The NocPix ACE L35 Thermal Imaging Scope is the most accessible model in the original ACE thermal riflescope range. Combining a 384 × 288 thermal detector with a fast 35mm F0.9 germanium objective lens, the L35 delivers detailed thermal imaging in a conventional riflescope format. With 4–16× magnification, a smooth 60Hz refresh rate and a manufacturer-stated detection range of up to 1,800 metres, it is particularly well suited to users who want the advanced ACE platform without stepping up to the higher-resolution H50-series models.
Although it sits at the entry point of the ACE family, the L35 retains many of the technologies that define the range. These include NocPix Reality+ image processing, the Vision+ viewing system, a high-resolution 2560 × 2560 round AMOLED display, 1–3× ocular zoom, a dual-battery arrangement, 64GB internal storage and recoil-activated video recording.
The 35mm F0.9 lens and 4× starting magnification make the L35 a more focused thermal riflescope than a wide-field handheld scanner. Its conventional 30mm tube allows standard scope-ring mounting, while IP67 protection, a robust aluminium housing and substantial recoil resistance make it suitable for demanding field use.

30mm Scope Tube & Mounting Requirements
The NocPix ACE L35 features a conventional 30mm main tube and is designed for mounting using compatible riflescope rings.
Required scope ring diameter: 30mm.
It can be installed using suitable 30mm rings matched to the rifle's mounting system.
- For a compatible Picatinny or Weaver rail, use appropriate 30mm Picatinny/Weaver rings.
- For a compatible dovetail rail, use appropriate 30mm dovetail rings.
- Choose a ring height that provides sufficient clearance for the scope's objective housing and rifle components.
The ACE L35 is not a 34mm tube scope and does not use the dedicated ACE RM rail-mount arrangement.
Mounting rings are not listed among the manufacturer's standard ACE package accessories.

384 × 288 Thermal Sensor & ≤18mK Sensitivity
The ACE L35 incorporates a 384 × 288 VOx thermal detector with a 12μm pixel pitch.
Its ≤18mK NETD rating indicates the detector's ability to distinguish small temperature differences under specified test conditions.
This helps the scope reveal thermal contrast between subjects and their surroundings, even when temperature differences are relatively limited.
The L35 has fewer native thermal pixels than the ACE H50 and H50R, both of which use 640 × 512 detectors. Consequently, the H50-series models can retain more fine detail, particularly when observing distant subjects or increasing magnification.
The L35 nevertheless offers a capable thermal imaging system for customers prioritising value and the established ACE feature set.
35mm F0.9 Germanium Objective Lens
The ACE L35 uses a 35mm germanium objective lens with a fast F0.9 aperture.
This lens is designed to transmit thermal energy efficiently to the detector, supporting detailed thermal observation across a range of outdoor conditions.
The 35mm objective is smaller than the 50mm lens fitted to the ACE H50 and H50R, helping the L35 achieve a more compact overall format.
Combined with its 4× base magnification, the L35 provides a relatively focused view suited to detailed observation rather than wide-area thermal scanning.
1,800m Detection Range
NocPix specifies a maximum detection distance of up to 1,800 metres for the ACE L35.
This figure is based on the manufacturer's reference target measuring approximately 1.7 × 0.5 metres under specified test conditions.
Detection means identifying the presence of a heat source; it does not mean positively identifying the subject at the maximum stated distance.
Actual performance varies according to target size, atmospheric conditions, humidity, temperature contrast and viewing distance.
4–16× Magnification & Ocular Zoom
The ACE L35 provides a 4–16× stated magnification range.
Its 4× starting magnification is suited to more focused observation, while additional magnification allows users to examine a smaller area of the thermal image.
The NocPix Vision+ viewing system also includes a 1–3× adjustable ocular magnifier.
Ocular magnification changes the apparent size of the display image, while digital magnification enlarges the image produced by the thermal sensor.
Higher magnification narrows the effective field of view and cannot increase the native detail captured by the 384 × 288 detector.
2560 × 2560 AMOLED Display
The ACE L35 uses a 1.03-inch AMOLED display with a resolution of 2560 × 2560 pixels.
The high-resolution circular display works with the Vision+ ocular system to provide a traditional riflescope-style viewing experience.
The display has substantially more pixels than the thermal sensor, allowing the device to present menus, reticles and processed thermal images with a refined appearance.
The scope offers 50mm eye relief, an 8mm exit pupil and a dioptre adjustment range of -5D to +5D.
Reality+ Image Processing & Colour Palettes
NocPix Reality+ image processing is designed to refine thermal contrast and enhance the presentation of details within the scene.
The L35 also provides selectable thermal colour palettes, allowing the user to adjust the display to suit viewing conditions and personal preference.
Common options include white-hot, black-hot and alternative colour presentations.
The effectiveness of image enhancement depends on the quality of the thermal information available from the sensor and the surrounding environmental conditions.
60Hz Refresh Rate & Picture-in-Picture
The ACE L35 operates at a 60Hz refresh rate, providing smooth thermal image updates when observing moving subjects or changing viewing direction.
Picture-in-picture functionality allows an enlarged portion of the image to be displayed while retaining a wider view of the surrounding scene.
This can be useful when examining fine details without completely losing awareness of the original viewing area.
Dual Battery System & Operating Time
The ACE L35 uses a dual-battery arrangement consisting of an internal rechargeable 4,000mAh battery and a removable rechargeable 18650 battery.
The manufacturer's package includes two rechargeable 18650 batteries and a compatible battery charger.
This allows one removable battery to be fitted while another is carried as a charged spare.
NocPix specifies up to approximately seven hours of operating time under its test conditions at around 22°C.
Actual runtime depends on temperature, display brightness, Wi-Fi use, recording activity and other operating settings.
The USB Type-C connection supports external charging and compatible power functions.
64GB Storage, Recording & Wi-Fi
The ACE L35 includes 64GB of internal storage for photos and video recordings.
Recording features include standard video capture, audio recording and recoil-activated video recording.
Recoil-activated recording can automatically capture footage associated with a shot when correctly configured.
The scope also includes Wi-Fi connectivity for supported mobile app functions.
Recorded files can be managed using compatible device and data-transfer features.
IP67 Protection & 6,000J Recoil Resistance
The ACE L35 features a durable aluminium-alloy housing with IP67 dust and water protection.
NocPix specifies recoil resistance up to 6,000 joules, making the scope suitable for a range of compatible rifle applications when correctly mounted.
The manufacturer's stated operating temperature range is -20°C to +50°C.
Correct mounting, battery care and routine cleaning remain important for reliable long-term operation.
ACE L35 vs ACE H50

ACE L35 vs ACE H50R
The ACE H50R adds both higher-resolution thermal imaging and an integrated laser rangefinder with ballistic calculation.
| Specification | ACE L35 | ACE H50R |
|---|---|---|
| Thermal sensor | 384 × 288 | 640 × 512 |
| Objective lens | 35mm F0.9 | 50mm F0.9 |
| NETD | ≤18mK | ≤15mK |
| Detection range | 1,800m | 2,600m |
| Integrated LRF | No | Yes, 1,200m |
| Ballistic calculation | No integrated LRF-based system | Yes |
| Mounting | 30mm rings | 30mm rings |
The H50R is better suited to customers who specifically require built-in distance measurement and the additional detail of a 640 × 512 detector.
The L35 remains a more affordable route into the ACE range where those additional features are not essential.
