Absolutely. Despite what other websites claim, there are currently no laws against owning Night Vision devices in Australia.

However, there are laws against using Night Vision whilst hunting in most states, as they are classified as 'Spotlights'.

For Victorian residents, this means Night Vision cannot be used or possessed in Recognised Deer Habitat whilst in possession of a firearm. It is a punishable offence.

Nitrogen purging is an extremely important part of assembling and building any type of night vision device.

It allows the builder to test for leaks and vacuum seal the device, ensuring it is waterproof and leak-free.

Air is vacuumed out of the device, until the builder can ensure the device can hold a certain pressure, which then allows us to pump nitrogen gas into the device therefore preventing the goggles from forming any condensation or moisture on electronics, lenses or tubes.

It is recommended to have each device re-purged every 6-12 months.

For Navy customers, specifically divers, please note that as per US. MIL requirements it is imperative to purge devices every time before underwater usage for optimal performance.
