Trijicon RMR Type 2 "Seal Plate" # RM63 Necessary?

[Defaultmp3]

The sealing plate does just that, it seals the bottom of the optic when mounted on a slide or mount with thru holes. It has nothing to do with the battery contacts. The Type 2 doesn’t need the battlewerx plate and is not recommended. And yes, they are expensive for what they are.

Unrelated, but I'd instantly upgrade to the Type 2s if y'all take away the battery saver feature that turns the optic to auto-adjust after 16.5 hours.

Yup, I’d be in for two. I was super bummed to see that change wasn’t announced at shot.

I haven't had any issues with my RM06 Type-2 in auto-adjust. Always seems to be the right brightness and very quickly gets brighter when I light up my 600-lumen X300U against the white walls in my house.

It may not work as well at longer ranges or against walls that aren't white, but I don't think you'd need the sight to get that much brighter, anyway.

Fwiw, i carry my 06 in auto and havent had any issue either. It is at full brightness by the time i get it in line of sight- ive tried to beat if, but i cant.

The auto on my RM06 Type 1 doesn't work well in my apartment paired with my X400UH, hence my reservations; washouts happen from most distances.

Sorry to bring up an old thread but I couldn't find anything using the search button. Do I need the sealing plate on a type 2 that will be sent to ATEI for a pro cut being milled on a Glock 19?

Thanks

The seal plate/"O" ring provides H2O proofing for the electronics/battery. While not necessary for function it's a good idea, particularly if you ever shoot in rain or it gets wet.

Thank you for the reply. There is nothing that I could see on their website about sending one in with your rmr, or purchasing one through them.

I’ve had 3 slides milled for RMRs.
The seal plate isn’t mandatory to send in for milling slide, the footprint is same as RMR base and it’s about a playing card thick.
If you don’t have one, I’d have slide milled without it and order plate while slide is at ‘smith’s.

Ok, thank you sir.
