    Green Eotech

    Looks like they are available for order now. What do y’all think? I like eotechs because they are the clearest image with my astigmatism. (May need a prescription update too) Green is supposed to possibly help with this too, easier to pick up, less fatigue, etc.

    The con is 600hr battery life.

    That’s the same battery life they’ve always had so no difference there. I would like to try one of these, it’s widely accepted for lasers.

    I saw a video with an eotech rep and the old ones were 900 hours or something but are now 2500 or 3500.

    So that’s a huge difference between the green and red. But I think I’ll give one a go. Midway has a good price on them.

    The double AA models can have up to 1,000 hours with lithium batteries, 600 with alkaline. The CR123 models are only 600. I'm not aware of and have never heard of any of their sights having more than that.

    I see green a lot better than red. My fiber optic sights on my shotguns and bow are green. If they come with red I switch them out first thing. A green Eotech is very intriguing. Will definitely give it a look.

    Has anyone seen those yet? I checked their website yesterday before posting and there was no mention of battery life like that in any of the product descriptions.

    Would love to see a reticle pic posted. The ones posted in Google images are pretty cruddy.
