Thermal optics have come a long way — better image quality, longer battery life, and more features at a lower cost. One feature gaining traction across the board is the laser rangefinder (LRF), either built into the unit or available as an add-on. But not every hunter needs one. Some rely heavily on ballistic data at longer distances, while others hunt close and rarely touch the feature.
If you’re running multiple thermal devices — say, one with an LRF and one without — what if they could share range data? That’s exactly what Nocpix’s new “N-Link” tech makes possible. It wirelessly connects two compatible thermal optics, letting one send LRF data to the other in real time.
Here’s an example. You and your buddy are at the ranch, hunting coyotes. He’s scanning with a VISTA thermal monocular while you’re on the gun. He spots a pasture poodle and hits the rangefinder button: “252 yards” displays on his handheld. At the same time, you see that same range inside your ACE scope, along with a screenshot from his scanner.
You’ve already set up a cartridge profile for your .243 with 95 grain V-MAX rounds, so the scope’s ballistic computer auto-dials 2.25 MOA of drop. All that’s left is for you to break the shot.
Just like you and your hunting partner work as a team to take down hogs and coyotes, now your Nocpix optics can pair up too. Head to nocpixusa.com/n-link for full details and a list of compatible models.
