I took Night Vision on my character in our occult WWII game, and have gradually bought it up to maximum. It's immensely useful in that setting, where lots of stuff happens at night, but there are no widespread night-vision devices.

It's especially valuable on an infiltrator or other stealth specialist, where carrying lights is a dead giveaway. The actions of Chase Taylor, one of the PCs in Icelander's Jade Serenity write-ups, give a good idea of the ways to use it.
