Excellent video. I also chose the Team Wendy EXFIL LTP bump in coyote brown with the 3.0 system. Very well made and comfortable to wear. The Boa works really well. While Ops-Core also makes an excellent bump for the money I feel that the Team Wendy is a better choice.

Excellent video man!!! Misleading with the cold weather title I almost missed it. So glad I didn’t. I have been wanting to run the ops core ear pro mount on my team Wendy when I bought one but didn’t want to buy Amp’s. Ordered my helmet today along with NV’s and all and so I’m setting up my ear pro to order and this just answered everything for me. Thanks!!!

@matg_5564 2 жыл бұрын

Great video very well thought out! The struggle is real with the cold lol I'm in MN and it gets pretty cold here as well. Not sure if this tip would help. But you can run some small zip ties through the hook holes on the RNVG so that they create a larger loop for a hooking point so the hooks that come with the team wendy will clip on them. But nothing wrong with the solution you came up with 👊🏼

@thejpalbano Жыл бұрын

Thanks for the video, one little thing I learned, is if you look in the bag that came with your RNVG, you should have gotten two small little key rings that attach to your RNBG that you used to connect with your hooks. You can also look online I found a set on Alibaba that might fit the bill.

Good stuff. I definitely want to upgrade my earpro and attachment points to them to what you have. Guess I'll be throwing more money into it lol but it's a good upgrade. Great video man, very informative and thorough, which I appreciate greatly. I'll using this video as a reference to do some upgrades, god bless brotha from old Carolina.

Great video, tossed you a sub - surprised your sub count is so low! Also I think it's indicative of how insanely expensive the night vision game is that a $380 helmet is considered a screaming steal of a deal lol. Not meant as a criticism - I have the same helmet and also consider it "affordable", but only because compared to my $4,500 mono, it seems like an afterthought.

@yzhou05 10 ай бұрын

Team Wendy sells their own balaclava, “EXF” I think it’s called? Works very well with their ballistic helmets. The top/head portion is very thin so it fits easily and provides a bit of warmth (not too much required for the ballistic helmets as they aren’t ventilated). Good length for neck coverage.

There's a thing on Amazon that is the same concept as the tarsier for the pvs14. You buy that and the screw on sacrificial lense to the end of it and it screws into the pvs14. Been running it a full year now with no issues. I highly recommend it. I'm not sure if I can post links here I can link what I bought on Amazon if not I'll post the key words.

How secure are the ops core arms in your experience? Some say they slide out of the mounting slots, others say they're ok. I'm looking at an Exfil SL with amp arms.

@7fprepped Жыл бұрын

The piece that holds the ear cup to the arm is like a ball joint. I have had these screws loosen, but I put some blue locktite on them and a year later they are still holding. Definitely something I check from time to time though. Hope this helps!🤙🏼

When are you going to show some of that night vision comp shooting footage (I am not sure how someone would do a first person view?). Maybe use a single night vision and record with one of those digital night visions, could be expensive.
