S2 Mini Specifications
Sensor & Image
+
The S2 Mini uses a 256×192 thermal sensor with <25 mK NETD sensitivity, allowing it to distinguish subtle temperature differences in complex scenes. This results in improved contrast, clearer separation between objects, and reduced visual noise in low-visibility environments.
A 60Hz refresh rate ensures smooth image output during movement and scanning, maintaining clarity without lag or motion blur.
Display
+
The integrated 1.5 inch display is optimized for thermal clarity and readability during extended use. Image rendering prioritizes contrast and edge definition, allowing heat signatures to remain distinct without oversharpening or artificial enhancement.
Display settings are designed to remain usable across varying lighting conditions and viewing scenarios.
Power & Battery
+
With a runtime of 5 hours, the S2 Mini is powered by rechargeable batteries(2x included) designed for stable output during continuous operation. Power management is optimized to balance performance and runtime without compromising image quality.
Charging is straightforward via the included Charger
Body
+
Weighing approximately 115 grams, the S2 Mini maintains a compact form factor comparable to a standard red dot sight. Its low-profile design allows it to integrate seamlessly into mounted configurations without adding unnecessary bulk.
The housing is engineered for durability while keeping overall weight to a minimum.
Environmental Resistance
+
The optic is built to operate reliably in demanding environments. Its IP67 rated construction is designed to withstand exposure to dust, moisture, and temperature variation commonly encountered during night observation.
Performance remains consistent across changing conditions without requiring frequent recalibration.
About Nightward Optics
Thermal shouldn't cost a month's rent.
For years, getting into thermal meant spending $2,000 or more, or rolling the dice on an overseas listing with no support and no way to return it.
We started Nightward Optics to offer a better option. We partner with established thermal manufacturers and pick hardware that actually performs in the field. Then we handle everything that ordering overseas doesn't: every unit is checked before it ships, it comes with the mounts and batteries you need, and if something goes wrong, you deal with people who answer.
What you get with Nightward:
Tested before it ships. Free insured shipping in 3–5 days. 30-day returns. A lifetime warranty. Real support from real people.
We're hunters and shooters too. We sell the gear we'd want on our own rifles, and we stand behind every unit that leaves our hands.
