Alright, let’s dive into the brand-new Nocpix Lumi H35R—a compact, lightweight thermal spotter that’s packing some seriously impressive tech. Whether you’re out tracking game, scanning the terrain, or just need a reliable thermal unit, this one’s built for the job.
What’s Under the Hood?
First off, the 640x512 sensor with a 12-micron pitch and sub-18mK thermal sensitivity means you’re getting a sharp, high-contrast image. It picks up even the smallest heat differences, making it great for spotting movement at a distance.
The 35mm lens with an f/0.9 aperture is a big deal. That wide aperture means better light collection, making it perfect for those low-light hunts. Field of view? 12.5° x 9.5°, giving you solid coverage while scanning.
Size & Handling
This thing is compact and lightweight—just 147mm long, 47mm wide, 74mm tall, and weighing in at 385g. That’s light enough to carry all night without fatigue. It’s designed to be handheld and ambidextrous, so whether you’re left- or right-handed, you’re good to go.
It’s also got a rotating eye shield (flips both ways) and a glare-reducing hood up front. The rubberized casing adds grip, so if it takes a tumble into the mud, no worries—it’ll hold up just fine.
Controls & Power
Everything’s well-placed and easy to use. The buttons sit right on top, so navigating the menu is straightforward. There’s even a thread adapter if you want to mount it on a tripod.
Power-wise, it runs on a standard 18650 flat-top battery, which is super convenient—just swap in a fresh one, and you’re back in action. Charging? USB-C port on the side. Simple.
Performance & Features
- Magnification: 2.5x optical, with digital zoom up to 20x.
- Eyepiece: 25mm eye relief, adjustable diopter, and a 10mm exit pupil—comfortable for glasses-wearers.
- Internal Display: 1024x768 pixels, giving you crisp, real-time visuals.
- Rangefinder: Built-in LRF, effective up to 800m, with meters/yards switching on the fly.
Color palettes? You’ve got options. White-hot, black-hot, and red-hot are the main ones—black-hot tends to be easier on the eyes, but red-hot can really make heat signatures pop.
In the Field
This thing is fast to power on—hold the button, and it’s up in seconds. The menu is super simple, so switching settings is quick.
It’s also IP67-rated, meaning it’s fully waterproof and dustproof. Temperature range? -20°C to +50°C, so whether you’re out in freezing conditions or a hot summer night, it won’t let you down.
The 32GB internal storage is handy for recording video (yes, with sound!) and snapping still images. Perfect if you want to review footage later.
Final Thoughts
The Nocpix Lumi H35R is an excellent all-around thermal spotter—lightweight, fast, and packed with high-end features. Whether you’re scanning fields, tracking movement, or just need a solid thermal unit for your kit, this one’s built to perform.
