Nighthunter 8x56mm Low-Light Binoculars

The Steiner Nighthunter 8x56mm Binoculars are built for hunters who demand more—more light, more clarity, and more time in the field. Purpose-built for low-light conditions, the Nighthunter delivers over 96% light transmission thanks to Steiner’s proprietary Diamond Night lens coating and oversized 56mm objective lenses. The result is exceptional brightness and contrast during the crucial moments at dawn, dusk, and into the night—when other optics tap out.

Featuring Steiner’s legendary Sports-Auto-Focus system, these binoculars eliminate the need to constantly refocus. Once dialed in to your individual vision, the image stays razor-sharp from 20 meters to infinity, allowing you to focus on the hunt, not your gear. The porro prism design enhances depth perception, helping you quickly identify gender, age, and trophy potential in seconds—even in the lowest light.

Durability is where Steiner shines. The Nighthunter is waterproof up to 5 meters, nitrogen-filled to prevent fogging, and built with rugged NBR rubber armoring to withstand the harshest field conditions. Contoured ErgoFlex eyecups block out peripheral light and glare, ensuring a crystal-clear image and comfortable glassing at all times. A thoughtful touch—the Steiner LumiClip—adds a soft glow to help you locate your binoculars in the dark without revealing your position.

With a wide 135-meter field of view, 7.0mm exit pupil, and a generous 30-year warranty, the Steiner Nighthunter 8x56 offers serious hunters an unmatched edge when it matters most. In the shadows and on the edge of light, this binocular gives you the unfair advantage—earned through decades of innovation.

CONTOURED EYE CUPS

Holding your binoculars in a way to block the sun with your hands can be awkward. Peripheral light while using binoculars can impair your vision no matter the time of day. Steiner’s patented eyecups allow you to take advantage of the Nighthunter’s amazing optical technology and always see the clearest image possible.

RUGGEDNESS, PRECISION & PERFORMANCE

Steiner’s always function when you need them. No worries when it comes to durability. With more than half a century of battle-proven reliability, there is no better rugged-built optics that perform like a Steiner.

STEINER LUMICLIP

When you can hear your prey but can’t see it, you must be as quiet as a field mouse. Don’t stumble in the dark groping for your binoculars, creating noise that will send game running. Steiner’s new LumiClip is simple yet innovative. The luminescent clip glows with just enough light to easily locate your binoculars in the darkest night.

MAXIMUM (96 %+) LIGHT TRANSMISSION

Success in hunting is about the odds. The longer you can hunt, the better your odds of success. Extend your hunt every night. One more chance–one more look–one more shot. Steiner’s advanced technology penetrates the shadows with incredibly bright images — See what other hunters are missing.

SPORTS-AUTO-FOCUS

No need to fumble in the night chasing focus. To view objects in low light, there is no better system. Focus each eyepiece to your vision once, and then count on razor-sharp images from 20 meters to infinity. Clearly can determine your trophy of a lifetime, no matter the darkness — Perfect focus all the time.

CLARITY IN THE NIGHT

Male or female? Trophy or not? Without a pair of Nighthunters, you may never know — The porro prism design produces three-dimensional depth perception to quickly locate and evaluate your target. Add to this Steiner’s proprietary Diamond Night lens coating formula, and you have superior clarity and contrast at dusk and dawn, giving extra minutes of prime hunting time.

WIDE FIELD OF VIEW

The more you can see, the better a hunter you can be. See every animal in the field and let Nothing Escape You with a huge 135-meter field of view.

Customer photo review of Forax Gas Powered Mulcher | Model GP40 | 40" Cutting Width | 14-15 HP | For Tractors

Seems to be in order delivery wasn't able to use lift gate but tractor was able to take pallet off the truck bed. No damage to machine after visual check. won't know how it runs until rain stops. Staff at RippingitOutdoors was very quick to call and double check the type of backet needed for the unit to ensure the online order matched( to fit my skid steer quick attachment on my l2501 Kubota). Explained the teeth & belt could be ordered through them directly over the phone when/if needed as well as selling other types of custom made brackets for Utv's ect. All around Great customer service and would purchase from again.

Customer photo review of Ferntree Mini Excavator Forestry Mulcher | Model FF-L Series | 22"-30" Cutting Width | Machine Size 2.5- 6 Ton | For Mini Excavator

easy buying process and great communication. Mulcher works great, easily clears overgrown brush and even mulched a 5" thick mulberry tree fairly easily. running it off of my old 331 bobcat with no problem powering the drum at all. Only small issue which isn't a big deal is that the supplied hoses are about 16" too short to operate a full range of motion.

Ferntree Mini Excavator Forestry Mulcher | Model FF-L Series | 22"-30" Cutting Width | Machine Size 2.5- 6 Ton | For Mini Excavator

Over all built well. I like it is all cast iron and metal and not plastic. Had to modify fertilizer disc mount to fit correctly, nothing major, a little grinding. I modified the center link hitch point to accommodate my John Deere quick hitch. Have yet to plant with it but I’m sure it will work perfect. Love the grease fittings everywhere. Reminds me of the old farm equipment I grew up on, and still use periodically.

My firminator RT was delivered in good condition in ND. I will be using it next week. I have a 45 HP John Deere tractor that is supposed to lift 2000 lb but really struggles to lift this 6 foot firminator RT. I will just have to use in as a two pass operation for now. I do wish there was a better operating manual for this unit. Maybe that is something you can work on. I will give you an update once I start using it in a few days.

Put this on Kubota 900 with winch hookup. This thing is a beast (within reason). I named it ‘Homie”, cause Homie don’t play. It will take care of stuff up to about 2” in diameter. You still have to remember that this is NOT like the ones on a bobcat or larger machinery. It does have its limits. But all in all I am very satisfied with it. Now on to the good part! The staff at Ripping It are outstanding! Especially Kayla in the office. She has gone above and beyond on making sure everything went right, from ordering to questions about installation. This young lady would be of great value at ANY company ! Her knowledge and personality are like over the top. This is my first experience with Ripping It Outdoors and I can only say positive things about them. With all that being said, I do fill out reviews on things I buy, AND I give a honest review. If it’s bad then you will know it. But if it’s good, well I tell the truth ! Again Kayla, from the bottom of my heart, a great big THANK YOU for all your help and just talking to you. I feel like we’ve know each other for years!

TENT is easy to put up , material is tuff as told....only complaint is that i wish the bottom had about 3 to 4 inches overlap towards the inside so i could install a 2 x4 or something to help hold the tent down in high winds we have here in virginia thanks

Hi, my name is Ken. I’ve had a great experience with Ripping It Outdoors. I purchased a Forax Hp40 Mulcher for my mini excavator. Kayla Patterson is who I dealt with from the beginning until I received it at my house. She has been wonderful to work with and looking forward to working with her with any other orders I purchase. Kayla answered any questions I had and kept me updated throughout the whole process, can’t say it enough just a wonderful person to work with!!

Forax Ultralight Mulcher | Model HP40 | Cutting Width 40" | Carrier 2-4-Ton | For Excavators

These are great feeders if you don’t have any feral hogs but if the hogs tear off the wiring harness from the timer to the feeder motor, you’re disabled. Then, if you ask for help from Outback, they refer you to the dealer but really you’re on your own for parts and repairs. I have three Outback feeders that work as designed. They’re 13 years old and have always served well but this feeder misses the mark by a very high margin. I’d NEVER buy this product again. Feeders need to be dependable and this unit is not.
