Compatibility
The manufacturer states that the tube fits all versions of the AGM PVS-7 goggles, e.g. AGM PVS-7 NL1. According to AGM, 10130 series tubes are also used in other devices available on the civilian market, such as the FoxBat-LE or Comanche 22. The tube does not fit PVS-14 monoculars – for those, the manufacturer provides 11769 type tubes with an inverter. Replacement is necessary when the previous tube has been damaged or worn out, or when assembling goggles from an SKD housing without a tube.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does the MX-10130 tube fit the PVS-14?
No. The manufacturer designates it for PVS-7 goggles. For the PVS-14, AGM offers 11769 type tubes, e.g. MX-11769 NL1.
How do the NL1, NL2, and NW1 classes differ?
According to AGM, Gen 2 tube classes differ mainly in resolution and image cosmetics. NL designations refer to tubes with green P43 phosphor, and NW – to those with white P45 phosphor.
Can I install the tube myself?
Installing the tube requires experience, so it is worth entrusting it to a service center or someone who has already assembled night vision goggles. We recommend contacting us before purchase regarding the selection of the tube for your device.
