Nocpix MICRO 2 Ultra 1280 Multi-Function Thermal

The Nocpix MICRO 2 ULTRA is a next-generation 4-in-1 thermal platform that works as a helmet-mounted monocular, clip-on, handheld scanner, or dedicated sight. It is the smallest 1280 thermal optic on the market and the first 1280 helmet-mounted thermal monocular. Its 1280 × 960 sensor captures 4× the pixels of its predecessor, the RH25 V2's 640 × 480 sensor. The MICRO 2 more than doubles the RH25 V2's display, jumping from 1440 × 1080 to a razor-sharp 2560 × 2560 (nearly 4.7× the pixels), delivering a sharper, more detailed image that holds up at higher digital zoom and makes it easier to pick out fine thermal detail. The 34.2° × 25.9° ultra-wide field of view is roughly double the 17.5° × 13.1° typical of helmet-mounted thermals and comes close to the roughly 40° of a PVS-14, which makes it a strong fit for thermal binocular and dual-band builds. FastEngine low-latency architecture keeps latency over 100% lower than conventional 1280 thermal systems, and a 60 Hz refresh rate keeps the image smooth during movement. In clip-on mode it supports day optics up to 10× (up from 6× on the RH25 V2), with a reworked zeroing process and UI. Dual-Link pairs two units into a single binocular system controlled from one master unit, while NV Highlight and NV Outline modes simplify the thermal image for cleaner fusion with night vision in dual-band setups. Standalone use adds Picture-in-Picture, which keeps the full field of view live while opening a magnified window around the target and reticle. Across all modes, you get a simplified UI, 1080p recording, 64GB of onboard storage, cold-weather batteries rated to -40°F, and IP67 water and dust resistance. Optional accessories for helmet mounted and clip-on use include the MICRO PICTAIL V2, MQD, and FLIP TO SIDE Resolution: The industry-first 1280 × 960 thermal sensor captures 4× the pixels of the RH25 V2's 640 × 480 sensor, and the 2560 × 2560 circular AMOLED display delivers the resolution to put that extra data to use. Field of View: The 34.2° × 25.9° ultra-wide FOV is roughly double the width and height of the 17.5° × 13.1° typical of helmet-mounted thermals and closes in on the roughly 40° of a PVS-14, covering more terrain per glance with less head movement. Enhanced clip-on support: Clip-on mode now supports day optics from 1 to 10× (up from 6×), thanks to the 1.03-inch AMOLED display. Clip-on zeroing: Three independent zeroing profiles with numerical zero values let you save distinct zeros across platforms or day-optic setups without re-zeroing. Clip-on UI: Menus, battery status, and HUD indicators are repositioned to the center of the screen so that they stay visible as day optic magnification climbs. Dual-Link: Two ULTRAs can be paired into one thermal binocular system with menu, palette, image settings, and zoom controlled from a single master unit. Optimized for dual-band: Dedicated NV modes strip out low-temperature ambient clutter so thermal and night vision fuse more easily, and outline mode reduces heat sources to clean outlines that give location and shape while night vision carries the environmental picture. Shutter: A 0.1-second seamless shutter cuts motion artifacts and interruptions. Magnification: 1× base magnification with up to 8× digital zoom gives a wide native picture for search, then lets you close in on a heat signature, with smoothed zoom transitions for a more natural feel. Wireless remote: The included remote controls recording, brightness, and menus, with a scroll wheel for digital magnification and menu navigation without taking your hands off the gun or tripod. Power management: True Sleep drops the unit into an ultra-low-power state during downtime, flip-to-standby powers it down the moment it's flipped out of position, and Power-Saving Mode stretches runtime to 6 hours on a single 18650 battery. Sight controls: Customizable reticles, app-based zeroing, and adjustable reticle brightness provide the controls expected from a modern thermal optic. Recording output: Recorded video resolution increases from 768×576 on the RH25 V2 to 1280×960 on the Ultra, roughly 2.8× the pixels, for noticeably sharper footage. Mounting: Ships with a 1.93 centerline recoil mitigating QD mount.

