Over the last 4 weeks and just today (a few minutes ago), another PM asking me if L3 Unfilmed tubes degrade after 500hrs or somehow more "fragile"?
It seems some folks are still spreading this vicious rumor without having the facts.. To reiterate I personally have had meetings with the chief engineers over at L3 who laugh at first and then get very frustrated with "some" who start this rumor and keep at it. On top of that, we have a cadre of former speical operation trainers here at TNVC and all running L3 Unfilmed tubes who have never experienced any degradation of ANY kind with many more hours past this magical 500hr degradation point. I personally run a 3000+ FOM CNVD/LR with a HALO UNDER 1.0, (.8 to be exact) and have banged away with my Rem 2010 .300WM with over 800rds with no tube damage, nor tube degradation of any type, nada. Same tube the entire SOCOM group uses in all their clip-ons with no widespread damage nor 500hr degradation. Bottom line, this 500hr rumor has no basis nor technical fact. Need to pin this on our web site and our industry page. It's unfortunate so many new users keep getting this false information. |

Maybe a history lesson on early filmless systems and their original life expectancy and the improvements after should be written up and stickied?

Unreal that this is still going on
The vendor(s) spreading this horse shit should be ashamed of themselves and IMO this kind of crap should make people seriously question their credibility. |

Holy shit, it’s a vendor saying this?

It is truly unbelievable that this rumor still exists. When the concept was in the R&D stage many years ago this was true, but the unfilmed tech of today shares very little with the original tech and is every bit as reliable/long lasting

I’ll be honest, I’ve heard and confronted folks were spreading this nonsense at SHOT shot a few times. I don’t know why they blatantly spread these lies. |

It was so good back in the day when ITT Omni 5 tubes would explode to leopard tubes in Raptors, the President of ITT at that time actually visited OSTI to witness their testing. It was some impressive times. Getting back to history, Edwin here posted in another thread showing his PVS-22 review he dug outta the archives. I actually forgot the 22 and 27 line were actually restriced back then for commerical sales. When it was little ol me and Teddy early on at TNVC, I remeber now basically begging Mike Matzco to talk with the OSTI owner to let me sell the 22 commercially. It took 6 months of some constant pleading to allow commerical market sales. The 27 though was off limits for several after, but with the success of the 22 sales, the 27 finally opened up! Thanks for bringing up the 27 stuff, good memories from back in the day. |

Originally Posted By TNVC_Sam: The guy a sure shot will to a thin filmed to filmless conversion in a -27 View Quote Yes, absolutely. I just know there were comments made about certain specs having a negative effect on applications with recoil. Wasn’t sure if people here were disagreeing with that sentiment or what. Obviously not on the subject of reduced performance after a certain number of hours, just on the clip-on topic. Here’s the quote I was thinking of: The lower the halo reading the more susceptible the tube is to recoil damage. Or any vibration damage for that matter really, even dropping it while it’s powered on. The ITT and L3 “WG” (weapon grade) tubes that I’ve seen are all higher halo tubes as well. Most of those being around 1.0-1.2 to be exact. The tube that came out of this 27 is a F9815 wg. I’m going to do a little estimate on the halo compared to other tubes when I get a chance. I have a couple Elbits with 1.0-1.1’s to test it beside. But yes, a .6 halo tube would make me nervous in a 27 for sure. https://www.snipershide.com/shooting/threads/what-tube-would-you-want-in-your-clip-on.7014678/#post-8695585 |

Getting back on topic...
During these unprecedented times we have seen more new users to NV than we've ever seen before. They seek education with valid and truthful information. This is key so they can get the most out of their hard earned dollar and not misinformation because of others who cannot get a certain tech for a better price or availability. This has been so wrong on many fronts for a long time and it continues. We thought after Shot Shot this year, with a few threads here this would squash the misinformation. Unfortunately, this hasn't stopped. Our web site WILL get updated with more tech info along with our Newsletter that goes out to 60-70 thousand out there. |

Also, do L3H UF tubes really have zero film as you said? As I understand it (based on my recall of @TNVC_Sam videos on you tube, search silent solutions) Halo (in a filmed tube) has to do with the distance between the film and the micro channel plate. The greater the distance the higher the halo. So it stands to reason that with a higher halo (within reason) on a filmed tube the less chance of the film hitting the MCP and becoming damaged. Sam can correct me if I’m wrong. |

