Rost, have you tried the newest illuminated stuff from Zeiss?
I was not a proponent, until I tried their newest incantation. I don't know much about it, but there seems to be more emphasis with some manufacturers like Zeiss and Leica for versions more dark friendly...or near enough.
Received back an email from S&B saying their Polar illumination dialed down far enough to be used with night vision gear.
Not that I have any application for it...:)
