NocPix LUMI H35 Thermal Imaging Monocular

The LUMI H35 sits at the top of the standard LUMI range thanks to its high-resolution 640×512 thermal detector with a 12μm pixel pitch.

Compared with the 384×288 detector used by the L35, the H35 captures substantially more thermal information. This improves fine detail and target definition and gives the H35 a wider field of view when both models are paired with their 35mm objective lenses.

The detector is rated at ≤18mK NETD. A low NETD figure means the sensor can distinguish smaller differences in temperature, helping preserve useful detail when natural thermal contrast is reduced by damp, foggy or overcast conditions.

The H35 uses a fast 35mm F0.9 germanium objective lens. The F0.9 aperture allows more infrared energy to reach the thermal detector than a conventional F1.0 design, helping the sensor produce a brighter and more informative thermal image.

Combined with the 640×512 sensor, the 35mm focal length provides 2.5× base magnification and a 12.5° × 9.4° field of view, equivalent to approximately 22m × 16m at 100 metres.

This makes the H35 particularly versatile. It retains enough field of view for efficient scanning while still providing useful native magnification for observing heat sources at distance.

The LUMI H35 starts at 2.5× base magnification and provides digital magnification up to 20×.

NocPix specifies a maximum thermal detection range of up to 1,800 metres using a standard 1.7m × 0.5m target at P(n)=99%.

Detection range refers to the ability to establish that a heat source is present. Recognition and positive identification take place at shorter distances and depend on target size, weather, atmospheric conditions and thermal contrast.

NocPix equips the LUMI range with its Reality+ image processing algorithms, designed to improve the presentation of the thermal information captured by the detector and reduce unwanted image noise.

The H35 also incorporates electronic image stabilisation. This can help steady the viewed image during handheld observation, particularly when digital magnification is being used and small hand movements become more noticeable.

Combined with the H35's 50Hz refresh rate, these processing features help produce a smooth and usable image when scanning or following moving heat sources.

The LUMI H35 uses a 1024×768 AMOLED display to present the thermal image through the eyepiece.

AMOLED technology provides strong contrast and deep blacks, while the 10mm exit pupil diameter is designed to make eye positioning more forgiving during handheld observation.

The dioptre can be adjusted from -5D to +5D to help users obtain a sharp view of the display without relying on their normal distance-vision correction in many situations.

Portability is one of the main reasons to choose the LUMI platform. The H35 measures approximately 143 × 47 × 74mm and weighs around 345g including its battery.

That compact form makes it easy to carry in a jacket pocket, kit bag or pouch and significantly reduces fatigue during longer handheld scanning sessions.

The small size is particularly impressive considering the H35 still incorporates a 640×512 sensor, 35mm F0.9 objective, recording system, Wi-Fi capability and removable battery.

The NocPix LUMI H35 is powered by a replaceable rechargeable 18650 Li-ion battery. The removable design means the battery can be exchanged rather than requiring the monocular to be taken out of use while a permanently installed battery recharges.

NocPix also incorporates reverse-polarity battery support, allowing the compatible 18650 cell to power the device regardless of which way it is inserted. This is particularly useful when replacing a battery in darkness.

Battery Type	Replaceable rechargeable 18650 Li-ion
Battery System	Removable with reverse-polarity support
Maximum Stated Runtime	Up to 4.5 hours
External Power	5V USB Type-C

Actual operating time depends on temperature and the use of functions such as Wi-Fi, photography and video recording. A spare compatible 18650 battery can be carried for extended observation sessions.

The LUMI H35 incorporates 32GB of internal storage and supports both thermal photography and video recording.

A built-in microphone is also supported, allowing compatible video recordings to include audio. This makes it easy to record observations directly through the monocular without needing a separate recording device.

The LUMI H35 carries an IP67 ingress-protection rating, helping protect the monocular against dust and water during outdoor use.

NocPix specifies an operating-temperature range of -20°C to +50°C, allowing the H35 to be used across a broad range of seasonal and weather conditions.

The H35 and L35 use the same 35mm F0.9 objective lens, but their thermal detectors produce noticeably different viewing characteristics.

LUMI H35	640×512 | 2.5–20× | 12.5° × 9.4° FOV | 1,800m detection
LUMI L35	384×288 | 4–16× | 7.5° × 5.7° FOV | 1,800m detection

The H35's larger 640×512 detector gives it substantially more thermal resolution and a much wider field of view. Its lower 2.5× starting magnification also makes scanning easier.

The L35 starts at 4× and produces a narrower view, making it a more affordable option for users who prefer greater native magnification and do not require the resolution or wider view of the H35.

The LUMI H35 and H35R share the same core 640×512 thermal resolution, 35mm F0.9 objective lens, 2.5× base magnification and 12.5° × 9.4° field of view.

The major difference is the laser rangefinder. The H35 is the standard compact thermal monocular, while the H35R adds an integrated LRF for measuring distance directly through the device.

LUMI P13 — the compact entry point to the range, with a 256×192 sensor and wide 13mm lens.

LUMI L35 — a 384×288, 35mm model with higher 4× base magnification for users wanting greater native reach at a lower price than the H-series.

LUMI L35R — the 384×288 35mm platform with integrated laser ranging.

LUMI H35 — the premium standard LUMI, combining a 640×512 detector with a wide field of view and compact 345g design.

LUMI H35R — choose this when you want the 640×512 H35 platform together with an integrated laser rangefinder.
