I’ve just made my own ghetto night vision scope. It’s not exactly pretty, but it works, and it cost me under $30. I’ve got a cheap infrared flashlight that I’ve attached to my scope, and a $10 infrared webcam looking down the scope. I can then monitor it all on my netbook.
It’s not portable at all, and it’s a bit clunky to get set up. But I’ve been happily sitting in my back yard the last few nights, with a card table for my laptop and beer, and scoping rats on the laptop using my homemade night vision. They have no idea what hit ‘em.

I’ve had rats, or mice (or both) in my ceiling all summer. I got so sick of it that I went and bought a Pest Xit Duo. I’ve had it for 2 weeks, and it’s finally starting to have an effect. A few nights ago I heard the rats going crazy, scratching around, squealing, and tearing at the walls – almost as if they couldn’t stand it anymore… and for the last couple of days I’ve heard absolutely nothing. It’s almost like somebody has flicked a switched and just turned off the noise in my ceiling. They’ve gone. It works.
The Maha/Powerex MM-C9000 is without a doubt, the best NiMH battery charger in the world. I’ve got AA cells that are three years old, and would charge with with my Swallow charger. The C9000 brought them back from the dead. If you’re a battery geek, then you’ll love this.

I just bought a Nikko Stirling Air King 2-7×32 scope. It’s fantastic, and unlike many other scopes, this one is built to withstand the recoil of a modern air rifle. There’s something about air rifles and Nikko Stirling scopes that ‘just works’. I like ‘em.

Last week I bought myself a sexy new Navman S100. It’s the cheapest model in the Navman S series, but since I’ve installed the wonderful (and free) MioPocket software, that hardly matters! I can watch videos on it, listen to MP3s, and even import Google satellite maps into it. Navman S100. Slim. Stunning. Fully loaded.
