The internal video recorder now includes audio recording and 64 GB of internal storage.

“We’re excited to announce the new V2 models of the Micro, evolving a platform our customers trust and love with new features that improve image quality and user experience,” said Pliny Gale, iRayUSA Marketing & Communications Manager. “The new RL25V2 can now be used as a clip-on thermal - a highly requested feature that was only available in the 640 model in the first generation.”
