Hello, there could be a number of problems but 90% of the problems with these Russian manufactured monoculars, binoculars, scopes is the the image intensifier tube. First they are cheaply made, they don't taken much abuse, and if any bright light such as, street lights, car lights, turn on the NV monoculars during the day light hours could and would total damage these Russian manufactured tubes.
I hate to tell you but there is a good possibility that the image intensifier tube is bad, sorry. Night Owl Optic and many other US companies use cheap Russian manufactured night vision devise to sell; of course, they make a huge profit on these NV devises.
There are a lot of countries in the world that manufacture NV monoculars and other NV devises. Some are good and most are just slap together.
If you want a good night vision monocular be prepared to pay top $$$ for them. Made in the USA, Europe, England, and even in China.
List it on eBay as Night Vision Monocular and under condition: broken for parts. I wish you luck. GB...stewbison
