The AB Night Vision RVM-14 monocular housing is a ruggedized night vision monocular billet machined from 7075 aircraft grade aluminum and designed to handle challenging real-world environments. AB Night Vision is well known for making extremely rugged and proven housings such as the RNVG / RNVG-A and this new offering follows suit as an extremely rugged housing. Unlike prior housings, the RVM-14 does not use the legacy battery compartment which is made of plastic. The entire RVM-14 is 7075 aluminum!
The housing design accepts standard mil-spec PVS-14 lenses, or lightweight RPO lenses. The monocular features a side mounting area to accept PVS-14 accessories and mounts with a standard ¼-20 thread. The RVM is compatible with PVS-14 j-arms.
Two RVM-14 monoculars can also be attached to the AB Night Vision bridge mount (RVM-14 Bridge available separately) and are compatible with other popular dual PVS-14 bridge mounts in order to be used in a binocular configuration.

The monocular design features a rotary switch that doubles as gain adjustment. The switch initially turns the tube on at full brightness, then dims the MX-11769 image intensifier tube as the knob is rotated further. The unit includes an onboard infrared illuminator activated by a push button switch on the front of the unit. The button is surrounded by a protective fence to prevent accidental activation. Indicators on the edge of the viewing area show if the IR LED is actively on, or if the unit detects a low battery. The weight of the unit with standard mil-spec lenses and a CR123 battery is 300 grams. The approximate battery life at room temperature is 75 hours. The RVM-14 weighs 15% less than a typical single AA PVS-14 with a 50% longer battery life and has a much tougher housing.
The monocular is available in Flat Black and Flat Dark Earth. The components of the monocular are media blasted to give a nonreflective matte finish, then black anodized for durability. For the FDE option, Cerakote, a proven firearms finish, is applied over the
anodizing to give a tough, attractive finish.
Available with L3Harris Unfilmed White Phosphor