Neither of those two companies were on my radar to buy from, and thankfully they never will be now. It’s well documented that early filmless tech had teething issues, but that was a very long time ago now. Apparently not for these clowns

Well I guess I gotta apologize for not including the quote and context in my first response - didn't expect it to set folks off. Was out in the woods NOT finding any shootable bucks on opening weekend... The reason I responded to the earlier poster was because of information others had posted regarding caution needing to be taken when selecting a tube for clip-on swaps. I was not intending to insinuate that all filmless tubes have issues when putting them in 27s. Poster said "and not worry about recoil damage" and I was hoping to caution that there was more to consider than just "L3H UF tubes are G2G, no prob" which seemed to be what they were reading from Vic's comments in the OP.
As a filmless owner myself, I'm certainly interested in any technical information regarding the tubes and special cautions that may need to be taken as related to recoil damage. Obviously swapping tubes in clip-ons is outside of the manufacturer's warranty constraints, but if folks like Sam are agreeing that low-halo tubes should be avoided for clip-ons (am I recalling a comment in this thread that was deleted? can't seem to find it now) it just makes me interested in what the extent of that fragility is. I'm assuming the issue is with ANY tube technology in a clip-on with a low halo, and maybe the newer L3H UFs are just the first ones to regularly achieve those values. But if there's something in particular about the L3H tubes, it seems like a relevant discussion to have. I certainly don't have the experience with seeing thousands of tube spec sheets go across my desk - are those sub-0.8 halos common in older non-UF tubes as well? The 15 sheets I have in front of me from my and friends tubes range from 0.64 to 0.88 with the vast majority sitting right at 0.7. Probably a rabbit-hole that is unnecessary to go down without actual test data to prove things, but when folks bring up a concern that could deadline a high-spec (high-$$) tube if used in the wrong application, it makes me perk up my ears. I only use these devices professionally in a photographic capacity, but local folks often have questions about the tech. When one seller is saying magnum rifles are G2G at 0.8 and another is expressing concern with smaller calibers pretty near that same value, I just hoped to get some technical clarification. My first response in the thread was not helpful in furthering that discussion - I apologize. On the subject of how tube specs stay the same or degrade over their service life, I'd looove to see more on that. There's test sets out there where you can toss your tubes on them and print a new spec sheet, right? Would be cool to look at some of those high-hour tubes that you said your trainers are using to compare their current specs to what the factory published. Don't think Chip would let you crack open his 31s though... |
|

There's no need to crack open any of our NODS period. We would see this so called tube degradation with our naked eyes very easily if this was true, which it's not but a ploy from the few to dispel the performance characteristics of the L3 Unfilmed tubes.
I also believe what the chief scientist and L3 engineers tell me, and no it's not a "pitch" for them to tell us untruths to sell more tubes. This is a farce on so many fronts, and it continues from the same players. |

Don't think Chip would let you crack open his 31s though... View Quote There do exist test sets that can *sort of* do that. However, generally the actual specs are based on what the inspector is able to measure using their eyes and the instruments on the test set. Resolution is still measured using a 1951 AF target. Halos are measured by projecting a pinprick of light into the tube and measuring the size of the halo on a specially calibrated reticle. Different users may discern variations in the perceived halo, which is due to differences in their eye sight and also their level of experience and discernment. SNR would generally be the spec that could decrease over time, but you could still measure a tube on two different test sets and get slightly different results based on the calibration of individual test sets. I'm not sure what L3 or Elbit use to test their tubes at the factory but I imagine they used some pretty special purpose equipment that's able to test the tubes without them being assembled into a goggle since they are measuring large quantities in a process/assembly line fashion. Whereas the best equipment that field technicians would use would be an ANV-126A or a NV-2500 test set, or similar. Both of which require a built goggle. You couldn't use a TS-3895A because it's an analog go/no-go test and only tells you whether a tube is within acceptable limits. |

Not to doubt the eyes of the staff at TNVC, but it just seemed like a more reliable path to pursue if trying to put whatever rumors there are over diminishing performance to bed. As a selfish consumer of L3H tubes I'm also hoping their engineers are being completely honest about this. It'd just be neat to see the data to back it up. |