Four Ways to Use It. The MICRO 2 ULTRA combines proven RH25 platform design with meaningful upgrades in thermal sensitivity, latency, battery life, display resolution, clip-on magnification, and overall usability. From helmet-mounted thermal observation and handheld scanning to clip-on configurations and standalone thermal applications, the MICRO 2 ULTRA delivers a compact, adaptable thermal imaging solution built for demanding low-light and outdoor environments. PAYPAL IS NOT ACCEPTED FOR THESE DEVICES The MICRO 2 ULTRA is a next-generation thermal platform built for the demanding user who won’t compromise on capability. It fuses an industry-first 1280 × 960 thermal sensor, an ultra-wide field of view, a high-resolution AMOLED display, and true low-latency performance into a single four-in-one system: helmet-mounted thermal monocular, handheld scanner, clip-on, or dedicated optic. It's the smallest 1280 4-in-1 thermal optic on the market, and the first 1280 helmet-mounted thermal monocular. Whether you're running low-light training, scouting terrain, hunting predators after dark, or building out a serious preparedness loadout, the ULTRA delivers uncompromised thermal performance without the bulk of a dedicated single-purpose unit. HELMET-MOUNTED THERMAL: TWO WAYS TO OWN THE NIGHT The ULTRA was engineered to be the most capable helmet-mounted thermal monocular on the market. Its 34.2° × 25.9° field of view closes the gap with the roughly 40° FOV of a PVS-14, putting it in a class of its own for dedicated thermal binocular builds and dual-band thermal/NV configurations. Most helmet-mounted thermal monoculars top out around 17.5° × 13.1°, roughly half the width and half the height of the ULTRA's field of view. That narrow window creates a tunnel-vision effect that feels disconnected from the wider picture night vision delivers. The ULTRA closes that gap. Its 34.2° × 25.9° FOV covers substantially more terrain per glance, cutting down on the head movement needed to scan a sector and making the thermal picture feel natural under a helmet mount. The result: a monocular built for movement. Working a perimeter, navigating terrain, scanning a treeline, or working a stand. With 1× base magnification and up to 8× digital zoom, the ULTRA gives you a wide native picture for search and detection, then lets you push in on a heat signature the moment it matters. DUAL THERMAL: TWO ULTRAS, ONE SYSTEM For the tactical-minded building the ultimate thermal binocular setup, Dual-Link pairs two MICRO 2 ULTRAs into a single unified system. One ULTRA becomes master controller, giving you command of both units from one interface: menu, color palette, image settings, digital zoom, and every core function, controlled from a single point rather than running two units independently. The payoff is a true binocular thermal system: 1280 × 960 resolution, 34.2° × 25.9° FOV, 1× base magnification, 60 Hz refresh, and low-latency architecture, across both eyes. For hunters covering large properties, tracking game through heavy cover, or anyone building a top-tier night observation rig, dual ULTRAs deliver a level of thermal awareness a single monocular can't touch. DUAL-BAND: THERMAL + NIGHT VISION That wide FOV also makes the ULTRA purpose-built for dual-band setups: thermal over one eye, a PVS-14 or other NV monocular over the other. Because the ULTRA's field of view closes in on that of a PVS-14, the two images fuse far more naturally. Night vision delivers environmental detail, depth, and context; thermal delivers instant heat detection. The MICRO 2 takes it further with dedicated NV Highlight and NV Outline modes, purpose-built for dual-band use. Instead of a conventional full-frame thermal image, these modes strip out low-temperature ambient clutter and isolate the signatures that matter. Highlight Mode renders heat sources as a simplified highlighted image, Outline Mode reduces them to clean thermal outlines. That makes it far easier for your brain to fuse the two feeds. Rather than reconciling two competing full-frame images, the ULTRA hands you the thermal data that counts: location and shape, while NV carries the environmental picture. For anyone running a dual-band setup, the MICRO 2 ULTRA delivers the most integrated approach to thermal/NV fusion available today. BUILT FOR MOVEMENT Helmet-mounted thermal isn't just about resolution. The image has to keep pace with the user. The ULTRA's FastEngine low-latency architecture delivers more than a 100% performance gain over conventional 1280 thermal systems. Lower latency keeps the thermal picture locked to head movement, footwork, and target tracking, with minimal lag and disconnect. A 60 Hz refresh rate and 0.1-second seamless shutter cut motion artifacts and interruptions even further. True Sleep drops the system into an ultra-low-power state during downtime, and auto flip-to-standby kills power the moment the unit is flipped out of position. Power-Saving Mode stretches runtime to 6 hours on a single 18650 battery. THERMAL CLIP-ON: 1280 RESOLUTION AT HIGHER MAGNIFICATION The MICRO 2 ULTRA doubles as a high-performance thermal clip-on, compatible with a broad range of daytime optics. The RH25 V2 topped out supporting day scopes to 6× magnification. The ULTRA pushes that to 10×. That jump is a direct result of the ULTRA's resolution upgrade. Its 1280 × 960 sensor captures 4x the pixel count of the RH25 V2's 640 × 480 sensor, backed by a 2560 × 2560 circular AMOLED display that delivers the resolution to actually use that extra data. Higher magnification demands more image information. With 4x the sensor pixels and a significantly sharper display, the ULTRA holds a clean, usable thermal