Product Overview

RIX STRIDE ST6 Lite is built for people who actually get out and do the work at night – hunters, cocky’s, and blokes running fence lines or stock checks after dark. You’re getting a 640×512, 12 μm sensor with <20 mK NETD, so heat signatures pop hard against the background instead of smearing into a fuzzy mess. The 25 mm F1.0 lens, true 1× base magnification and wide 17.5° × 13.1° field of view make it ideal for scanning on the move, whether you’re on foot, in the ute, or running it helmet‑mounted. At 205 g, it’s genuinely lightweight, so it won’t drag your lid down or chew up space in the pack. In the paddock it’s simple and effective: 1–6× magnification lets you go from close‑in scanning around the yards to tracking out past 1,300 m, and the 50 Hz refresh rate keeps things smooth when you’re panning or driving. The OLED 1024×768 display gives you a crisp, high‑contrast image, and six colour palettes mean you can tune the view for fog, timber, or open country and keep your eyes fresh on long nights. A single 18650 battery gives around four hours of runtime, with USB‑C power on tap if you want to run a bank off the dash. Onboard recording (32 GB) and Wi‑Fi make it easy to grab footage or share what you’re seeing without stuffing around with extra gear – it’s a no‑nonsense, high‑performance thermal that just works in Aussie conditions.
