About once every year or two I decide I am going to get my own NODs.
I start trying to see if prices have changed, if I am missing something new, what has changed in recs.
Then a shiny quarter or pony or something distracts me and I end up working on something else.
I spent a lot of time in NODS,
Before every single person had them.
Whether trying to focus one eye on a map and the other for distanced or maxing out 250cc of bike with ill fitting, elastic head piece foam fit PVS 5s,
Or the better mounted but single 7s.
I did not really like 7s.
In the helmet mounted era, most of my time with 50 50s.
I liked the quality of vision, the extra battery pack, etc.
I have more time in those than any other. but the cost of those and the less standardized parts and the fact the needed repair so often we went to 15s.
There are benefits to those but just as expensive or more so.
For those that have been through the same process, at what price point did you reach diminishing returns?
Did you just say, I'll settle for the 7s?
Another option?
