Once again, I'm not sure if my posts are just THAT poorly worded, but I know the laser is Class 1 and I personally think that's fine. I'm commenting on how the illuminator is IIIR and unregulated.
The illuminator is what has me all hot and bothered. Being IIIR and unregulated has me confused, and although I'm sure it's 0m since it's available for public purchase, I'd like to know the NOHD for the illuminator on this thing.
The following pic is straight from TNVC and shows the illuminator at various distances (you can see more pics on their site: http://tnvc.com/shop/l3-insight-atpi...ass1-ir-laser/)
That's why I want to see it in person. I won't pass judgment until I can do a side by side comparison with my issued PEQ to see how the illuminator functions. It looks like it has a generous amount of spill, but a picture only tells a small part of the story.
I'll have my hands on it this December if it ships as scheduled. I'll be on leave, so it'll probably be January or February before I sit down and do any serious posts about these new ATPIAL-Cs. But I am very excited and will do my best to put a post together with my opinion about it as soon as possible.
Agreed. The pics look very promising, but the illuminator performance I'll have to see first-hand. Having used the issue PEQ-15 in afg, I found the ability to adjust the diameter of the illuminator to be key (granted - just my opinion). I'll be curious to see if it's in a 'sweet spot'.
it should function just like your issued PEQ at that focus setting. that means it will have the advantage of battery life vs the 300-600mW LEDs but be worse than useless for long range work.
