Don't put that tiny finder scope back on that telescope. Buy one of these it sticks on with double sided foam tape, and works MUCH better to find objects in the night sky.
Binko, The IR luminator is on a different circuit. There could be a number of problem with your monocular. This NV devise is manufactured in Russia and sold Rigel Optics name. If I have my shop set up you could send to me, but I am retired and sold all of my electronic testing equipment. About all I can reccomend is call Rigel Optics and ask them what it would cost fix you monocular. If the cost is to prohibtive, buy you a new one. There are a few companies in the US that manufacture all of their components. stewbison
Hello, check the battery compartment for corrsion. Clean it up really well. Also, since it has been stored for a couple of years. Has it been miss treaded in handling in storage, bang around, anything like droping while it was in a storage box, etc... I hope this will help you, stewbison
Yes, Rigel Ops is a Russian company. It manufactured NV devises. How old is the binoculars? Has it been droped or abused? If it has been droped a few time, then the image tubes can't take that type of abuse. The image tubes go bad. I don't have my shop up and working. Maybe in the future I can start repairing these NV devises. GB...stewbison
Hello, it does work. It seems to be the problems with a lot of these Russian manufactured goggles, monoculars, binoculars and scopes. Sorry, almost impossible to get them repaired. GB...stewbison
Rigel are russian made. You will have to send it to the dealer you got them from. If it is not under warranty the repair cost will be high and you will be better served buying a new unit. If you choose to send them off and you didn't get them from an authorised dealer you may find one of the authorised retailers in your area will do it.....but for a price as they will most likey have to send it to Russia.
