Hikmicro Neos is a powerful thermal riflescope with a sensitive core, long detection range and a host of advanced features designed for precise shooting where standard daytime optics are not enough.
The NH25L model, the mid-range version of the NEOS class, combines a 25 mm objective lens, a sensitive thermal core and a full set of features including a laser rangefinder and ballistic calculator.
Sensitive thermal core and 25 mm objective lens
The core of the riflescope is a thermal sensor with a resolution of 320 × 240 px, 12 μm pixel size and thermal sensitivity of NETD < 18 mK (the lower the value, the more sensitive it is). Thanks to this, it can clearly render even subtle temperature differences in the observed scene and helps to better distinguish the target from the surroundings.
The 25 mm F1.0 objective lens gives the NH25L model a detection range of up to 1200 m. The magnification range is 3.5-24.5x (using 8x digital zoom).
AMOLED display and colour modes
The resulting image is transmitted to a 0.49" 1920x1080px AMOLED display. The display is complemented by brightness and contrast adjustment and dioptre correction in the range from −4 D to +4 D.
You have 6 colour palettes available – Black Hot, White Hot, Red Hot, Fusion, Red Monochrome and Green Monochrome. At the same time you can also choose between 11 reticle types and several reticle colours. This allows the image to be adapted to the type of scene, surrounding contrast and observation style.
For zeroing, there are 5 profiles available. The Freeze Zeroing function freezes the image during zeroing, allowing more precise adjustment of the reticle position relative to the point of impact without disturbing movement in the live image.
Hikmicro image technologies
Image quality and smoothness are ensured by a combination of Image Pro 3.0, Zoom Pro, HSIS and Sync Pro. Image Pro 3.0 helps to enhance details in the thermal image, and Zoom Pro improves readability when using digital zoom.
The HSIS technology reduces disturbing image interruptions during calibration and helps to maintain a smooth thermal image. The Sync Pro function focuses on fast real-time image synchronisation so that the display corresponds as closely as possible to the observed scene.
Laser rangefinder and ballistic calculator
The integrated laser rangefinder measures distance in the range of 10 to 1000 m with ±1 m accuracy. It uses a Class 1 laser with a wavelength of 905 nm and supports fast distance measurement directly in the image.
The ballistic calculator is linked to the rangefinder – after measuring the target distance with the laser rangefinder and entering the required values (bullet ballistic coefficient, muzzle velocity and similar), the device displays the point of impact directly on the display.
Recording, memory and mobile app
The riflescope allows you to take photos, record video including sound and save recordings to the 64GB internal memory. The Recoil-activation Recording function activates recording when a shot is fired so that you can capture important moments without starting recording manually.
Via the built-in Wi-Fi hotspot, Hikmicro Neos can be connected to the HIKMICRO Sight app. The app is used to manage recordings, share content, adjust settings and also to correct the reticle.
Durable and lightweight design
The construction with a 30 mm tube is made from aluminium alloy with matte black anodising and has an IP67 protection rating. It operates in a temperature range from −30 °C to +55 °C and withstands recoil of 1000 g / 0.4 ms.
Power is provided by a combination of a built-in rechargeable Li-Ion battery and a replaceable rechargeable 18650 battery. The NH35L model offers up to 9 hours of runtime with Zoom Pro and LRF switched on. Power supply and data transfer are via a USB-C interface with QC3.0 support.
