FAQ
FAQ
What does MGC mean?
MGC is manual gain control. You turn the power switch to set the image brightness yourself.
Will it switch off when I raise my head?
No. It only switches off when you flip it fully up. A normal head movement stays below the switch-off angle.
How long does the battery last?
At least 15 hours on one AA battery, and at least 50 hours with an external battery pack at normal temperatures.
What does FOM mean?
Figure of merit is tube resolution multiplied by signal-to-noise ratio. A higher FOM gives a clearer image in low light.
