UANVB Katana-M | Photonis 4G Green Phosphor (Refurbished)
Lead Time: 2 to 4 weeks
The Katana-M is Nocturn Industries' ultralight articulating night vision binocular, engineered with a focus on simplicity, durability, and weight reduction.
The housing is injection molded from a carbon fiber reinforced thermoplastic composite, providing greater tensile strength than conventional polymer materials.
Its articulating design allows each optical pod to rotate independently and automatically power off when stowed, enabling users to operate with one or both eyes.
The Katana-M is designed for intuitive operation with a tactile push-button power switch integrated into the battery cap, eliminating unnecessary complexity while ensuring reliable performance in demanding environments. Tool-free friction-lock interpupillary distance (IPD) adjustment with integrated IPD stops allows users to quickly achieve and maintain their preferred viewing position without additional tools.
Powered by a single onboard CR123A battery, the system provides approximately 20–25 hours of runtime. An integrated LEMO external power port enables the use of remote battery packs for significantly extended operating time. A low battery indicator inside the eyepiece keeps users informed during extended missions.
Built to exceed MIL-STD-810 standards, the Katana-M has been tested for exceptional durability, including resistance to repeated drops, water, dust, and harsh environmental conditions. The integrated dovetail mount offers secure helmet attachment while maintaining a low-profile stowed position.
- Weight: ranging from 413,5g (lightest config with RPO NVD-Next Gen and 3D lightweight eyepiece housing installed) to 536g (standard lens).
- Power: Takes 1x CR123A onboard (20 to 26+ hours of runtime) and includes an offboard 2-pin LEMO power port for external battery packs (60+ hours of runtime).
- Operation: Integrated tactile push-button power control
- Key Functions: Independent articulating pods with automatic pod shutoff, low battery indicator inside eyepiece, and tool-less/patented Friction Lock Inter-Pupillary Distance (IPD) adjustment.
