What is the correct and official terminology to use when referring to the iRay RH25 V2, and which common terms are not official designations?

When referring to this advanced thermal imaging device, the official and most accurate terms are iRay Rico Micro V2 (often followed by the specific model, RH25 V2, as it's part of this series), RH25 V2 (as the direct model identifier), and iRay RH25 V2 (a commonly accepted and clear reference to the model from iRay). These designations ensure clarity and precision.

While other terms might be used colloquially or in search queries, the following are not official product names, though some indicate aspects of the product or how users might search for it:

• iRay RH25 V2 for sale: This phrase is typically used in sales listings or search queries to find the product available for purchase, rather than being an official name for the device itself.
• rh25v2 / iRay rh25v2: These are informal stylings that omit the space (e.g., "rh25 v2" or "iRay RH25 V2"). While understandable, they are not the formally presented product names.
• Micro RH25 V2: This term combines "Micro" from the "RICO MICRO" series name with the specific model "RH25 V2". It points to the correct product line but isn't the full official model designation on its own.
• InfiRay RH25 V2: "InfiRay" is the overarching brand of the manufacturer (InfiRay Outdoor) and the sensor technology (InfiRay Micro II sensor). While the product is from InfiRay, the common product branding in these documents uses "iRay" or specifies the "RICO Micro" series.
• RH 25 V2: This is a minor stylistic variation of the acceptable "RH25 V2," with an added space. It clearly refers to the correct model.