image even as magnification climbs. That makes it a serious clip-on option for higher-power day optics, while its 1× base magnification and wide FOV keep it just as capable on lower-power setups. Clip-on performance isn't just about the sensor. It's about how the system tracks your zero. The MICRO 2 ULTRA overhauls the clip-on collimation and adjustment logic that shaped the RH25 V2, giving users a more precise, more reliable process for getting the thermal image aligned to point of impact. The ULTRA supports three independent profiles with numerical zero values, so you can save distinct zeros across different platforms or day-optic setups and switch between them with confidence instead of re-zeroing from scratch every time you swap platforms. The clip-on UI has also been reworked from the ground up. Menu elements and on-screen data are positioned so essential information, battery status, and mode indicators stay visible without occluding the sight picture or crowding the target area. The result is a cleaner, faster experience for anyone running the ULTRA in front of a day optic on the range or in the field. DEDICATED CLIP-ON REMOTE The ULTRA ships with a dedicated wireless remote built for mounted use on any platform. It puts video recording, screen brightness, and menu access at your fingertips. An integrated scroll wheel drives digital magnification and menu navigation without ever taking your hands off the gun. For hunters, that means a streamlined clip-on system that bolts onto your existing daytime optic while keeping every essential control within reach. The ULTRA moves from scanner to clip-on thermal without forcing you onto a different platform. HANDHELD THERMAL SCANNER: MORE DATA IN EVERY SCAN The MICRO 2 ULTRA holds its own as a standalone handheld thermal monocular and scanner. Its 1280 × 960 sensor captures 4x the pixel count of the RH25 V2, pulling in significantly more scene data. Paired with the 34.2° × 25.9° ultra-wide FOV, it's built to cover ground fast while retaining the resolution to actually work the details once you find them. At 1× base magnification, you get the ULTRA's full native FOV for search and detection. When a heat signature pulls your attention, up to 8× digital magnification lets you close in without swapping devices. That combination of high-res thermal and ultra-wide FOV makes the ULTRA a standout for hunting, predator control, property scanning, wildlife observation, and general low-light field use. The upgraded 2560 × 2560 circular AMOLED display gives you a bigger, sharper viewing experience and puts the 1280 × 960 sensor's extra data to full use. For users who need a compact high-res handheld scanner, the ULTRA delivers wide-area detection alongside the image detail to confirm what you're looking at. THERMAL OPTIC: COMPACT, HIGH-RES, NO COMPROMISES The MICRO 2 ULTRA also runs as a dedicated thermal optic, putting its sensor and display to work behind the trigger. With 1× base magnification and up to 8× digital zoom, the ULTRA gives you a wide sight picture at native mag, then lets you push in progressively as the engagement demands more detail. The 1280 × 960 sensor delivers 4x the pixel count of the RH25 V2, and the 2560 × 2560 display gives you the resolution to make that extra data count. PICTURE-IN-PICTURE The ULTRA brings PIP, Picture-in-Picture, to the MICRO platform, available in sight mode. PIP keeps the full field of view live in the primary image while opening a magnified window around the target and reticle. That means you can refine your picture without sacrificing situational awareness of what's happening around it. Customizable reticles, multiple zero profiles, app-based zeroing, adjustable reticle brightness, and the included remote give you every control you'd expect from a modern thermal, packed into the compact form factor the MICRO platform is built on. ONE OPTIC. FOUR ROLES. The MICRO 2 ULTRA sets a new bar for what a compact multi-function thermal optic can do: 1280 × 960 resolution, an ultra-wide 34.2° × 25.9° FOV, 2560 × 2560 display, low latency, 1× base magnification, 8× digital zoom, and 10× clip-on capability, in the smallest 1280 thermal platform on the market. More than that, it performs across every configuration: helmet-mounted monocular, thermal binocular, dual-band NV, handheld scanner, clip-on, and dedicated optic. Every mode is built to leverage the ULTRA's full hardware and software stack, not bolted on as an afterthought. Beyond the headline upgrades, the ULTRA rounds out the experience with a set of quality-of-life improvements users have been asking for. Video recording jumps to 1080p for sharper footage in the field. The overall UI has been simplified for faster navigation and fewer menu layers to dig through. Digital zoom has been smoothed out for a more natural transition as you magnify. And the ULTRA ships standard with cold-weather batteries rated down to -40°F, so performance holds up when conditions turn brutal. The ULTRA also carries forward the durability the RH25 lineup built its reputation on. It retains the same IP67 water and dust resistance as the original RH25 and RH25 V2, so it's built to take the same abuse in the field. Onboard storage gets a bump too, with 64GB of built-in capacity for recorded footage and images. For any user who wants one thermal system capable of adapting to whatever the situation demands, the MICRO 2 ULTRA stands alone. It gives you the resolution to identify, the field of view to scan, the magnification to close in, the flexibility to reconfigure on the fly, and the performance to trust when it counts. If you're after the most capable do-it-all thermal optic on the market, this is it.
