EOTech Parasitic Power Drain?

[Anunnaki]

They're supposed to have some parasitic drain. I owned an Exps3 for at least 2 1/2 years and never had to change the battery in it. I didn't use it often.

I purchased my EXPS2-0 11-17 after the redesign or whatever they did. I have it on a Colt 6720 that doesn’t get shot a bunch but is still on the original batteries. So 31 months and still going strong.

Bought my XPS3-2 last December, still on original batteries.

That was one of those known issues IIRC but it was intermittent. Bet they’ll fix it.

I started running the EOTech Green last year and I'm still operating on the same battery, albeit I don't think enough time has passed to justify any significant battery drain while powered down, and I do power it up and shoot it quite often. It's not a carbine I keep in readiness condition one for HD, so I'm not concerned if I need it to power up right away and spare batteries should be stored somewhere on the rifle anyway. I don't or have ever had any issues with any EOTech I've privately owned, but some guys seem have nothing but bad luck with them. That's really too bad because I don't think a lot of people would dispute its advantage in a close quarters fight.

Mine is still chunking along fine. I didn't pull the battery to test its remaining capacity. I don't know why I still keep an EO after all their problems... I guess I just like it as a reference optic.

Mine doesn’t draw down like it did before I sent it back for the upgraded internals
