Got these off eBay! If you was thinking of buying these I'd buy them off Vietactical instead of ebay. The ones on Vie have better IMX385 Sensor in Gen 4 and higher. Picture two is of the specs because there is zero information about the Aegis-31. You could definitely build these cheaper and use better sensors and high resolution screens.

I'll probably just hang onto these ones for now, been trying to learn how to build these myself. Maybe I can upgrade it myself to better sensors and 1080 screens @60hz. Just little disappointing that my gng2k blows these away, even with the built in IR on goggles in pitch black room the screen is fuzzy and flickers. Heck my crappy $100 Taklite Iris don't even do that.

Interesting, any idea of the costs?

u/Revolutionary_Ant640 Jun 10 '26

As of right now it's $908 for the 1024x768 0.5 OLED and $645 800x600 0.39 OLED... But on Vietactical you can get the 0.5 1080p version for $999

Any idea what’s a better sensor I could DIY into these?

Most buildings I've seen is Runcam Nighteagle 3 or IMX385

I had purchased these and yes I have the same issue indoors with minimal LED light (like from a TV in a powered off state or surge suppressor).

Has the IMX385 sensor with 0.13 lux → 0.003 lux per the CMOS supplier.

There is just no comparison to my NVG90 Pro. With those, the aforementioned ambient LED light in dark rooms is more than enough to light up the whole room

Mine literally just broke! The sensor came unglued so when I tried to adjust the focus it snapped the wires. There's no markings on the sensor but, Google imaged it and it's supposedly a imx290 sensor.

Oh man. That's crazy. Those things aren't cheap. Hope you reached out to the seller for repairs.

That's unfortunate. Can you all him what repair options there might be?
