More Information

High performance thermal – At the core of the Lynx 2.0 19mm is HIKMICRO’s latest generation, 384px Sub 20 mK NETD sensor that pairs with the advanced, F1.0 lens to detect very small changes in temperature and deliver an incredibly detailed image, even in the most challenging conditions. The 15mm Focal length offers 1.8x base mag with up to 8x digital magnification giving you 1.8-14.4x magnification range.   

Compact and powerful - Built on a robust magnesium-alloy chassis, the Lynx 2.0 has a distinctly premium feel from the first time you pick it up. The updated chassis design also features a removable 18650 battery delivering up to 6.5 hours of run time. The ergonomic buttons fall easily to hand and allow you to intuitively take control of the main features, even in complete darkness. The large OLED screen gives a great view of your surroundings while the soft eyecup prevents unwanted light spill.  

Digital connectivity – The Lynx 2.0 is supplied with the latest HIKMICRO software which gives you fast access to commonly used options like brightness and contrast and allows you to add a PIP screen to your monocular. The Lynx 2.0 offers a choice of four thermal colour profiles, the ability to record pictures or video and WiFi to allow you to connect, stream and control from the HIKMICRO sight app. 

The lower the NETD value, the better the imaging 

Thermal imaging works by sensing tiny differences in temperature, and the more sensitive the sensor is to minute contrasts, the better and more clear the image in the viewfinder. Lynx 2.0’s sub 20mK NETD sensors capture the sharpest, most informative images, even in challenging conditions; this means that you can not just find the heat of people, animals and birds, but capture the detail of the surroundings to aid identification. 

Convenience is king 

The Lynx 2.0 has been redesigned to maximise convenience in every area. The size and weight, at under 175mm in length and under 300g with battery, combine with the rugged build and comfortable rounded shape to produce a powerful device that can easily be carried and used at all times. The new power system uses industry-standard rechargeable 18650 batteries for a continuous run-time of up to 6.5 hours, which can be renewed by a quick switch of the battery to a (supplied) spare. Lynx 2.0 also features a 3 second Fast Boot time, to easily keep pace with the action in the field. 

Integrated phone or tablet hotspot 

HIKMICRO’s Sight App links Lynx 2.0 to your phone or tablet, creating a second display and adding functionality: You can control the device via the app, view and share recorded images and video, share the thermal view with others in your group, and control and update the software settings. 

The Lynx 2.0 is the perfect, versatile companion device for ecological survey, wildlife observation, search & rescue and security applications. The affordable price, high performance and robust, proven build make it a natural choice and it seems well set to take over the best-seller crown from its much-loved predecessor. 

Our experts say:
Handheld thermal spotters are an invaluable tool for birdwatchers offering portability and ease of use in the field. By scanning the environment, body heat signatures are easily identified in challenging conditions where avian life would usually remain hidden. Beyond conventional viewing devices, thermal monoculars are an indispensable device for tracking/locating birds in flight, capturing their movements against the backdrop of the sky - this is particularly useful for observing nocturnal or migratory species during low light.
With their versatility and effectiveness, handheld thermal spotters enhance the birdwatching experience, providing enthusiasts with new insights and opportunities to observe wildlife.
