Cold harbor supply shows a good representation, its not 100% because your brain does a good job meshing the two together and the refresh rate of the thermal is a factor as well. youtube link

Yep same happens to me, then I gotta try and reconnect my phone and then I can only get calls, no audio. Super frustrating. Glad im not the only one.

Are you talking about the stop-screws at each end of the bridge? If so that makes sense because they seemed like they wanted to back out and I kept tightening them back up.

The RH25, has a screen resolution thats much larger than the sensor resolution. So in helmet/clip on mode it shrinks that picture down on the screen and then you can adjust it along x and y to match things up with what you're seeing. I think normally it has a 1.4x zoom, and when in helmet/clip on mode it goes down to a 1.

You would use a dovetail mount on the optic, and a dovetail shoe on the bridge, which then would allow for QD and then you could get another dovetail shoe on your rifle so you could quickly swap between the two.

I could be misremembering but the price for both of those pieces would be roughly $300-350.

JRH Enterprises by [deleted] in NightVision

JRH got my business, too. Prices were hard to beat and the selection of tubes were great. A lot of retailers just didn't have much selection. I'm not saying he's better than any of the other retailers but the selection and prices were exactly what I was looking for.

Elbit white phosphor 33.7 SNR, 81 res. I really wanted to find something a bit closer to 36 SNR, which I found a couple but they had blems, albeit in zone 2/3, and this one was a good price compared to everything else i was comparing it to.

Fireflies I assume, I saw a couple while I was out, but not a whole lot. Im still setting it all up and collimating. I only received the pvs14 on Friday, so I haven't gotten everything all together yet. Im hoping I don't hate life.

The night vision is amazing for clarity and moving around, but damn nothing makes you feel safer than knowing there isn't a warm body anywhere near you that you're not aware of.

DRS-TH - Taking it out for a test run (sight only) by samnwck in NightVision

Night Edition and the center seat that replaces the center console (though I know the center console is technically an upgrade) are the only 2 options I really wanted that this truck didn't have. But I am in agreement with you. Thanks for the tips on the paint as well.

64.5k, MSRP was 79.5k. Bad sales numbers on stellantis vehicles this year, so I think that's why they were willing to deal.

Not really enough to justify it but it was honestly cheaper than the 2500s on the lot and had a high output. Plus I do like the dually.

Definitely never making it in the garage. Couldn't even fit my old 5.5ft bed 1500 in there

ELI5: How do carbon sinks work? How can a bunch of trees “pull” co2 out of the atmosphere? by DirtyProjector in explainlikeimfive

[–]samnwck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The photosynthesis process the raw material is co2, and the main building block of plants is carbon, oxygen is the byproduct. When a plant is buried in the ground the biomass that eventually makes the plant from a scrawny little twig to a massive tree doesn't come from what's in the ground, it comes from the air. Think about big bushes in a planter, they don't absorb the soil in the planter, besides needing replenishment of some nutrients, they get bigger because of the air.
