    and b1gtexx sound good im sold on it .. my older brother keeps asking me what i want for a graduation gift and the angel eye is what its looking like its gonna be. did you by happen to take a look at the andriod tablet i posted ?
    I really like the idea of the tablet as a DVR the only thing I wouldnt be sure about is if you could turn the screen off while it still records. That was one of the key features I wanted for my photon recording was to not have a backlight in the background from the screen if I didnt want. But when my Angel Eyes gives out I might have to give that a try. Have you read of anyone using it and being able to turn off the screen while recording?

          for those of you who may already have a anriod tablet i might of found a solution even if you dont have a (av-Input).. as long as you have a USB 2.0 the normal size usb flash drive input(not micro). then you can use this http://www.ebay.com/itm/USB-UVC-Andr...item233ee0ff4e

          video of how it works
          How to buy?http://www.febon.net/1. FEBON100 UVC USB AV grabber card user manual http://febon.blogspot.com/2012/02/1.html2. NEXUS 7 android 4.3 has embedded ...

          so now i can basically pick anysize andriod tablet with a 2.0 usb drive and it should work for (viewing only ) and use the Angel eye to record!. things just got easier

          or if your tablet has a Hdmi port .http://www.ebay.com/itm/Black-5-Feet...item2c8c505b25

            photon xt 4.6-(413$)gift
            the angel eye is around (59)$ -gift
            tablet i have yet to pick one out yet but could vary from 50-150? ish wont spend any more and then possibly a adapter cable for 5-50$
            around tops wont spend anymore could be cheaper the tablet will determine the overall price .. basically buying a tablet +usb/hdmi adapter depending on which route i decide to go +adjustable tripod stand -31$,12-tripod tablet mount. so like maybe $150?
            overall setup is under 600 thats the scope ,mini dvr, tablet+mount +tripod

              Do you realize that an excellent DVR with LCD already exists, in a small portable package, designed just for the Photon, for about $200? Maybe I am misunderstanding the objective you're aiming for.

                    I cannot speak for garby and txsd1211, but this is what happened to my buddy who tried to go the Optics Planet route. They took all his money, told him it would ship in 1 to 3 days, and the next day sent this email, and did not offer to refund the payment.

                      if you look at the angel eye its similar to the unv version the reason i want a tablet or screen is to have some one else the option of watching it on a bigger screen than 2.5"..
                      theres been another person who had a similar setup just was not a tablet .

                        Well I'll be calling tomorrow .. even if I have to wait a few weeks I'm still getting the scope for 413ish. There not just going to screw me out of my money .. there on Amazon,eBay I don't see many bad reviews . I think the factory is just backed up even with outdoor legacy there's a wait list..

                        Comment


                          Called optics planet they said mid-late jan .. also talked to a guy from nightvisionguys.com and he said it's a 45 day wait as well .like I said I think the factory is just backed up ..not that there screwing people around ya it looks bad if it says "in stock " But so did nvg.com.. I don't mind waiting to get it at the price I did .

                            Comment


                              called a few more places. they are all back ordered as well got this email from one "Hello, sorry they are on backorder from the manufacturer. Nobody has them in stock. I have 10 units on order so if you want one you will have to place the order and unfortunately wait. I hope to have them in a few weeks. Also no local pick ups, I have free shipping." so yeah like I said before the manufacturer is backed up ...
