The Ultra-Light PVS-14 (NVD-UL-14) is the WORLD’s LIGHTEST fully functional Night Vision Monocular and utilizes new MIL SPEC light weight optics and a revised battery housing which uses digital push button switches instead of the heavy analog switches. This combination of lighter weight components result in an unheard-of system weight of only 235 grams as compared to the standard AN/PVS-14 weight of 355 grams. The UL-14 is the only PVS-14 that is 100 percent manufactured with optics and components that are made in the USA! It is also covered by our best in the business warranty of (10) ten years.
