Minox NV mini II makes night vision pocketable

There’s certainly no shortage of portable night vision gear available for those that often find themselves out and about at night, but there’s few quite as pocketable as Minox’s new NV mini II scope, which (as you can see) is almost small enough to fit on your key ring. You’ll still get 2x magnification despite that diminutive size, however, and a built-in infrared illuminator for “perfect vision” even in complete darkness. Still no word on a price, but this one should be available from all your usual night vision retailers by the end of the month, if it’s not already.
