NOCPIX MATE LITE L38

The NOCPIX MATE LITE L38 is a thermal clip-on with a 384×288 / 12 µm sensor, NETD ≤ 15 mK, a 60 Hz refresh rate and a 38 mm F1.0 lens, intended mainly for hunting as a clip-on in front of a daytime riflescope.

Main technical parameters

• Sensor: 384 × 288 px, VOx, pixel pitch 12 µm.

• Sensitivity: NETD ≤ 15 mK – very good detail legibility even in fog, rain and low thermal contrast.

• Refresh rate: 60 Hz – a smooth image when tracking game on the move.

• Lens: 38 mm, F1.0 aperture – a versatile compromise between width of view and range.

• Field of view: approx. 6.9 × 5.2°; linear FOV approximately 12.3 × 9.2 m at 100 m.

• Detection range: approximately 1900–1950 m on a human figure/large game.

• Display: 1920 × 1080 (Full HD) internal display.

Construction and power

• Weight: approximately 399 g – among the lighter clip-ons, suitable for common hunting rifles without noticeably unbalancing them.

• Power: a removable 18650-type Li-ion battery, allowing you to carry spare cells in the field.

• Mounting: designed as a clip-on in front of a daytime riflescope, typically via quick-release adapters (various lens diameters, supplied separately by the manufacturer).

• Controls: simple buttons on the top; the design aims for user- friendliness even for less experienced thermal imaging users.

Suitable use in practice

• Primary purpose: all-round hunting of foxes, wild boar and deer at distances up to about 150–200 m in normal conditions, more in ideal weather.

• Character: a 'lite' version – focused on simple use and a lower price while still offering very solid parameters (384 sensor, 15 mK) compared with high-end 640 models.

• Typical user: a hunter who wants to move from night vision to thermal imaging without an extreme investment, but does not want to go full low-end.

Quick pluses 

Advantages:

• Very good NETD (≤15 mK) in this price class.

• 60 Hz, 38 mm F1.0 – usable from high seats to typical field/forest shooting.

• Low weight, 18650 battery, simple controls.
