Tremo 138 Posted November 29, 2016 Report Share Posted November 29, 2016 The doubler can only be used on the older x6.5 models mate. The newer models have an anti-tamper ring glued into the thread to stop the insertion of the doubler. What model do you have? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tremo 138 Posted November 29, 2016 Report Share Posted November 29, 2016 Here is an example - https://www.cameraking.co.uk/yukon-nvrs-2-5x50-doubler/ Expect to pay £70 - £ for a new one. You do see them on eBay from time to time as well. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Cheers mate, mines is only couple of months old, so yes it won't be a screw on. Any other options? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Cheers mate, mines is only couple of months old, so yes it won't be a screw on. Any other options? Not really I'm afraid. There is always the "XTreme" conversion that I have carried out (Photon lens replaced by a camera lens)? I would only go this route though if you find that the x6.5 magnification is really not enough for your requirements. My converted Photon give me roughly x12 magnification, but the FOV is narrowed as a result. Also, finding a good camera lens is not that easy. Have a look on the NV Forum UK. There are loads of threads there on this subject. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
