The Armasight Watchman IR Illuminator is a must-have for anyone in the field using night vision devices. Powered by VCSEL technology, the Watchman IR Illuminator helps positively ID targets and track prey beyond 500 yards. This device features three brightness settings to aid visibility when there is low to no ambient light available and can focus as low as 3 degrees and out to a 14-degree field of view.

The Watchman works great as a handheld unit, but when the mission dictates, you can mount it to your firearm or night vision device via the included 30mm ring. The push-button tail cap can be swapped out for the provided tape switch for more tactical applications. Constructed with aircraft-grade aluminum, the Watchman is shockproof with an IP67 waterproof rating, ensuring durability in harsh conditions.

Since IR illumination is invisible to the naked eye, a small red light located at the tail cap lights up when the unit is powered on. Plus, you won’t have to worry about battery replacements; the 18650 battery is rechargeable using the included charging cable.

Key Features

  • Three Output Levels: Choose between high, medium, and low brightness for various tactical needs.
  • Adjustable Field of View: Focus from 3 degrees up to a 14-degree field of view for enhanced visibility.
  • Red Light Power-on Indicator: Notifies you when the illuminator is active.
  • Weapon or Optic Mountable: Easily mounts using the included 30mm ring for versatile applications.
  • Rechargeable Battery: Comes with a 18650 rechargeable battery and charging cable for convenient recharging.

Super Bright

I have been struggling getting a good image while using a new digital scope. I tried another brands aftermarket IR and it was too bulky and didn't perform to my liking. I got the Watchman IR based on a friend's recommendation, what a game changer. Not only is it smaller and lighter than the other one I had. But it also is much brighter and provides a longer range for my digital scope.

Compact and Powerful

This IR light is one of the best I have used. I have used several from other companies, but this one is by far the best. Very bright and extremely long range well over 700 plus yards. Has 3 brightness settings and comes with a rechargeable battery. Great for using with Digital or Traditional night vision. Very small and compact for the level of brightness it produces.
