Nocpix Batteries
Nocpix batteries are the factory spares for your Nocpix and RICO thermal optics. Carrying a charged spare is the simplest way to stay on a stand through a long, cold night, because low temperatures pull runtime down on any lithium cell.
Which Nocpix battery you need
- RICO Mk2 IBP-5 (AC110), 4400 mAh. The quick-change pack for the RICO Mk2 line.
- Nocpix IBP-7 Rechargeable Battery. A Nocpix rechargeable pack; check your manual or call us to confirm your model takes it.
- Nocpix IRB-2 18650 Rechargeable Battery. A single 18650 lithium-ion cell for Nocpix devices that run on 18650s.
The easiest way to choose is to look at the battery your optic shipped with and match the part number. Using the maker's own battery means the fit, voltage and charging behavior are what the optic was designed around.
Two things to know before you order. Batteries can't be returned once sold, so a quick call to confirm the part is worth it. And if your device takes standard 18650 cells, you will find more options, including low-temperature cells, in our 18650 batteries category. A case from battery cases and protectors keeps spare packs from shorting in a pocket.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the best 18650 battery for a Nocpix optic or flashlight?
For a Nocpix device that runs on 18650 cells, the Nocpix IRB-2 is the safe choice because it is the cell Nocpix makes for its own optics. In a flashlight or other gear, a protected 3500mAh cell from a known maker such as KeepPower does the job. Avoid unbranded cells with oversized capacity labels.
What brand of rechargeable battery is the best?
For an optic, the best rechargeable is usually the one its maker builds for it. A Nocpix pack matches the voltage, size and contacts your Nocpix or RICO scope expects, so you avoid loose fits and charging problems. Third-party cells can work in devices that take standard sizes, but read your manual first.
Who has the longest lasting rechargeable batteries?
Runtime comes down to capacity and conditions more than brand. Capacity is listed in mAh; the RICO Mk2 IBP-5 pack here is rated 4400 mAh. Cold weather, Wi-Fi, recording and a laser rangefinder all shorten it. On long winter sits, keep the spare in an inside pocket so it stays warm until you swap it in.
What are the top battery brands for thermal optics?
Most thermal makers, including Nocpix, RIX and PARD, sell their own batteries, and those are the first choice for each brand's devices. For standard 18650 cells, KeepPower is one name we stock in regular and low-temperature versions. Brand matters less than buying genuine, protected cells from a seller who knows the products.
