HIKMICRO Thermal Scopes

The HIKMICRO NEOS range is a lightweight, standalone thermal rifle scope line. No day scope needed; just mount it and hunt from dusk to dawn. It comes in three models: the NE25 is the featherweight entry point at 540g, the NH25L steps up with a built-in rangefinder, and the flagship NH35L pushes detection out to 1800m with a sharper 384×288 sensor and ballistic calculator.

For Aussie conditions, the NE25 suits foxes and rabbits on the home block, where you don't need huge range. Step up to the NH35L if you're covering bigger paddocks or chasing pigs at distance; the built-in laser rangefinder takes the guesswork out of longer shots.

Price Range: $1,999 - $2,999

The HIKMICRO Stellar is a premium thermal riflescope line, running from the SH35L and SQ35L up to the flagship SX60LS with its 1280×1024 sensor, 50 Hz refresh, and sub-15 mK sensitivity. The "L" models add a 1000m laser rangefinder and ballistic calculator, and the whole range is IP67-rated to handle dust, rain, and rough Aussie terrain without missing zero.

This is the pick for serious hunters and professional pest controllers running foxes, pigs, and deer across big country. The SX60LS in particular holds up in fog, heat-soaked ground, and low-contrast conditions where cheaper thermals start to struggle; worth the spend if you're out most nights.

Price Range: $3,499 - $10,000

The HIKMICRO Thunder range is a versatile thermal scope series designed for hunters who want reliable thermal imaging for day and night hunting. The range includes standalone thermal scopes such as the TE19, TE25 and TQ models, with selected models offering high-resolution sensors, low NETD and long detection ranges. The TQ35C 3.0 is a dedicated clip-on model, giving hunters the option to add thermal imaging to an existing day scope.

The Thunder range offers options for different hunting conditions and budgets, from the compact TE19 and TE25 models through to the higher-performance TQ series. With features such as high-sensitivity thermal sensors, IP67 protection and long detection ranges, Thunder is well suited to fox, pig and other pest-control applications across Australian hunting environments.

Price Range: $1,499 - $5,999

The HIKMICRO Panther is built around versatility, with a wide magnification range (roughly 3x–24x across the range) that lets you shoot close without sacrificing field of view, then zoom in as needed. The PH-series uses a smaller lens for lighter carry, while the PQ-series steps up to a 640×512 sensor for sharper detail, with a laser rangefinder standard across the lineup.

That range makes the PH35L a strong pick for fast fox and rabbit work at closer range, while the PQ50L handles mid-range pig and deer shooting where you need reach and clarity at higher magnification.

Price Range: $4,299 - $6,299

Detection range comes down mostly to lens size; the bigger the lens, the further out a scope can pick up a heat signature. As a rough guide:

• 25mm lens: Detection up to ~1,200m
• 35mm lens: Detection up to ~1,800m
• 50mm lens: Detection up to ~2,600m
• 60mm lens: Detection up to ~3,100m

Take the HIKMICRO Thunder TQ35C, a 35mm clip-on with detection out to 1,800m. Plenty of reach for fox and pig work across paddocks and timber lines, where you're rarely shooting past a few hundred metres anyway. At the top end, the HIKMICRO Stellar SX60L 3.0 runs a 60mm lens with detection out to 3,100m, built for hunters glassing wide-open country or long valleys where game shows up as a dot on the horizon well before it's in range.

Bigger lens, longer detection — but also more size, weight, and cost. For most Australian hunting on standard-sized properties, a 35mm or 50mm setup covers you fine. Go 60mm only if you're regularly scanning genuinely long, open ground where that extra reach actually gets used.

If You're Hunting...	Go With	Why It Works	Price
Foxes or feral pests past ~150m	Stellar SQ50L	The 50mm lens gives you the reach, while the 640 sensor maintains a wide field of view so you don't lose the target. The built-in rangefinder is especially useful when shooting at longer distances.	$5,849.00
Closer pest work under ~150m	NEOS NH35L	A 35mm-class lens is plenty for this range. A rangefinder is a useful extra, but it isn't essential.	$2,999.00
Maximum detail on long, open country	Stellar SX60LS	The 60mm lens and 1280 sensor provide serious detail at distance. Choose this when you know you need the extra range rather than simply buying the highest specification.	$9,269.00
Keeping your existing day scope	Thunder TQ50CL	As a clip-on, it adds thermal capability to the scope you already trust instead of replacing it. The lens size still determines how far you can detect targets.	$5,499.00

Note: Use a handheld thermal spotter, thermal monocular, or thermal binocular to identify game before shouldering an air rifle. Never scan for animals through a scoped rifle—this is a basic firearm safety practice.

The best depends on your hunt. For open-country fox and feral work past 150m, the Stellar SQ50L is the go-to 50mm Laser Rangefinder scope. Closer country? The SH35L or NEOS NH35L covers you well.

Hikmicro thermals are designed, developed, and built in Hangzhou, China, where a large, advanced in‑house manufacturing facility is located.

Head to HIKMICRO's Download Center, grab the firmware package for your exact model, then follow the update steps via the HIKMICRO Sight app or USB transfer, depending on your device.

Every HIKMICRO thermal, night vision, and multispectrum product comes with a manufacturer warranty. Buy through Good Hunt and you get full local warranty support too — no dealing with overseas returns if something goes wrong.

Download the HIKMICRO Sight app, then switch on your device's Wi-Fi hotspot in its settings. Connect to that network from your phone's Wi-Fi list, open the app, and pair the unit to start viewing and controlling it live.

Mount the Alpex 4K securely and check it's focused and aligned on the rifle. Bore sight at close range, around 25–50m, to get on paper, then move out to your preferred zero distance, usually 50m or 100m for most hunting setups.

From a steady rest, fire a controlled 2–3 shot group, then freeze the image in the device's zeroing menu. Use the adjustment controls to walk the reticle onto the centre of your shot group, save the zero, then fire a confirmation group to check its holding. If you run more than one calibre or rifle, the Alpex 4K lets you store multiple zero profiles, so you're not re-zeroing every time you switch setups.
