Description:
The Proton Lite is a fully mechanical, mission‑ready night vision platform built for users who value reliability above all else. Its housing is precision‑machined from 7075‑T6 aerospace aluminum, giving it exceptional strength and durability in harsh environments. Each optical pod is individually sealed and nitrogen‑purged, ensuring consistent performance in rain, humidity, rapid temperature changes, and demanding field conditions.
Designed around a modular architecture, the Proton Lite allows effortless configuration as either a monocular or binocular using the same pods. With minimalistic controls, independent flip‑activation, and complete user‑level serviceability using only a screwdriver, it eliminates unnecessary electronics and common failure points. The result is a rugged, adaptable, and field‑maintainable night vision system built for real‑world operations where simplicity and reliability matter most.

Image intensifier tubes:
Device is supplied with Exosens ECHO or 4G green and white phosphor image intensifier tube.
The Exosens ECHO technology is the commercial grade image intensifier tube by Exosens , offering two high performance grades to the commercial market for civilian users. ECHO image intensifier tubes serve many night vision applications for users that require good range and details at night and making them perfect for sport shooters, hunters, airsoft practioners and night vision enthusiasts. The ECHO14’s with UCD 14mm provide an image with a FOV of 36° compared to standard 40°.
The Exosens 4G Image Intensifier Tube (IIT) is a more affordable version than 4G+ while maintaining a high level of performance. 4G IIT provides operators high image quality and long detection ranges in the most challenging light conditions: brightness of equipment, longevity of intensifier tubes, ability to see farther in increasingly low levels of darkness and very fast auto-gating.
