Dali RS3 35-384 Thermal Rifle Scope

• 384x288 VOx sensor: The uncooled thermal sensor with 12.00 μm pixel pitch gives this riflescope a clear thermal image while keeping the housing compact, which helps when scanning and shooting in darkness or poor visibility.
• 35.00 mm objective lens: This lens size balances image detail and field coverage, making the scope practical for general hunting use where target recognition and situational awareness both matter.
• 50.00 Hz refresh rate: A faster refresh rate keeps moving animals and panning scenes looking smoother, which makes tracking easier and reduces the lag that can distract during follow-up shots.
• 1280x960 LCOS display: The high-resolution display presents the thermal image with a more refined viewing experience at the eyepiece, helping the shooter judge shape and movement with less eye strain.
• Rechargeable battery with USB-C: Internal rechargeable power and a USB-C port simplify charging in the field and reduce dependence on disposable batteries during longer outings.

About the Dali RS Series

The Dali RS series is built as a family of dedicated thermal riflescopes for users who need a practical night-hunting optic rather than a general observation device. In DALI’s lineup, the series focuses on the core functions that matter most in a weapon sight: a stable thermal image, straightforward controls, onboard recording, and a form factor suited to rifle mounting. The range covers different detector resolutions and lens sizes, allowing the series to address both wider-area scanning and more deliberate target identification at longer distances.

Rechargeable power, a USB-C interface, and integrated photo and video capture are central to the series concept, giving the user a thermal scope that is not limited to aiming alone. The RS family also emphasizes practical digital functions such as multiple zoom steps and hotspot tracking, features that help users adapt the image to terrain, target size, and engagement distance. Across the series, the design philosophy is clear: combine a dedicated thermal sight format with the imaging advantages of an uncooled detector system, so the optic remains suitable for hunting optics use in darkness, fog, brush, and other conditions where conventional glass struggles.

About the Dali RS3 35-384 Thermal Rifle Scope

The Dali RS3 35-384 Thermal Rifle Scope is configured as a compact thermal hunting optic with a 35.00 mm objective lens and a 384x288 VOx uncooled sensor. That combination makes it well suited to users who want a balanced setup for general-purpose night shooting: enough image detail for confident target observation, but without the narrower view and added bulk that often come with larger-lens thermal scopes. Its 7.50 ° field of view supports scanning over feeding areas, woodland edges, and open ground while still giving the image scale needed for shot placement.

The sensor’s 12.00 μm pixel pitch and 40.00 mK NETD help the scope separate subtle heat differences, which is especially useful when animals blend into cluttered backgrounds or when ambient conditions reduce contrast. A 50.00 Hz refresh rate keeps motion looking fluid during panning and target tracking, an important advantage when the scene is changing quickly. The 1280x960 LCOS display gives the eyepiece image a more defined presentation, helping the shooter interpret thermal outlines and movement with less visual fatigue over longer sessions.

In practical use, the RS3 also benefits from integrated image capture and video recording, allowing observations and shots to be documented without adding external accessories. Its rechargeable battery, USB-C port, and stated 5.00 h battery life support straightforward field use, while the waterproof, fogproof, rubberized housing is better suited to cold mornings, damp vegetation, and rough handling than a more delicate optic. With no built-in rangefinder or image stabilizer, the design stays focused on the essentials of a dedicated thermal riflescope.

About Dali

DALI traces its origins to the Zhejiang Provincial Testing Technology Research Institute, established in 1984. Based in Hangzhou, Zhejiang, China, the company developed from a research background into a manufacturer focused on infrared and optoelectronic systems. It was restructured in 2001 and later listed on the Shenzhen Stock Exchange in February 2008.

Its core expertise includes infrared core components, uncooled focal-plane-array detectors, thermal-imaging cameras and systems, as well as broader optoelectronic and inertial-navigation products. Within the outdoor market, DALI’s thermal range covers monoculars, riflescopes, and binoculars, while IRtech serves as the professional thermal-imaging brand associated with the company. That background is relevant here because it places the RS-series riflescopes within a manufacturer whose experience is rooted in detector and thermal-system development rather than in conventional daytime sporting optics alone.
