HS210M

One Thermal. Four Ways to Deploy. 

The HYDRA-Mini HS210M is a 4-in-1 thermal optic that brings together Standalone, Handheld, Helmet-Mounted, and Clip-On capabilities in a single unit. Ultra-lightweight at 11.3 oz, it delivers exceptional thermal performance in a palm-sized package, seamlessly adapting to observation, hunting, and field operations.

- Standalone

Use the HS210M as a dedicated thermal scope for fast detection and engagement at close to medium ranges.

- Handheld

Detach the HS210M for handheld thermal observation, scanning, and tracking.

- Helmet-Mounted

Mount the HS210M to a helmet for hands-free thermal observation. 

Required Setup 

• A helmet with a compatible shroud and mount 
• A dovetail binocular bridge compatible with Wilcox or KVC/RQE format

Helmet-Mounted Applications

1. Thermal for Detection, Night Vision for Aiming 
2. Dual Thermal for Wider FOV and Depth Perception 
3. Add a “Brain-Fusion” Thermal Layer to Your NVG View 

- Clip-On

Mount the HS210M in front of your day optic to add thermal capability while maintaining a true 1x thermal view.  

Recommended Pairing: Day optics with a 1–2x base magnification for the best viewing experience.

Reticle: Use the day optic’s reticle for aiming and holdover while the HS210M provides the thermal image.

Mounting Height: The included QDF193 mount positions the HS210M 1.93 inches above the rail. Match your day optic to this height, or use compatible DNT quick detach mounts in 1.5-inch (QDM150, QDS150) or 1.7-inch (QDF170) heights.

Optical Zoom: In Clip-On mode, the HS210M provides a fixed 1x thermal view. To increase magnification, adjust the magnification of the day optic.

QDF193 Mount: Switch Setups in Seconds

The included QDF193 Dual Quick-Detach Flip-to-Side Mount makes switching between setups fast and effortless, with reliable zero retention after removal and reattachment. Move the HYDRA-Mini and mount together to another setup, or switch between helmet-mounted, handheld, and weapon-mounted configurations without removing screws.

Positioning the HYDRA-Mini 1.93″ above the rail, the QDF193 provides a tactical height that integrates seamlessly into quick-deploy setups.
