Once kids lose their fear of the dark, it seems they can’t get enough of playing out late at night, playing games like hide and seek or other such games. It must seem like a whole new world to discover to new eyes, and in reality it is. All kinds of critters venture out at night when the world is in darkness and do quirky (like tipping the garbage over !). However the main drawback of playing at night and in the dark is that the eyes aren’t up to it. We can’t see in the dark and this hampers any chances of playing at night time to any degree. Well now that could all be a thing of the past with the new Stealth goggles and binoculars.
Stealth goggles, referred to as version 1 and stealth binoculars, known as version 2 go by the name EyeClops Night Vision Infrared Stealth Goggles and are made by Jakks. They are aimed at kids 8 or more for playing at night time.

They use the same technology as the proper night vision gear you might expect the military to use – namely infrared frequency light to illuminate the night. This produces a fairly good picture of what is going on around you, in green or black and white images.
The goggles are referred to as stealth because there are two modes. The first mode is the stealth mode that allows totally covert operations. This means the goggles are totally undetectable - no visible light or sound whatsoever.
The other mode, described as the surveillance mode, allows a longer range of night vision (upwards of 50 feet), but may be noticed by other people as it gives off a red light. If you are under some dense scrub or bushes then this might be a big problem but it is not as stealthy or covert as the first mode.
Version 1 is a set of goggles which affix to the head with rubber straps. They can fit snuggly to the face ensuring comfort even when wearing them for a fairly long period of time. The goggles have a soft rubber front that molds to the shape of the persons face so that no light can escape out. There are also caps on the eyeholes so that you can flip them up or down based on if you want to use the infrared vision or your normal eyes. So this means you will never have to take off the goggles unless you desire to.
The binoculars allow more flexibility such that you can flick between infrared and normal vision just by dropping the binoculars, however, you have to use your hands to operate them which could be limiting for some people. This could steer people away from the binoculars if they want completely hands free night vision capabilities.
Both would make a great gift at Christmas, especially for boys, but do take care as they are not made for use when running around at night. If goggles don’t sound like you, then how about some eyeclops nightvision binoculars instead.
