HIKMICRO launches Neos thermal scope

HIKMICRO has announced the Neos, a thermal rifle scope built specifically for air rifle and small-calibre rimfire use, available in three models priced from £849.99.

The NE25 (£849.99), NH25L (£999.99) and NH35L (£1,499.99) are constructed on the same 30mm tube chassis as the company’s Alpex 4K Lite digital day/night scope and are designed with pest control and short-range small game shooting in mind.

Sensor resolutions of 256x192px, 320x240px and 384x288px are available across the range, with sub-18mK NETD thermal sensitivity and 50Hz refresh rates. Detection distances are quoted at up to 1,800m. A laser rangefinder with a ballistic calculator is available as an option.

All three models share a 0.49-inch AMOLED display, HIKMICRO’s HSIS shutterless lag-free imaging technology, Image Pro 3.0 processing, Zoom Pro digital zoom and a one-second start-up time. Weight starts at 540g, with an overall length of 345mm – compact dimensions aimed squarely at the air rifle market, where balance and handling on lighter rifles are a practical consideration.

The Neos is distributed in the UK by Elite Optical and further details are available at hikmicrotech.com.
