ELCAN The Canadian ELCAN demonstrated a prototype ho- lographic sight – Specter HCO (Holographic Combat Optic), which has been revealed in a perfect moment, when the main competitor, EOTech, has been struggling with the consequences of bad publicity and the fuss concerning the crosshairs thermal shift in extreme tem- peratures. Specter HCO has a durable aluminum alloy body, eleven levels of brightness for the cross-hairs (including three night vision settings) and is powered by a CR123 battery that provides working time up to 1200 hours. The HCO seems to be reliable sight and the quality of the optics is very high. ACT IN BLACK Those prototype DTNVG night vision goggles has been designed as a li- ghtweight alternative for AN/PVS-15 style goggles and other similar devi- ces. The goggles are compact and lightwieght, but durable and powered by single CR123 or AA battery (with special adapter). Inside, there may be al- most any intensifiers mounts and apart from the complete device, DTNVG will be also offered as a conversion set for upgrading the currently used night vision goggles by „transplantation of organs", the intensifiers.
