIS6/9, Sentinels, and RNVGs are not articulated. The PVS-15 is but has a limited range for the monocular pods. The DTNVG and PVS-31 have a full range of motion and the monocular pods have magnetic switches that shut power to the tubes when they are folded open or the unit is folded up against the helmet. With the dummy PVS-31 as a starting point, you have the articulation due to the bridge design.
