The result is a more versatile tool that seamlessly integrates with mobile technology, offering thermal resolution of 256 x 192 pixels, real time SuperIR image enhancement for sharper, clearer visuals, dual compatibility with iOS and Android, expanding usability and two lens options: focus-free wide-angle and manual focus (Mini2 Plus) for adaptable imaging solutions
“With the new versions of the Mini2 and Mini2 Plus, we’ve taken the range to the next level by applying our proprietary SuperIR technology and adding iOS compatibility,” says Will Jing of HIKMICRO. “These features enhance the versatility of the device, offering even greater precision and ease of use. There are also enhanced compatibility solutions which make the range suitable for Android devices, the latest iPhone 15 series, iPads, tablets and Windows PC laptops.”
Both products are compatible with HIKMICRO’s free Viewer App (downloadable from the Apple Store or Google Play) allowing users to view, adjust, analyse and share their images. Windows PC users can also access Analyzer Software, free and downloadable from the HIKMICRO website, which allows you to explore, track live temperatures, report, track, provide professional analysis and much more.

Equipped to meet the needs of electricians, plumbers, HVAC professionals and automotive technicians, the range brings thermal imaging technology into the hands of more users at an affordable price.
In addition to construction and trade applications, the new HIKMICRO Mini2 V2 and Mini2 Plus V2 thermal cameras also excel in everyday home scenarios, offering practical uses in the kitchen and pet care.

Pet owners can also benefit by using these thermal cameras to assess the temperature of their pets’ living environments, ensuring their comfort and well-being. These high-precision, affordable tools are ideal for professionals who need reliable thermal data on the go.
The Mini2 V2 and Mini2 Plus V2 are tailored to different user needs with their choice of focus-free and manual focus lens options. Both cameras provide flexibility for a range of scenarios:
- Mini2 V2: This focus-free model is equipped with a wide-angle lens that offers a broad field of view, ideal for scanning large areas such as walls, floors, and building facades. It’s the perfect tool for quickly detecting issues like air leaks, insulation problems and moisture infiltration on a large scale.
- Mini2 Plus V2: For more precise, detailed inspections, the Mini2 Plus features a manually adjustable focus, making it possible to inspect small objects like circuit boards or perform distant inspections of electrical or mechanical components. This adaptability makes the Mini2 Plus especially useful for professionals needing to inspect both near and far objects safely.
Both models are equipped with the latest HIKMICRO Viewer App, providing an intuitive interface for image capture, analysis, and sharing. The app supports multiple colour palettes, measurement tools and infrared modes, ensuring users can tailor their thermal imaging experience to their specific needs. Weighing just 20-24 grams and featuring a compact aluminium alloy housing, both the Mini2 V2 and Mini2 Plus V2 are built to withstand tough work environments.
