single is the way to go. if cost is no problem, then you have a single eye for walking and working in the dark. in combat, you have a rifle mounted sight that you can aim with. if cost is a problem, then single eye nvg is cheaper than double.

There are pros and cons to both, and the situation and user's personal preferences (particularly those in regards to weight, situational awareness, depth perception, and etc) determine which one suits them better. This video did a good job delineating such differences:

Does anyone know the context of these images? Judging from the second image, it appears the soldier is wearing a vest that is not standard issue. Also, what's that pouch/bag looking thing on his left upper leg?
Looks like one of these batteries

That looks like a newly viral Chinese TikTok video about the new PLA mod for Battlefield 2. At least that's what the video was claiming. I don't play any of these games so I don't know if what they are saying is true.
